A reporter collected data on y, the current market value, in dollars, of a certain car for various years, x, after it had been purchased new. The equation below was fit to the data. y = 16,500 - 1,500x

Questions that followed :

What does the slope of the graph of this equation represent?

What does y-intercept of the graph of this equation represent?

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the model:

y = 16,500 - 1,500x

The slope = - 1500 ; this is a negative slope and means that the dependent variable will decrease with increase in the independent variable.

This means that, the market value of a car will decrease by 1500 per unit increase in year (a yearly fall of 1500 from the market value of cars per year after purchase).

The y - intercept is the value of y (market value) when x (number of years ) = 0 ; This means that the intercept value of 16500, is the initial prove of the car ; current value when the car hasn't been used.

∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.

step-by-step explanation:

given, a ∥ b and ∠1 ≅ ∠3 .we have to prove that e ∥ f

we know that ∠1≅∠3 and that a || b because they are given. we see that by the alternate exterior angles theorem. therefore, ∠2≅∠3 by the transitive property. so, we can conclude that e || f by the converse alternate exterior angles theorem.

we have to fill the missing statement.

transitivity property states that if a = b and b = c, then a = c.

now, given ∠1≅∠3 and by transitivity property ∠2≅∠3 .

hence, to apply transitivity property one angle must be common which is not in result after applying this property which is ∠1.

the only options in which ∠1 is present are ∠1 and ∠2, ∠1 and ∠4

∠1 and ∠4 is not possible ∵ after applying transitivity we didn't get ∠4.

hence, the missing statement is ∠1≅∠2.

so, ∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.

answer: 30

step-by-step explanation: its 30 because im a basketball player and stephen curry hits most of his shots so if you put 30 you might make the shot goodluck
