Question 94994: Ok, My son came home from school today with Math homework. He is in Algebra 1 and they have requested he have a TI-83. I intend to buy this for him but I haven't yet and he has homework tonight. The teacher only explained how to do the problem on the calulator not on paper. I know it can be done on paper but I really do not remember how to do it. I looked in his math book and the book only goes to Chapter 12 and the worksheet is for Chapter 13. I can't figure out how to solve these problems and I'm hoping for some help. He only has to do certain problems so I'm going to send you one of the ones he doesn't have to do.
The question reads as follows:
Solve ecah equation if the domain is {-2, -1, 1, 3, 4}.
The question is as follows:
y=4 - 5x
If you could just show me how to work these I can help him with the ones he has to turn in tomorrow.
Thank you.

Question 96382This question is from textbook Intermediate Algebra
: I don't understand how you can determine this problem.
its a Qualitative graphing problem. here is the problem
Let F be the temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit) at a specific outdoor location at t hours after 6 A.M. on a specific day. (so t=0 represeents 6 A.M.)
My question: how do you determine the independent from the dependent variable. And how do you know what to put on the graph since there is no numbers. Am I supposed to take my best guess?
I am thinking that the F is dependent and the t is independent. How do I do I graph the problem?
