Question 1015132
owen found that he could use the equation y=-3x+24 to model the water leaking from his bottle.
1) what is the slope?
It's in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b
m is the slope.
m = -3
-------
2) what is the y-intercept?
It's in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b
b is the y-intercept.
b = 24
------------
3) what would have to happen to the bottle in order to change the slope to -4
The rate of leakage would increase.
