On june 1, a fast-growing species of algae is accidentally introduced into a lake in a city park. it starts to grow and
cover the surface of the lake in such a way that the area it covers doubles every day. if it continues to grow
unabated, the lake will be totally covered, and the fish in the lake will suffocate. at the rate it is growing, this will
happen on june 30.
b. on june 26, a pedestrian who walks by the lake every day warns that the lake will be completely covered soon.
her friend just laughs. why might her friend be skeptical of the warning?

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !

step-by-step explanation:

jbankston is right, use thhe link and you should find the answer.

hi there

the slope is 1/3.

this is because from the y-intercept, you go up one, and you go to the right three, to get to the next exact point on the graph. this is known at the “rise over run.”

p.s. (if you need it).your y-intercept is -2, because that is the point on the graph where the line crosses the y-axis.

hope that : )
