A balloon Rises at a rate of 10 ft per second. What is the linear equation for the relationship that gives a height white and feet of the balloon after X seconds?

The linear equation is y = 10 x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

For each unit of time, we get ten units of height.

So, the linear equation is  

y = 10 x

Where "y" is the height of the balloon after "x" seconds.

If we replace the variable x for a value we obtain the height.

For example, after 1 second:

y = 10 ft / sec x 1 sec

y = 10 feet

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

it's equivalent, so we can say that its equal.

let's call the denominator x and the numerador is 18 less then denominator, x - 18.

multiply

2.x = 5.(x - 18)

2x = 5x - 90

90 = 5x - 2x

90 = 3x

x = 90/3

x = 30

so:

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
