16. The local hiking club went on a 7-day hiking trip to Denali National
Park. The group started with 98 pounds and returned with no food.
If the decreasing amount of food each day is modeled by a linear
function, what is the slope of the line?

The slope of the line is 14 pounds per day

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The local hiking club went on a 7-day hiking trip to Denali National  Park.

The group started with 98 pounds

We are also given that the decreasing amount of food each day is modeled by a linear  function

On Day 1  amount of food = 98 pounds

Since day 7 was the last day

So, On Day 8 amount of food = 0

So,

Slope = Constant Rate of change per unit

Slope =

So, Slope =

Slope = - 14

Negative sign shows decreasing amount of food each day

Hence the slope of the line is 14 pounds per day

(x, y)→(x − 8, y − 7)

c) the median for town a 30" is greater than the median for town b 25"

step-by-step explanation:

town a, median = q2 = 30

town b, median - q2 = 25

so the median for town a 30" is greater than the median for town b 25"
