11. The graph relates the temperature

change y (in degrees) to the altitude change
x (in thousands of feet).

Growth
Do fingernails or toenails grow faster?
Explain.
{fingernails; fingernails grow about 0.7
millimeters per week and toenails grow
about 0.25 millimeters per week}

a. Is the relationship proportional? Explain.

{yes; the line passes through the origin}

Find the slope and y-intercept.
13. y = 4x 5

b. Write an equation of the line. Interpret

the slope.

{m = 4; b = -5}

{y = -3.5x; the temperature decreases by

3.5F for each 1000 foot increase in
altitude}

14. y 6 = -2x

{m = -2; b = 6}
c. You are at the bottom of a mountain
where the temperature is 74F. The top of
the mountain is 5500 feet above you. What
is the temperature at the top of the
mountain?

15. y 3x = 2

{54.75F}

{m = 3; b = 2}

Graph the equation using slope-intercept form then identify the x-intercept.

16. y = - 2x + 1

17. y = 5

{x = 2}

{does not exist}

17. 2y = 2x + 4

19. y + 2x = -2

{x = -2}

{x = -4}

Graph using x- and y-intercepts.

20. 2x + y = 7

21. 2x y = -10

Write an equation in slope-intercept form.
