Sasha is driving her car at an average rate of 60 miles per hour she is driving directly to an Atlanta and it's 400 miles away the equation y equals 400 - 60 x can be used to represent the distance y Sasha is from Atlanta after x hours identify the slope and the y-intercept and explain what they represent

The correct answer is slope -60, represents Sasha's average speed and y intercept 400, represents her final destination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sasha is driving to Atlanta at an average speed of 60 miles per hour which is 400 miles away.

The equation to represent the distance y Sasha is from Atlanta after x hours is given by y = 400 - 60x.

We compare the given equation with the slope intercept form of a straight line y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y intercept.

Slope of this equation is given by -60 and the y intercept is 400.

Slope represents nothing but the average speed of Sasha's car. It is negative showing that with increase in time the Sasha is coming close to her destination, Atlanta.

y intercept represents Sasha's destination or the distance she has to travel to reach her destination.

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.
