Question

Lab 4A Slope Intercept Practice For each of the following, you are given two variables and a linear equation relating those variables. 1. What is the y-intercept in each of the following? What does that number tell us about the variables in each example below (include the units)? Remember,this is a prediction equation and the y-intercept doesn't always make logical sense. 2. Write a sentence interpreting the slope for the given equation (include the units) a.y number of cars parked on a street x=number of houses on the Cars-n2+ 2 (houses) by-Cost in dollars for tonerxnumber of pages printed Cost 20+03(page) c.y=Gallons of milk that cows on a farm produce per day x=Acres of land available on the farm Gallons of milk-1200(acres of grass)+1000 y=the heightininches of a male student in dass off his father d. x=the height in inches Son's height-3-1.02(fathers height)

Explanation / Answer

Q 1)

a) Y - intercept = 12

When there are no house on the street , there will be average 12 cars parket on a street

b) Y- intercept = 20

When the number of printed page is 0, the cost for toner will be 20$

c) Y- Intercept = 1000

When there are no land availabe on farm, the milk production will ne 1000 gallons per day

(doesnot make logical sense)

d) Y-intercept = 3

When the height of father is 0 inches, the height of male student in the class is 3 inches.

(Doesnot make logical sense)
