Question

The backyard can be mapped ontoa Cartesian coordinate (x,y) graph. Using the various itemsdescribed in the yard below, answer the followingquestions.

1) A water line is given by theequation

     y=-0.6x+3.2

   Suppose youwant to put a pink flamingo ornament in your backyard, but you wantto avoid placing it directly over the water line, in case you needto excavate the line for repairs in the future. Could you place itat the point (-0.3756)? Demonstrate how you arrived at your answerwith detail calculations.

2) What is the slope andy-intercept of the line in part a? How do youknow?

b)       What is the slope and y-intercept of the line in parta? How do youknow?

Explanation / Answer

2) using this formula y=mx+b m is the slope so -0.6 is the slope
