at age 16, estelle weighed 110lbs.
by age 21 she weighed 128lbs.
what is the increase in her weight over the past 5 years?
x= age
y= weight
slope= y2-y1/x2-x1

Her weight is increase by 18 lbs over past five years and the slope is 3.6 lbs per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: Estelle weight is

At age 16 =  110 lbs

At age 21 = 128 ibs

Increase in her weight over the past 5 years is the difference of weight at age 21 and at age 16.

Increase in her weight over the past 5 years = 128 - 110 = 18

Her weight is increase by 18 lbs over past five years.

Let x=age and y=weight, then the weight function passes through the points (16,110) and (21,128).

If a line passes through two points and ,  then the slope of the line is

Using the above formula we get

Therefore the slope is 3.6 lbs per year.

(0.2)+(-8)=0.3+-3+0.3m is the equation i guess? ?

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the sun

explanation:

water cycle describes the evaporation of water from earth's surface, formation of clouds and precipitation water back onto the surface of earth. seventy percent of the earth is covered with water in the form of seas and oceans. the heat of the sun causes the evaporation of water from the surface of the ocean. the water vapors rise and condense to form water droplets. the collection of these water droplets form clouds which rain down again.

the evaporation of the oceans surface water as part of the water cycle is caused by the sun
