There is a pole in a lake.54 feet of the pole is in mud below the water, 1/2 of it is covered by water, and 36 feet are out of the water.
part a
if 20% of the pole is out of the water, what is the length of the pole
part b
what percent of the pole is in the mud below the water? explain.

A. 180' you do 100÷20=5 then do 36•5=180

B. 30% 54÷180•100=30

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept of the line, or the y-coordinate of the point at which the line crosses the y-axis. to write an equation in slope-intercept form, given a graph of that equation, pick two points on the line and use them to find the slope. this is the value of m in the equation.
