Over the last 2.5 years, the water level in a lake has changed by -0.6 feet per year. Scientists predict that the water level will continue to go down for the next 5 years at a rate of 0.6 feet per year. What rational number represents the overall change of the water level after 7.5 years? *

2nd one in the first row is correct

b=-1

find the slope and y-intercept of the second equation.

b=-6

compare the slopes

m of the two equations.

=

5

,

m

2

=

0

m1=5,m2=0

compare the two slopes in the decimal form. if the slopes are equal, then the lines are parallel. if the slopes are not equal, then the lines are not parallel.
