Question

NTO has observed a downward trend in the average Graduate Assessment Test score of applicants. Analysis has resulted in the equation;

g=580-4t

Where g equals the average GAT score for a given year and t equals the time measured in year

since 1995 (i.e. t=0 for year 1995)

a) Identify the g and t intercept

b) Identify the slope

c) Sketch the equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Solve for 'g'

let t=0

g=580-4(0)

g=580

g-int (580,0)

Solve for 't'

let g=0

0=580-4t

4t=580

t=580/4

t=145

t-int(0,145)

b) Slope ?

g=580-4t

slope formula:

ax+by+c

m=-a/b

m=-1/4

c) Sketch Equation

g=580-4t

g+580-4t=0 Answer
