Chapter 2 Knowledge Check Answer Key
Knowledge Check 2.1
1. | Intercept | Slope |
a. y=6+3x | 6 | 3 |
b. t=2n+4 | 4 | 2 |
c. 5s=10−5r | 2 | -1 (note that s=2−r) |
2. a. T=90+0.5x
X | T |
0 | 90 |
80 | 130 |
150 | 165 |
d. 140 minutes
Knowledge Check 2.2
- Slope: 212°F−32°F100°C−0°C=180°F100°C=1.8°F°C
- Using the point (0°C, 32°F): $32=a+1.8(0), so a = 32°F
- F = 32 + l .8°C. So putting in C = 20, we have F=32+1.8×20=68°F
