17. The local hiking club went on a five day huling trip to Denali Nations
Park. The group departed with 60 pounds and returned with no food,
What is the slope of a graph for the amount of food over time (in
pounds per day?

The slope is 12 pounds per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

They consumed 60 pounds on food in 5 days.

The slope or rate at which they consummed the in a day can be calculated as the amount of pounds consumed in the lapse of time, this is:

slope = 60pounds/5days = 12 pounds per day.

answer:

(-8,7)

explanation:

we know that  

f

(

−

3

)

=

7

therefore, if we wish to get the output as 7, in the function, we need to have our input to be -3.

looking at the function  

f

(

x

+

5

)

, what should the value of x be, such that the input in the function becomes 7?

we simply equate the terms,

x

+

5

=

−

3

x

=

−

8

thus, the point on the new function would be  

(

−

8

,

7

)
