The amount of fresh water left in the tanks of a nineteenth-century clipper ship is a linear function of the time since the ship left port, as shown in the table. Write an equation in point-slope form that represents the function. Then find the amount of water that will be left in the ship's tanks 70 days after leaving port. Time(days) Amount(gal)
1 3555
8 3240
15 2925

gallons of water will be left after 70 days.

i could probably can you me with a question of mine?

step-by-step explanation:

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
