The following table gives the number of people infected by the flu over a given number of months. 10 1 12 3 4 15 Number of Months Number of People Infected 1 15 13 33 178 180

Describe any trends or patterns that you observe.

a. The number of people infected is decreasing at a steady rate.
b. The number of months is increasing quickly. c. The number of people infected is increasing at a very fast rate.
d. There is no apparent trend or pattern in the table.

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
