The height of an ice sculpture is 5 feet before it starts to melt. As the ice sculpture melts, its height decreases by 0.5 foot per hour. Write an equation to represent the height of the ice sculpture (y), in feet, based on the amount of time (x), in hours, since it started to melt?

At the olympic games, many events have several rounds of competition. one of these events is the men's 100-meter backstroke. the upper dot plot shows the times (in seconds) of the top 8 finishers in the final round of the 2012 olympics. the lower dot plot shows the times of the same 8 swimmers, but in the semifinal round. which pieces of information can be gathered from these dot plots? (remember that lower swim times are faster.) choose all answers that apply: a: the swimmers had faster times on average in the final round. b: the times in the final round vary noticeably more than the times in the semifinal round. c: none of the above.
