Interpret the slope for the situation: the number of people who worked for the railroads in the united states each year from 1989 to 1995 can be modeled by the equation y = -6.61x + 229, where x represents the number of years since 1989 and y represents the number of railroad employees (in thousands).

In the field of thermodynamics, rankine is the unit used to measure temperature. one can convert temperature from celsius into rankine using the formula c= r/1.8 - 273, what is the temperature in celcius corresponding to r degrees rankine.

Whats the name of the vertical axis

Mary beth used the mapping rule to find the coordinates of a point that had been rotated 90° counterclockwise around the origin. examine the steps to determine whether she made an error. m (3, –6) is rotated 90° counterclockwise. (x, y) → (–y, x) 1. switch the x- and y-coordinates: (6, –3) 2. multiply the new x-coordinate by –1: (6(–1), –3) 3. simplify: (–6, –3) .
