Ayoung sumo wrestler goes on a special diet to gain weight. the variable the wrestler's weight (in kilograms) after the wrestler has been on a special diet for ttt months. w=80+5.4tw=80+5.4tw, equals, 80, plus, 5, point, 4, t how much weight does the wrestler gain every 222 months?

answer:

step-by-step explanation:

let

> the wrestler's weight

> the number of months

we know that

the linear equation that represent this situation is

where

80 is the initial wrestler's weight for the value of t equal to zero (y-intercept)

so

for months

5.4 is the slope of the linear equation > represents the amount of weight the wrestler gains each month

so

therefore

to find how much weight wrestler gain every 2 months, multiply the slope by 2
