The correct answer is: 7
From y – y1 = m(x – x1)
m = slope = 
picking two points from the table (0,-2) (6,16)
slope = 
the equation becomes:
y-(-2) = 3(x-0)
y + 2 = 3x
y = f(x) = 3 x -2
f (3) = 3(3) -2
= 9 – 2 = 7

As part of an experiment, a ball was dropped and allowed to bounce repeatedly off the ground until it came to rest. The graph above represents the relationship between the time elapsed after the ball was dropped and the height of the ball above the ground. After it was dropped, how many times was the ball at a height of 2 feet?

When designing a stairway, an architect can use the riser-tread formula 2h + d = 25, where h is the riser height, in inches, and d is the tread depth, in inches. For any given stairway, the riser heights are the same and the tread depths are the same for all steps in that stairway.
The number of steps in a stairway is the number of its risers. For example, there are 5 steps in the stairway in the figure above. The total rise of a stairway is the sum of the riser heights as shown in the figure.
Some building codes require that, for indoor stairways, the tread depth must be at least 9 inches and the riser height must be at least 5 inches. According to the riser-tread formula, which of the following inequalities represents the set of all possible values for the riser height that meets this code requirement?
