Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation

Because 3x7 equals 21 than two people got steak so 21 plus 20 equals 41 and more would not be 41

Answer:

To answer the problem above we let x be the number of people who prefers salad and y be the number of people who chose steak. For lunch they will be spending $41. That is,

                                  7x + 10y = 41

Now, for dinner they will be spending $51. That is,

                                9x + 12y = 51

The values of x and y from both equations are 3 and 2, respectively. Therefore, 3 people will choose a salad

Yuson must complete 210 min of community service. She does 30 min each day. Which linear equation represents the number of minut
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

y=-30x+210

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of days

y ----> the number of minutes Yuson has left

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept (initial value)

In this problem we have

The slope is equal to

m=-30\frac{min}{day} ----> is negative because is a decreasing function

b=210\ min ----> initial value

substitute the values

y=-30x+210

Jessica is selling books during the summer to earn money for college. She earns a commission on each sale but has to pay for her
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Her expenses are $25 per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :Jessica earns a commission on each sale but has to pay for her own expenses.

She writes the equation of the function like this: E(x) = 7x - 25, where x is the number of doors she knocks on during the week and E(x) is her earnings for the week in dollars.

To Find: Which of the following are reasonable interpretations of the y-intercept of Jessica's function?

Solution:

E(x) = 7x - 25

x is the number of doors she knocks on during the week

E(x) is her earnings for the week in dollars.

Calculate y intercept

Substitute x = 0

y= - 25

Since E(x) is her total earning after clearing the payment of all her expenses.

So, 25 is her expenses per week.

Since we are given that she need to pay her expenses .

So, if there is no sale , still she need to pay expenses.

Thus the reasonable interpretations of the y-intercept of Jessica's function is Her expenses are $25 per week.

earnstyle [38]

1) You included neihter what Ramesh says nor the statements, then I can you tell some facts about the pattern.


2) The sequence is: 2401, 343, 49, 7, and 1.


3) The first term is 2401


4) The sequence is a decreasing geometric one.


5) The ratio is found dividing two consecutive terms (the second by the first, or the third by the second, or the fourth by the third, or the fifth by fourth):


1/7 = 7 / 49 = 49 / 343 = 343 / 2401.


So, the ratio is 1/7


6) The sum of that sequence is 2401 + 343 + 49 + 7 + 1 = 2801
