A=30000+0.03S and B=25000+0.05S.
When A=B, 5000=0.02S, so S=$250000 when the earnings are the same.
The slope of A is smaller than that of B. In excess of this value of S B pays more than A and below it A pays more than B.
So answer option B. (When S=0, clearly A is better than B. Put S=$300000, A pays $39000 and B pays $40000).
Answer:
72
Step-by-step explanation:
We are assuming that all girls in the group bought the same number of items.
Therefore, we need to find the highest common factor of 72, 144 and 216.
HCF
72 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3
144 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3
216 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 3
The product of the emboldened numbers is the highest common factor.
That is:
2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 = 72
Therefore, the largest possible number of girls in the group is 72.

Answer:
the slope of the common cord is: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the focus (a,b) = (3,-28)
- for a parabola with directrix at x-axis the equation will be


- for a parabola with directrix at y-axis the equation will be


The common chord is the line between two points where the two parabolas intersect. For intersection, we can equate the two parabolas!
In other words, at the point of intersection of these two parabolas the values of the two parabolas will be the same.


we can now simplify the equation. (we can see that (x-3) and (y+28) both cancel out by -(x-3) and -(y+28))



this the equation of the common cord. but we need to select whether its
or
.
This can be found by realizing that the focus lies on the 4th quadrant of the xy-plane! And the equation
also generates a line that exists in the 2nd and 4th quadrant.
Hence the slope of the common cord is the slope of the line 
that is :
