Answer:
Compute the cost of driving for two different job options.
Driving costs 0.50 dollars per mile. Driving occurs 250 days per year.
Job 1
Miles each way 5
What is the cost of driving?
Job 2
Miles each way 50
What is the cost of driving?
For product A, the product is increasing, for the bigger the number you plug into x (due to the fact that the numbers become bigger because of the time: year 1, year 2, etc)
Product A is 82% change rate, while
product B is 983.45/4 = 245.8625, 1756.16/3 = <span>585.3867</span>
Product B is 245.8625/585.3867
product B is 42% change rate
Product A change rate is higher than Product B by 40%
hope this helps
Answer:
B. y = -0.58x^2 -0.43x +15.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The data has a shape roughly that of a parabola opening downward. So, you'll be looking for a 2nd-degree equation with a negative coefficient of x^2. There is only one of those, and its y-intercept (15.75) is in about the right place.
The second choice is appropriate.
_____
The other choices are ...
A. a parabola opening upward
C. an exponential function decaying toward zero on the right and tending toward infinity on the left
D. a line with negative slope (This might be a good linear regression model, but the 2nd-degree model is a better fit.)
Well, as you can see from the rectangle RT and SW should have equal lengths. So to find the value of x, we need to do.....
4x + 10 = 5x - 20
-x + 10 = -20 (Subtraction property of equality)
-x = -30 (Subtraction property of equality)
x = 30 (Division property of equality)
To check our work:
4(30)+10 = 130
5(30)-20 = 130
So, the value of x is 30!
