A small musical ensemble has worked five private parties this year. They recorded the number of hours they worked per party and

the earnings from each. The ensemble created the following table from the data. The amount the ensemble charges varies depending on the time of year. They charge a flat fee for party reservations.
Number of Hours,x : 1 2 2.5 3 4
Earnings,y: 165.50 211.65 245.25 292.45 360.00

The line of best fit for the data is given by the equation below.

Choose the correct meaning of the rate of change and y-intercept from each column of the table.

RATE OF CHANGE
The increase in minutes the ensemble
plays per dollar earned

The flat fee for party reservations

The amount the earnings increase for
each additional hour the ensemble plays

Y-INTERCEPT
The flat fee for party reservations

The fee paid per hour the ensemble plays

The amount the earnings increase for
each additional hour the ensemble plays

Rate of change is the change in earnings per additional unit of time, so the 3rd choice is the best: <span>The amount the earnings increase for each additional hour the ensemble plays</span>.
The y-intercept is the 1st choice: the flat fee for party reservations, since this is constant for all events, no matter how long the event lasts.

There are 4 quarters in 1 dollar the total number of dollars is a function of the number of quarters does this situation represe
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

sample answer:   If you make a table of values, you can see that 4 quarters equal 1 dollar and 8 quarters equal 2 dollars. If you graph the data, you will see a straight line. Therefore, this situation represents a linear function with a constant rate of change of 1/4

The graph represents the cost of a subscription to a newspaper. A coordinate plane showing Ferry Ride Cost with Number of Person
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The constant of variation is $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Point 1 (1,2)

Point 2 (5,8)

Required

Constant of Variation

Though the graph would have assisted in answering the question; its unavailability doesn't mean the question cannot be solved.

Having said that,

the constant variation can be solved by calculating the gradient of the graph;

The gradient is often represented by m and is calculated as thus

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Where

(x_1, y_1) = (1,2)\\(x_2, y_2) = (5,8)

By substituting values for x1,x2,y1 and y2; the gradient becomes

m = \frac{8 - 2}{5 - 1}

m = \frac{6}{4}

m = \frac{3}{2}

m = 1.50

Hence, the constant of variation is $1.50

A student claims that 3x + 2y = 5xy. Use a visual representation to show whether this is true or false
Ket [755]

Answer:

It is true, except when x = 2/5, since it is an asymptote.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x=5xy-2y

3x=y(5x-2)

3x/5x-2=y

5x-2=0 -------> 5x=2 --------> x=2/5
