Sal's Sandwich Shop sells wraps and sandwiches as part of its lunch specials. The profit on every sandwich is $2 and the profit

on every wrap is $3. Sal made a profit of $1,470 from lunch specials last month. The equation 2x + 3y = 1,470 represents Sal's profits last month, where x is the number of sandwich lunch specials sold and y is the number of wrap lunch specials sold.
1.) Change the equation to slope-intercept form. Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation. Be sure to show all your work.

2.)Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method. Be sure to write using complete sentences.

3.)Write the equation in function notation. Explain what the graph of the function represents. Be sure to use complete sentences.

4.)Graph the function. On the graph, make sure to label the intercepts. You may graph your equation by hand on a piece of paper and scan your work or you may use graphing technology.

5.)Suppose Sal's total profit on lunch specials for the next month is $1,593. The profit amounts are the same: $2 for each sandwich and $3 for each wrap. In a paragraph of at least three complete sentences, explain how the graphs of the functions for the two months are similar and how they are different

6.)Below is a graph that represents the total profits for a third month. Write the equation of the line that represents this graph. Show your work or explain how you determined the equations

Let
x--------> <span>the number of sandwich lunch specials sold
y-------> </span><span>the number of wrap lunch specials sold

we know that
2x+3y=1470

Part 1) </span><span>Change the equation to slope-intercept form. Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation. Be sure to show all your work.

we know that
</span>the equation to slope-intercept form is of the form
y=mx+b
so
2x+3y=1470------> solve for y
3y=1470-2x-----> divide by 3 both sides
y=(-2/3)x+1470/3
y=(-2/3)x+490

the slope m=-2/3
the y-intercept is 490


Part 2) <span>Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method. Be sure to write using complete sentences.

</span><span>the slope is -2/3  and the y-intercept is 490

Plot the point (0,490)------>  the y-intercept.
With the slope count 3 squares to the right and 2 squares down and plot that point, which is (0+3,490-2)--------> (3,488)
Draw a line through the two points  

Part 3) </span><span>Write the equation in function notation. Explain what the graph of the function represents. Be sure to use complete sentences.

In function notation, the equation is:
f(x)=(-2/3)x+490
The graph of this function represents how the value of the function varies as the value of x varies. Looking back at the question context, this graph specifically represents how many wraps could have been sold at each number of sandwich sales, in order to maintain the same profit of $1470.</span><span>

Part 4) </span>Graph the function. On the graph, make sure to label the intercepts. You may graph your equation by hand on a piece of paper and scan your work or you may use graphing technology

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

Part 5) Suppose Sal's total profit on lunch specials for the next month is $1,593. The profit amounts are the same: $2 for each sandwich and $3 for each wrap. In a paragraph of at least three complete sentences, explain how the graphs of the functions for the two months are similar and how they are different

we have that
2x+3y=1593
3y=1593-2x--------> y=(-2/3)x+531
slope=(-2/3)
y intercept=531
therefore
similarities : same slope
differences : y intercepts are different.
<span>This is basically telling me that the lines are parallel lines because they have the same slope.
</span>
6) Below is a graph that represents the total profits for a third month. Write the equation of the line that represents this graph. Show your work or explain how you determined the equations

Select two points on the line and write down their coordinates

Let
 A( 0,300)  B (450,0)
a) find the slope
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)----> m=(0-300)/(450-0)----> m=-2/3
b) with the slope m=(-2/3) and the point A (0,300)
y-y1=m*(x-x1)-----> y-300=(-2/3)*(x-0)----> y=(-2/3)x+300

the answer Part 6) is
y=(-2/3)x+300

A freight carrier charges $0.57 for a package weighing up to one ounce plus and additional $0.32 for each additional ounce or fr
kherson [118]

We have to write an equation that uses this info so we can find the cost to ship that package. However, the package weight is given to us in grams and we need it in ounces. So first thing we are going to do is convert that 224 g to ounces. Use the fact that 1 g = .035274 ounces to convert. 224g*\frac{.035274oz}{1g}. Do the multiplication and cancel out the label of grams and we have 7.901376 ounces. Ok. We know that it costs .57 to mail the package for the first ounce. We have almost 8 ounces. So no matter what, we are paying .57. For each additional ounce we are paying .32. The number of .32's we have to spend depends upon how much the package goes over the first ounce. For the first ounce we pay .57, then for the remaining 6.901376 ounces we pay .32 per ounce. Our equation looks like this: C(x) = .32(6.901376) + .57 and we need to solve for the cost, C(x). Doing the multiplication we find that it would cost $2.78 to ship that package.

Izumi is running on a quarter-mile oval track. After running 110 yards, his coach records his time as 16 seconds.
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

14.04 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is asking for Izumi's speed. The formula of speed is:

  • s = \frac{d}{t} , where "s" means speed, "d" means distance and "t" means time.

The problem is also asking for the unit<u> miles per hou</u>r (\frac{miles}{hour}) so, this means that we have to know how many miles Izumi ran, given that the problem only mentioned<u> yards (110 yards).</u>

Let's convert 110 yards to miles, provided that he Izumi ran 1,760 yards in a mile.

  • 110 yards ÷ 1760 \frac{yards}{mile} = 0.0625 miles (this is the distance covered by Izumi in miles)

Let's go back again to the formula: s = \frac{d}{t}

s = \frac{0.0625 miles}{16 seconds} = 0.0039 \frac{miles}{sec}

Since, the we arrived at a miles per second unit, we have to convert it to miles per hour.

So, if a minute has 60 seconds, then an hour has 3,600 seconds.

Thus, 0.0039 \frac{miles}{sec} × 3,600 \frac{seconds}{hour} = 14.04 miles per hour (the answer)

The volume of air inside a rubber ball with radius r can be found using the function V(r) = four-thirds pi r cubed. What does V
Nat2105 [25]

Corrected Question

The volume of air inside a rubber ball with radius r can be found using the function V(r) = four-thirds pi r cubed. What does V(5/7) represent?

Answer:

(B)the volume of the rubber ball when the radius equals five-sevenths feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The Volume of a sphere of radius r can be found using the formula:

V(r)=\dfrac43 \pi r^3

Therefore comparing the expression: V(\dfrac57)  with V(r):

Radius, r=\dfrac57

Thus, V(\dfrac57)  is the volume of a ball of radius \dfrac57 feet.

The correct option is B.
