Answer:

y = 800x + 25 000; 31 400 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear model has the form y = mx + b

There are two variables: the <em>number of customers</em> and the <em>number of years since 2012</em>. The number of customers depends on how long the restaurant has been operating.

m = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂ -x₁)

x₁ = 2012 – 2012 = 0; y₁ = 25 000

x₂ = 2014 – 2012 = 2; y₂ = 26 600

m = (26 600 – 25 000)/(2 - 0)

m = 1600/2

m = 800 customers/yr

The initial value (b) is the number of customers in 2012.

b = 25 000  

The linear function is

y = 800x + 25 000

===============

<em>Customers in 2020 </em>

x = 2020 -2012

x = 8                             Insert into the formula

y = 800×8 + 25 000

y = 6400 + 25 000

y = 31 400 customers

The restaurant will serve 31 400 customers in 2020.

Jim's work evaluating 2 (three-fifths) cubed is shown below. 2 (three-fifths) cubed = 2 (StartFraction 3 cubed Over 5 EndFractio
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3}) and not 2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5})

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim's work evaluating 2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3} is shown:

2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5})=2(\frac{3X3X3}{5})=2(\frac{27}{5})=\frac{54}{5}

If you look at the Second step, the exponent is taken over only the numerator. It should have been taken over both the numerator and denominator as shown below.

2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})

The correct workings therefore is:

2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})=2(\frac{3X3X3}{5X5X5})=2(\frac{27}{125})=\frac{54}{125}

Carissa counts by 5s from 32 to 62. Which number does carissa count?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

32, 37, 42, 47, 52, 57, 62.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Carissa counts by 5s from 32 to 62.

It means, we have to add 5 in the number to get the next number.

Add 5 in 32.

32+5=37

Now, add 5 in 37.

37+5=42

Similarly, continue the process.

42+5=47

47+5=52

52+5=57

57+5=62

Therefore, the numbers counted by carissa are 32, 37, 42, 47, 52, 57, 62.

The maximum grade allowed between two stations in a​ rapid-transit rail system is​ 3.5%. Between station A and station​ B, which
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

x = 3.1 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the slope the track.

Given:

Distance between station A and B = 270 ft

Track rise = 8\frac{1}{2} = \frac{17}{2} = 8.5\ ft

We need to find the slope of the railway track between station A an B.

Solution:

The maximum grade allowed between two stations in a​ rapid-transit rail system is​ 3.5%.

We know that slope of the railway track is equal to gradient of the tracks.

So. the slope of the railway track is defined as the ratio of the distance between the stations and track rises.

Slope\ of\ the\ the\ tracks =\frac{Distance\ between\ two\ stations}{track\ rises}

x=\frac{8.5}{270}\times 100

x = 3.1 %

So x = 3.1 % less than the maximum grade allowed between two stations in a​ rapid-transit rail system is​ 3.5%.

Therefore, x = 3.1 % meets the​ rapid-transit rail​ standards.

Complete the equation of the line through (-6,5)(−6,5)left parenthesis, minus, 6, comma, 5, right parenthesis and (-3,-3)(−3,−3)
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:   y = -8/3 x - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

A (-6, 5)

B (-3, -3)

Process

1.- Find the slope of the line

Formula

             m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

Substitution

             m = \frac{-3 - 5}{-3 + 6}

Simplifying

            m = \frac{- 8 }{3}

2.- Find the equation of the line

Formula

              ( y - y1) = m(x - x1)                    

Substitution

             ( y + 3) = -8/3 (x + 3)

Simplifying

              y + 3 = -8/3 x - 8

              y = -8/3 x - 8 - 3

              y = -8/3 x - 11
