Answer: f(x) = -3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is represented by

9x + 3y= 12

This is a linear equation with x as the independent variable. This means that if x is the independent variable, the y is the dependent variable. The values of y depends on the values of x. In order to represent the function, 9x + 3y= 12, we would rearrange the function such that y stands alone on the left hand side of the equation. This becomes

9x + 3y= 12

Subtracting 9x from both sides,

9x -9x + 3y = 12 - 9x

3y = 12-9x

Dividing the lefthand side and right hand side of the equation by 3, it becomes

3y/3 = (12-9x)/3

y= -3x + 4

using function notation,

y = f(x) = -3x + 4

Year      Net Profit
1            <span>$14,250.00
2            $15,390.00
3            $16,621.20
4            $17,950.90</span>2

We need to get the increase of the net profit of the current year from the previous year.

Percentage increase = (Current year - Previous Year)/ Previous Year    * 100%

Year 2:  (15,390 - 14, 250) / 14,250   * 100% = 0.08 * 100% = 8%
Year 3: (16,621.20 - 15,390) / 15,390 * 100% = 0.08 * 100% = 8%
Year 4: (17,950.90 - 16,621.20) / 16,621.20 * 100% = 0.08 * 100% = 8%

Every year the net income increases by 8%. So, the net income in Year 5 will be:

17,950.90 x 1.08 = 19,386.97  Choice D.

Melinda works at a cafe. Each day that she works, she records x, the total dollar amount of her customers’ bills and then y, her
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

$26

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the table, the plot and the line of best fit are shown. There we can see the next equation:

y = 0.177x + 25.936

where x is the total dollar amount of her customers’ bills and then y is her total daily wages.

This means that even if she serves no customers (x = 0) she will earn $26  ($25.936 rounded to the nearest dollar)  for each day of work.

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, what is the positive solution to the quadratic equation 0=2x2+3x-8?
Basile [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

2x^2+3x-8 = 0

To find the roots of the equation. We will apply the general formula for quadratic equations

x = -b ± √b^2 - 4ac]/2a

from the equation,

a = 2

b = 3

c = -8

It becomes

x = [- 3 ± √3^2 - 4(2 × -8)]/2×2

x = - 3 ± √9 - 4(- 16)]/2×2

x = [- 3 ± √9 + 64]/2×2

x = [- 3 ± √73]/4

x = [- 3 ± 8.544]/4

x = (-3 + 8.544) /4 or x = (-3 - 8.544) / 4

x = 5.544/4 or - 11.544/4

x = 1.386 or x = - 2.886

The positive solution is 1.39 rounded up to the nearest hundredth

Billy goes on the teacup ride at the local carnival. He is seated 16 inches from the center of his teacup, which is spinning at
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Billy’s angular velocity, is 1508.16 radians per second

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find angular velocity in radians per second

we have given angular velocity w = 4 revolutions per minute

we have to convert revolutions into radians and minutes into seconds.

so, we use the following conversion:

1 rev = 2* pi radians (where pi = 22/7 or 3.142)

1 min = 60 sec

putting the values in our equation : w = 4 revolutions per minute

=> w= 4 * ( 2* 3.142) *60

=> w= 1508.16 radians per second

hence Billy’s angular velocity, is 1508.16 radians per second
