Step-by-step explanation:
the change in cost of 145-135.50 = 9.50 for an increase of students from 25 to 30. The ratio of change of cost to change of students = 9.50/5 = 1.9 and becomes the slope coefficient "m" in the formula y= mx + b. y = the total cost, mx becomes the variable cost and b becomes the fixed cost. To find b, use the data point given where the total cost = $135.50 when the students = 25, or 135.50 = 1.9*25 +b. Solving for b yields $ 88. Note that the other data point is where the total cost is $145 for students = 30. Using the new total cost equation shows that 30*1.9+88= 145

Answer:
a. 0.81
b. v = 28000(0.81^n)
c. 2757.36
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The growth factor is 1 more than the growth rate. Here, the growth rate is -19% (per year), so the growth factor, the multiplier, is ...
1 -0.19 = 0.81
__
b. The equation sets value equal to the original value multiplied by the growth factor to the power of the number of years:
value = (original value) × (growth factor)^n
v = 28000(0.81^n)
__
c. For n=11, this is ...
v = 28000(0.81^11) ≈ 2757.36
The value of the truck after 11 years is about $2757.

AC = 18
BC = 6x
AB = 2x + 4
Write and solve:
18 + 6x + 2x + 4
18 + 8x + 4 = 180
You can solve further:
18 + 8x = 176
8x = 158
x = 19 & 3/4
Not 100% sure what the question is asking, but hopefully this helps.
