Find the rate of change, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), from the data given...
(2.16-1.26)/(12-7)=0.18
(1.26-0.72)/(7-4)=0.18
Since the rate is constant, this is a linear equation of the form y=mx+b. Furthermore, since 0 pencils cost 0, b=0, so the cost of the pencils is simply the number of pencils times 18 cents...
c(p)=0.18p (cost with respect to pencils is 0.18 times the number of pencils)
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, add x to each side.
72=-2x+84
Subtract 84 from each side
-12=-2x
Dive each side by -2
6=x
Answer:
The answers are given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1.a.
Profit Margin = Net Income ÷ Sales × 100
= $374 ÷ $6,900 ×100
= 5.4%
1-b:
Average Assets = (Beginning Assets + Ending Assets) ÷ 2
= ($3,200 + $3,600) ÷ 2
= $3,400
Now
Return on Assets = Net Income ÷ Average Assets
= $374 ÷ $3,400
= 11%
1-c
Average Equity = ($700 + $700 + $320 + $270) ÷ 2
= $995
Now
Return on Equity = Net Income ÷ Average Equity *100
= $374 ÷ $995
= 37.59%
2:
Dividends Paid = Beginning Retained Earnings + Net Income – Ending Retained Earnings
= $270 + $374 - $320
= $324
The thing you have to figure out about this is the distance for each person and the time it takes for the biker to meet the runner. The rates we are told. The formula is distance = rate times time. Let's do that for the runner first. His rate is 6 so the formula so far is d = 6t. Now let's work on the time. If the biker left an hour later than the runner, then the runner has been running an hour more than the biker. Therefore, the runner's time is t + 1. Hold off on the distance part til we do for the biker what we just did for the runner. The biker's rate is 14, and we already decided that his time is t. His equation is d = 14t. Now at the exact moment the biker meets the runner their distances are the same. So if the equation for the runner is d = 6t + 6 and the equation for the biker is d = 14t and their distances are the same, by the transitive property, their rates and times are the same as well, meaning we set them equal to each other and solve for t. 6t + 6 = 14t. 6 = 8t and t = 3/4. This means that it took 45 minutes for the biker to meet the runner.
Answer:
Rate of slower bus; 90 km/h
Rate of faster bus; 102 km/b
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that formula do distance is;
Distance = speed/time
We are told that One bus travels 12h slower than the other.
Let speed of slower bus be x.
Thus;
Speed of faster bus = x + 12
Speed of slower bus = x
After 3 hours, distance by faster bus = 3(x + 12)
Speed of slower bus = 3x
Since the towns are 576 km apart, then;
3(x + 12) + 3x = 576
Divide through by 3 to get;
x + 12 + x = 192
2x + 12 = 192
2x = 192 - 12
2x = 180
x = 180/2
x = 90 km/h
Faster bus speed = 90 + 12 = 102 km/h
