Determine what type of model best fits the given situation: an internet phone company presently provides service to 5,000 custom

ers at a monthly rate of $20 per month. after a market survey, it was determined that for each $1 decrease in the monthly rate an increase of 500 new customers would result.

The expression $-500 \times 18+15000=-9000+15000=6000 which best fit exists in the Linear model.

<h3>How to estimate the linear model?</h3>

Given: Monthly Rate = $20

Number of customers = 5000

If there exists a decrease of $1 in the monthly rate, the number of customers increases by 500.

Let us decrease the monthly rate by $1.

Monthly Rate = $20 - $1 = $19

Number of customers = 5000 + 500 = 5500

Let us decrease the monthly rate by $1 more.

Monthly Rate = $19 - $1 = $18

Number of customers = 5500 + 500 = 6000

Linear change in the number of customers whenever there exists a decrease in the monthly rate.

We have 2 pairs of values here,

x = 20, y = 5000

x = 19, y = 5500

The equation in slope-intercept form: y = mx + c

The slope of a function: $&m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\

$&m=\frac{5500-5000}{19-20} \\

$&\Rightarrow-500

So, the equation is y = -500x + c

Putting x = 20, y = 5000:

$&5000=-500 \times 20+c \\

$&\Rightarrow c=5000+10000=15000 \\

$&\Rightarrow \mathbf{y}=-500 \mathbf{x}+15000

Whether (18,6000) satisfies it.

Putting x = 18

$-500 \times 18+15000=-9000+15000=6000

Therefore, the expression $-500 \times 18+15000=-9000+15000=6000 which best fits exist Linear model.

6. a. Name a pair of equations that have exactly one point of intersection. How do you know?
True [87]

Answer:

A system of linear equations will have exactly one point of intersection, for example:

2x+y=5

-x+y=2

However, a system of linear equations with no solution will have no points of intersection, for example:

-4x+10y=6

2x-5y=3

Sorry about c. though I'm confused on how a pair of equations can have infinite points of intersection unless x or y equals all real numbers which could happen if x or y both equaled all real numbers maybe

And the point of interesection for the system of equations in the problem you attached as an image is (2,-1)

I attached a photo below, and one of how to graph it

On your pattern, what would y be when x = 132
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is  (9-7*3+4)^2

We can follow the rule of "PEMDAS" here.

PEMDAS = Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract

So, we first need to deal with Parenthesis. Next,

There aren't any exponents, so we deal with Multiplication of 7 and 3.

Then addition/subtraction.

Hence, the first step, from the answer choices, would be D, multiply 7 and 3

A graph is made by a straight line that intersects the y axis at the point (0,12). Why isn't that graph a proportional relations
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The table of values and their graph show above a straight line that passes through the origin. This indicates that the relationship between the two currencies is in direct proportion. Think about what this means in real terms – if you have ten times more dollars than another person, when you both exchange your money, you will still have ten times more money. Notice also that the graph passes through the origin; this makes sense as if you have no dollars you will get no pounds!

We can express these relationships algebraically as well as graphically.
