Sara wanted to gather data about the cost of local gyms in her area. She plotted the data and determined that the average gym co

sts consist of a one-time registration fee and a monthly fee modeled by the equation y = 10x + 30.
Identify and interpret the y-intercept in this model.

a. The y-intercept is 30. This is the cost of registration.
b. The y-intercept is 30. This is the cost per month.
c. The y-intercept is 10. This is the cost of registration.
d. The y-intercept is 10. This is the cost per month.

Answer: a. The y-intercept is 30. This is the cost of registration.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of line in intercept form is given by  :-

y=mx+c\ \ \ \ \ \ \ (i), where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept.

Given : Sara plotted the data and determined that the average gym costs consist of a one-time registration fee and a monthly fee modeled by the equation :-

y = 10x + 30

By comparing it to the equation (i), we have

c=30 and m=10

i.e. The y-intercept is 30.

Also, y-intercept of any function shows the starting value of the function when x=0.

Thus, This is the cost of registration ( starting fee).

On two investments totaling $11,500, Peter lost 3% on one and earned 4% on the other. If his net annual receipts were $⁢201, how
BlackZzzverrR [31]
Total amount of money invested - $11500
X +Y = $11500. ----------(1)
Total yearly interest for thetwo a/c is - $201
-0.03X + 0.04Y = $201
Form (1)
X = 11500 - Y
Substitute for X
-0.03(11500 - Y) + 0.04 Y = $201
-345 + 0.03Y + 0.04Y =201
0.07Y = 546
Y = 7800 at 4 %
Calculate X
X = 11500 - Y
= 11500 - 7800
=3700 at - 3%
Check
-0.03×3700 + 0.04 × 7800 = $201
-111 + 312 = $201
$201 = $201

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

\frac{5}{56} salt does she need for her recipe.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

For her recipe:

She needs = \frac{5}{7} of a cup of sugar.

It is also given that: 1/8 as much salt as sugar.

⇒ She needs salt for her recipe = \frac{1}{8} \cdot \frac{5}{7} = \frac{5}{7 \cdot 8} = \frac{5}{56}

Therefore, \frac{5}{56} salt does she need for her recipe.
