On your calculator your write 8 on the y axis and 4 on the x axis
Answer:
That's all you're doing is writing the equation for two lines and finding out where they intersect. The slope is how much the price is increasing or decreasing and the y-intercept is where the price is starting at.
x = number of hours
y = mx + b = 0.12(x + 3) + 15.21 {It's (x + 3) because we have to add the 3 hours between 9 and noon}
y = mx + b = -0.11x + 15.96 {The slope is negative because the price is decreasing}
Set them equal to each other
0.12(x+3) + 15.21 = -0.11x + 15.96
Now solve for x
0.12x + 0.36 + 15.21 = -0.11x + 15.96
0.12x + 15.57 = -0.11x + 15.96
0.12x + 0.11x = 15.96 - 15.57
0.23x = 0.39
x = 0.38 / 0.23 = 1.7 hours
Convert 0.7 into minutes
0.7 hours * (60 min / 1 hour) = 42 min
So the prices are the same 1 hour and 42 min after noon, which is 1:42 PM

Answer:
$11,714
Step-by-step explanation:
C(x) = 0.7x² - 462x + 87,944
this is a quadratic equation that opens up
the vertex will be the minimum
From the quadratic formula the x coordinate of the vertex is
x = -b/2a
x = 462/(2 * 0.7)
x = 330
Plug in
c(330) = 0.7(330²) - 462(330) + 87,944
c(330) = 11,714
$11,714

To add a mixed number you must first convert it into a heavy headed fraction eg. 12/4
Then you must find a common denominator for all of the fractions like you normally do for regular addition of fractions
After you have added them you must convert the heavy headed fraction back into a mixed number by seeing how many times the numerator goes into the denominator
