Rick buys and sells antiques via the Internet. So far, he has profited $2,502. Based on his profits to date, he developed the fo

kow [346]

Answer:

d. An additional month of buying and selling is associated with an additional $417 in profits.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have general form of intercept form of equation:

y = m*x + c ----- (A)

Given equation is : y = 2502 + 417*x

Rewrite equation: y = 417*x + 2502 ------(B)

comparing equation (B) with equation (A), we get

m = 417 (additional benefits per month) because multiplied factor x is the month.

From the equation y−3=−2(x+1), identify the slope and a point on the line.

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

slope = - 2, point on line = (- 1, 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

y - 3 = - 2(x + 1) ← is in point- slope form

with slope m = - 2 and (a, b ) = (- 1, 3 )

MAXIMUM POINT WILL BE GIVEN!!! I NEED THIS RN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Part a) The variables are

x (the number of packages of Twinkies that were sold)

y (the number o boxes of juice that were sold)

Part b) The system of equations is

$x+y=79$ and $1.65x+1.36y=118.17$

Part c) $x=37,y=42$

Part d) The value of y represent the number of boxes of juice that were sold $y=42\ boxes\ of\ juice$

The value of x represent the number of packages of Twinkies that were sold $x=37\ packages\ of\ Twinkies$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Define the variables in this situation

Let

x-----> the number of packages of Twinkies that were sold

y----> the number of boxes of juice that were sold

Part b) Write a system of equations that model the problem

we know that

$x+y=79$ ------> equation A

$1.65x+1.36y=118.17$ ---> equation B

Part c) Use the linear combination method to find the solution to the system you wrote in part b

Multiply equation A by -1.65

$-1.65(x+y)=-1.65*79$

$-1.65x-1.65y=-130.35$ ------> equation C

Adds equation C and equation B

$-1.65x-1.65y=-130.35\\1.65x+1.36y=118.17\\---------\\-1.65y+1.36y=-130.35+118.17\\-0.29y=-12.18\\y=42$

Find the value of x

$x+y=79$

$x+42=79$

$x=79-42=37$

Part d) Using a complete sentence, explain what the solution found in part c represents

The value of y represent the number of boxes of juice that were sold

so

$y=42\ boxes\ of\ juice$

The value of x represent the number of packages of Twinkies that were sold

so

$x=37\ packages\ of\ Twinkies$

5. Select ALL of the following expressions that are linear functions (they do not need to be in slope-intercept form).

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The following are the LINEAR functions.

$2x\:+\:4\:=\:3x\:-\:8$

$y = 3x - 2$

$1$

$3x\:+\:-y\:=\:24$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that linear functions are the equations with a straight line graph in an XY plane.

Also, a linear function is a function of the form

$f(x)=mx+b$

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The only power of the variable is 1.

So, from the given expressions we can determine that:

1) $y^2=\:5x\:+2$

$y^2=\:5x\:+2$ is NOT a linear function because the power of y is 2, hence the graph won't be a straight line. Therefore, it is not a linear function

2) $2x\:+\:4\:=\:3x\:-\:8$

$2x\:+\:4\:=\:3x\:-\:8$

$x=12$

This is a linear equation is an equation of a straight line, written in one variable. The only power of the variable is 1

3) $y = 3x - 2$

$y = 3x - 2$ is a linear function because it is of the form $f(x)=mx+b$ and the power of its x and y variables is 1. Hence, the function has a straight line graph.

4) $y\:+\:x^2\:=\:12$

$y\:+\:x^2\:=\:12$ is NOT a linear function because the power of x is 2, hence the graph won't be a straight line. Therefore, it is not a linear function.

5) $y\:=\:x^2\:+\:2x$

$y\:=\:x^2\:+\:2x$ is NOT a linear function because the power of x is 2, hence the graph won't be a straight line. Therefore, it is not a linear function.

6) $1$

$1$ is a constant function and a constant function is also considered linear in this context, as it is a polynomial of degree $0$ or is the $0$ polynomial.

7) $3x\:+\:-y\:=\:24$

$3x\:+\:-y\:=\:24$ is a linear function as the power of its x and y variables is 1. Hence, the function has a straight line graph. Therefore, it is a linear function.

In a summary, the following are the LINEAR functions.

$2x\:+\:4\:=\:3x\:-\:8$

$y = 3x - 2$

$1$

$3x\:+\:-y\:=\:24$
