The cost y (in dollars) to rent a camping tent is proportional to the number x of days that the tent is rented. It costs $56 to

rent a tent for 7 days. Write an equation that represents the cost to rent a camping tent for x days. Use slope intercept form. Please help!!!!

This is the concept of algebra, we solve the question as follows:
The cost of renting a camping tent is y
The number of days is x
cost is proportional to number of days, thus:
yαx
y=kx
where k is the constant of proportionality.
If y=$56 when x=7 days, then:
56=7k
hence:
k=56/7=8
therefore:
y=kx will be:
y=8x
the equation in slope intercept form which is y=mx+c is y=8x. In our case c=0 because there was no initial payments required to rent apart from the daily charges.

Let V be the set of vectors in R2 with the following definition of addition and scalar multiplication:
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

I will denote your new addition by +', and your new scalar multiplication by * to distinguish them from the usual operations.

1) x+'y=y+'x. Yes: Let x=[a,b] and y=[c,d].  Then x+'y=[0,b+d]=[0,d+b]=y+'x

2) (x+'y)+'z=x+'(y+'z). Yes: Let x=[a,b], y=[c,d], z=[e,f]

Then (x+'y)+'z=[0,b+d]+'[e,f]=[0,(b+d)+f]=[0,b+(d+f)]=[a,b]+'[0,d+f]=x+'(y+'z)

3) There exists an element 0 in V such that x+'0=x for each x in V: No

Take x=[1,0]. Then x+'[a,b]=[0,b]≠[1,0], so 0=[a,b] does not exist (no choice of 0 works for this x)

4) For each x in V, there exists an element -x in V such that x+'(-x)=0. Yes (if 0=[0,0])

Given x=[a,b], take -x=[a,-b]. Then x+'(-x)=[0,b-b]=[0,0]=0.

5) *k(x+y)=(*kx)+'(*ky) for each scalar k and any x and y in V. Yes

Let x=[a,b] and y=[c,d]. Then *k(x+'y)=*k[0,b+d]=[0,k(b+d)]=[0,kb]+[0,kd]=*kx+*ky.

6) (s+t)*x=(*sx)+(*tx) for any scalars s and t and any x in V. Yes

Let x=[a,b]. Then (s+t)*x=[0,(s+t)b]=[0,sb]+[0,tb]=*sx+*tx

7) (*s)(*tx)=*(st)x for any scalars s and t and any x in V. Yes

Let x=[a,b]. Then (*s)(*tx)=*s[0,tb]=[0,stb]=*(st)x

8) *1x=x for all x in V. No

*1[1,2]=[0,2]≠[1,2]
