Mathematics
1 answer:
Ugo [173]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

- 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = y2 - y1 /x2 - x1

Given

x1 = 8

y1 = 8

x2 = 12

y2 = 6

Slope = 6 - 8 /12 - 8

= -2/4

= - 1/2

= - 0.5

Select the correct answer. A dormitory manager buys 38 bed sheets and 61 towels for $791.50. The manager get another 54 bed shee
svetlana [45]

Okay, let's represent the price of a bed sheet with 'b' and a towel with 't':

54b + 50t = 923

38b + 61t = 791.50

Now, if we subtract both sides by 54b (on the first equation), we get this:

50t = 923 - 54b

Divide both sides by 50:

t = 18.46 - 1.08b

Now that we know this, we can move on to the 2nd equation:

38b + 61t = 791.50

Input the variable 't':

38b + 61(18.46 - 1.08b) = 791.5

38b + 1126.06 - 65.88b = 791.5

38b - 65.88b = 791.5 - 1126.06

Simplify:

-27.88b = -334.56

Because both sides are negative, we can turn it into a positive:

27.88b = 334.56

b = 334.56/27.88

b = 12

Now that we know that b = 12, we can easily input it into any equation:

648 + 50t = 923

50t = 275

t = 5.5

One bed sheet costs $12 and one towel costs $5.50

Option C is the answer.

A small-business owner will lease a billboard to advertise her business. The table shows the linear relationship between the cos
soldi70 [24.7K]

It would take about 25 months for the cost of leasing a billboard be the same for both companies.

<h3>Linear function</h3>

A linear function is in the form:

y = mx + b

Where y,x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y.

Let P represent the cost to lease a billboard from a different company for x months. Given that:

P(x) = 100x

For the second company, let C represent the cost, hence using the table point (1, 580) and (5, 900):

C - 580 = [(900 - 580)/(5 - 1)](x - 1)

C = 80x + 500

For the same cost:

100x = 80x + 500

x = 25 months

It would take about 25 months for the cost of leasing a billboard be the same for both companies.
