Lets be a price of the calculator - $ a
then , after using the coupon, you need to pay $(a-18)
and after using 15% discount , you need to pay (1-0.15)a=0.85a

then, if
(a-18) will be more than 0.85a, you should prefer 0.15 % discount, because it will be cheaper,

a-18> 0.85a
a-0.85a>18
0.15a > 18
a>120, that means that if the price of the calculator more than $120, 15% discount is better,
but if the price of the calculator is less than $120, you should choose $ 18 coupon.

for example, we have the price of the calculator $100
100-18=82,
100*0.85 =85, coupon is better.

If the price of the calculator $200
200-18=182,
200*0.85=170, so 15% discount is better

if price of the calculator is $120,
120-18=102
120*0.85=102,
it will not matter, what you are going to use, because you are going to pay the same amount of money

A gold mine has two elevators one for equipment and another for miners. The elevator for the miners descends 13 feet per second.

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The equipment elevator is positioned 481 feet closer and the miner equipment is positioned 342 feet closer relative to the surface. The equipment elevator is deeper.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate that both elevators descend are the same according to the information given in the question.

After 18 seconds, the equipment elevator has descended 18 x 13 = 234 feet.

After another 19 seconds, the equipment elevator has descended for a total of 37 seconds which results in 481 feet and the miner elevator has descended for 19 seconds which gives us a descend of 342 feet.

So they are 481 and 342 feet closer relative to the surface and the equipment elevator is deeper since it has descended for a longer period of time.

I hope this answer helps.

Ethan bought 3 pints of raspberries for $5 per pint and x pints of blueberries for $3 per pint. The average

bagirrra123 [75]

The y-intercept represents the average cost, in dollars per pint, of all the raspberries Ethan bought. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Given that, Ethan bought 3 pints of raspberries for $5 per pint and x pints of blueberries for $3 per pint.

The average is (15 + 3x)/(3+x) per pint.

We need to find what quantity will be represented by the y-intercept of the graph.

<h3>How to find the y-intercept of the graph?</h3>

Since the y-intercept always has a corresponding x-value of 0, replace x with 0 in the equation and solve for y. On a graph, the y-intercept can be found by finding the value of y when x=0. This is the point at which the graph crosses through the y-axis.

Now, the graph of y=(15 + 3x)/(3+x)is given below.

To find the x-intercept, substitute in 0 for y and solve for x. To find the y-intercept, substitute in 0 for x and solve for y.

x-intercept(s): (−5,0)

y-intercept(s): (0,5)

So, the y-intercept represents the average cost, in dollars per pint, of all the raspberries Ethan bought.

Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
