Answer:
<em>y=7x+1</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Linear modeling</u>
Consists of finding a linear equation that represents a situation in real life.
Jenny starts her stamps collection with only 1 stamp.
Then she collects 7 stamps per day.
Let's call
y=total amount of stamps in Jenny's collection
x=number of days
Knowing Jenny collects 7 stamps per day, then in x days, she collects 7x stamps. The total amount can be obtained by adding the first stamp she had. Thus, the model is:
y=7x+1
a + b = 88 <span>
<span>
</span><span>ab = y
</span><span>
</span><span>a = 88 - b
</span><span>
</span><span>y = (88 - b)*b
</span>
<span>y = -b^2 + 88b
</span><span>
</span><span>Take the derivative and set equal to 0
</span><span>
</span><span>y' = -2b + 88 = 0
</span><span>
</span><span>2b = 88
</span>
<span>b = 44 </span></span>
<span><span>a=44</span></span>
<span><span> both numbers are 44</span></span>
Around 6 hours (exact decimal would be 5.99865). I did this by multiplying 14.85*40 (getting 594). After that, I subtracted 594 from 727.65 (getting 133.65), then multiplying 14.85 by 1.5, getting 22.28, and then, I did 133.65/22.28, getting 5.99865, which I rounded to 6.
The answer is D) isosceles and equilateral triangle
She was not supposed to "undistribute" and separate 3x+1 she was supposed to subtract 1 from both sides
