First month's profit of the company = $2,400.
After the first month, the profit is modeled by the function
J(t) = 2.5t + 1,250, t is the number of months after the first month the shop opened.
Now, P(t) describes the total profit earned by the company.
So, P(t) = (Profit earned from first month) + (Profit earned from remaining 11 months of the year)
= 2400 + (2.5t + 1250)
<u><em>= 2.5t + 3650</em></u>
Hence, total profit earned for the year = 2.5t + 3650.
Direct Proportion functions look like this:
y=kx
'k' is the constant of proportionality and in this case its 7.5 or 15/2.
--------------------------------------------
When x=1, y=7.5
When x=2, y=15
When x=3, y=22.5
Therefore y is directly proportional to x.

DIRECT PROPORTION EXPLAINED:
Say a football costs £7.50. If you buy one football you'll have to pay out £7.50, but if you you buy two footballs you'll have to pay out £15.00. Therefore the cost of the football(s) is directly proportional to the amount of footballs you buy. C=cost, f=football(s) and C<span>∝f, therefore C=kf, but as k=7.5, C=7.5f.
INVERSE PROPORTION EXPLAINED:
If it were to take 8 hours for one bricklayer to set up a wall, how long would it take for two bricklayers to set up a wall? The answer in this case would be 4 hours.
T=time to set up a wall
b=bricklayer(s)
Therefore T</span><span>∝1/b, and T=k/b. In this case k=8 so T=8/b.
When b=1, T=8.
When b=2, T=4.
We'd say that the time it would take for bricklayers to set up a wall would be inversely proportional to the amount of bricklayers available.</span>
Answer: 6,520 miles per year
Step-by-step explanation:
They had driven the car for 53,790 miles in 8.25 years.
The average number of number of miles driven per year is:
= 53,790 / 8.25 years
= 6,520 miles per year
<em>They drove an average of 6,520 miles per year.</em>
Answer:
See explanartions below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the coordinates A(-6,3) B(0,5) C(2,-1)
We first need to get the slope of AB, BC and AC
For AB;
A(-6,3) B(0,5)
Mab = 5-3/0-(-6)
Mab = 2/6
Mab = 1/3
For BC;
B(0,5) C(2,-1)
Mbc = -1-5/2-0
Mbc = -6/2
Mc = -3
For AC:
A(-6,3) C(2,-1)
Mac = -1-3/2-(-6)
MAc = -4/8
Mac = -1/2
Taking the product of Mab and Mbc
Mab * Mbc = 1/3 + -3
Mab * Mbc = -1
<em>Since the product of Mab and Mbc is -1, hence AB abd BC are perpendicular showing that one of the angle of triangle ABC is 90 degrees</em>
