[HELP!! GIVING 40 POINTS]Consider the function f(x)=2x+6, create a situation that would model this function.
1 answer:
(Above is the graph for the line)
Situation:
You are signing up for a book club. The get-in price is 6. Every month, you have to pay 2 dollars.
How This Works:
y=mx+b
M=Slope
B=y intercept.
Y intercept is the starting point. The beginning out. In this case, the y intercept is 6. So, in our situation, 6 is the joining fee. The beginning amount. Slope is the the rate of change. The slope in this problem is 2. Since the monthly fee is 2, that would make it the slope

Answer: $16,200
Step-by-step explanation:
rent.
Raise of 2.5% (0.025)/year.
5 years.
Take the rent (14,400) and add 2.5% (0.025) of it (14400) for five (5) years.
<u>Let's solve this problem step-by-step</u>
<u>Let's set</u>:
2x + 6y = 36 -- equation 1
x + 4y = 20 -- equation 2
(equation 2) * 2
2x + 8y = 40 -- equation 3
(equation 3) - (equation 1)
2y = 4
y = 2 -- equation 4
Plug (equation 4)'s value of y into (equation 2)
x + 4(2) = 20
x = 20 - 8
x = 12
<u>Thus x = 12 and y = 2</u>
<u>Let's check, by substituting these values</u>
<u>Answer: x = 12 and y = 2</u>
Hope that helps!
