B
There isn't much to explain here. It's vocabulary
1. The two equations follow the slope-intercept form which y=mx + b. They have the same y-intercept which is equal to 900.
2. Suppose x= 10
Plan Alpha: y=-7x+900=-7(10)+900=830
Plan Foxtrot: y = -17x+900 = -17(10)+900=730
Between the 2 plans, the lower value is 730. Plan Foxtrot is better for reduction of pollution.
3. The city council should choose Plan Foxtrot because the reduction of pollution is much greater. Their goal would be reached faster if they go with faster reduction of pollution.
Answer:
A. 5400-8x
B. $600
Step-by-step explanation:
5400-8x=600
8x=5400-600
x=4800/8=600
Answer:
x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
-8-3x=-8(1-7x)
add 8 to both sides =( -3x=56x)
subtract 56x from both sides (-59x=0)
divide both sides by -59 = (x=0)
