Answer:
- slope: cost per mile
- y-intercept: fixed base cost
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. The problem statement tells you that x is the number of miles driven, and y is the rental cost.
When the number of miles driven is zero, the rental cost is ...
y = 2.25×0 +70
y = 70
The cost of renting the truck is $70 when it isn't driven anywhere. The y-intercept ($70) is the basic, fixed cost of truck rental.
__
If x=1 (1 mile driven), then 2.25 is added to the cost of the truck rental. The slope (2.25) is the cost per mile driven. (That mileage cost is added to the basic rental cost.)
The answer is 5 gallons
Its very simple.
Turn 60% and 10% into decimals ( .60 and .10)
Multiply 8 gallons ( brand A ) by .60 and you get 4.8 gallons
Multiply 2 gallons ( brand B ) by .10 and you get .2 gallons
Add them up and you get 5 gallons.
Every time the line is vertical, the slope is ‘no slope or undefined’.
Answer:
The equation would be y - 1 = 1/3(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, we simply plug the values we have into point slope form.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = 1/3(x - -2)
y - 1 = 1/3(x + 2)
Answer:
429
Step-by-step explanation:
312/800 = .39
1100 x .39 = 429
