A general equation to use for this situation is y = mx + b.
For this question, we can assume that y is total cost, m is cost per balloon, x is the amount of balloons, and b as the service fee; so we can set the equation up:
y = (4.50)x + 12
And we can further plug in the total cost to find the number of balloons purchased for the party:
79.50 = (4.50)x + 12
Now we can solve for x (number of balloons):
67.50 = (4.50)x
x = 15
The total number of balloons purchased for the party is 15.
50% of 40 is 20, and 40% of 50 is 20, neither one is greater, they're equal
This is the concept of scale factor. The linear scale factor is given by:
(height of sculpture)/(height of clothespin)
=20/(5/12)
=48
Given that a woman is 5ft 7 in, the sculpture of this woman would be:
height of sculpture=(scale factor)*(height of the woman)
height of the woman=5 ft 7 inches=5 7/12 ft=67/12 ft
hence the height of the sculpture will be:
67/12×48
=268 ft
Answer: 268 ft
Using the midpoint formula we get:
(x,y)=(0+5/2, 0+12/2) or (5/2, 6) as the midpoint.
Answer:
A. -4
Step-by-step explanation:
F(-1) means we must plug the number "-1" in for each x.
F(x) = x^2 + 3x - 2
F(-1) = (-1)^2 + 3(-1) - 2
= 1 - 3 - 2
= -4
