Problem: A bus company took a tour bus on the ferry when there were 30 people aboard. The ferry charged the bus company $180. The following week, the bus had 50 people on board and the ferry charged them $220. How much is the "base rate" for the empty bus? How much does each person cost? Show this using y = mx + b form.
Solution:
Let x = the number of people on the bus
Let y = the total cost for the bus with its passengers to use the ferry.
Then, when there are 30 people on the bus (x = 30), the cost was $180 (y = 180). This means the point (x, y) = (30, 180).
Also, when there were 50 people on the bus, the cost was $220. So that is the point (50, 220).
You see - we have two points and so we can write the equation of a line that goes through those points. The first thing we have to do is find the slope.
The slope of the line joining two points is the rise divided by the run. That means
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
So we put in the values of (30, 180) and (50, 220):
m = (220 - 180) / (50 - 30)
m = 40 / 20
m = 2.
The slope is 2. Now we can write it in the form y = mx + b, using 2 for m:
y = 2x + b.
This equation connects both points, so that means it goes through those points. We want to know "b" next, so we can now substitute in either point for the x and the y. I will substitute in x = 50 and y = 220:
220 = 2(50) + b
220 = 100 + b
b + 100 = 220
b = 120.
Now I know the b and the m, so I can finally write the full y=mx + b form of the equation:
y = 2x + 120.
For the other questions, I can look at the equation I got. The y-intercept (b value) is $120. That means that we are adding $120 on to the price all the time. That's the price for the empty bus. The 2x means to multiply the number of people by two and add this to the $120. So each person is $2.
Here's an example: if you had just 10 people on the bus, you'd pay $120 for the empty bus and $2 for each person. That's $20 for the people and $120 for the bus. That total is $140. Let's see if (10, 140) works in the equation we got:
y = 2x + 120
140 ?=? 2(10) + 120
140 ?=? 20 + 120
yes. 140 = 140. It does work.
Now you try it with your question.
(-2/5)-(-1/8)
Need to make the denominators the same
(-16/40)-(-5/40)
Multiply -2/5 by 8
Multiply -1/8 by 8
-- sign= positive
-16/40+5/40
Answer=-11/40
Answer:
A' is (1,1) B is (4,1) C is (1,-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we rotating the figure about point a, we know a is the center of the rotation meaning no matter how far we rotate point a new image will stay on where point a pre image was which in this case is (1,1). Also since we know the rules of rotating a angle 90 degrees About the origin we are going to translate the figure to have the one point we are rotating about at the orgin. Since translations are a rigid transformations, the figure will stay the same A. Move the figure 1 to the left and 1 down so A becomes 0,0 B becomes 0,3 and C becomes 2,0. Then apply the rules of 90 degree clockwise rotation rules. (x,y) goes to (y,-x) . A stays (0,0) B becomes (3,0) and C becomes (0,-2). Then translate the figure 1 to the right and 1 down since we rotating about point a which is 1,1 and it at 0,0 rn. A' is 1,1. B' becomes (4,1). C' becomes (1,-1).
Given is :
The area of the rectangular patio is = 130 square feet
Let the width of the patio be = x feet
As length is 3 feet more than the width, so the length is = x+3 feet
Now area of rectangle is = length * width






This gives either x-10=0 or x+13=0
x-10=0 ; x=10
x+13=0 ; x=-13 (neglect this negative value)
So, the width of the patio is = 10 feet
Length = 10+3 = 13 feet
