You want to get familiar with what the slope-intercept form equation means. even though the discussion board covers some of this... slope-intercept is y = mx + b, and in it, x and y are a point on your graph (x, y), m is the slope, and b is your y-intercept. in word problems, any constant will typically be b.
but, really, to answer this word problem, you don't have to think so hard about y = mx + b. just read the problem and bring your information together:
"the venue will cost $1500 to rent for an evening"
"$25 per person"
so they only gave you two bits of information, and you just have to decide where they fit. if the venue costs $1500 for an evening, that's a fixed cost--the 1500 isn't going to go up or down depending on the number of people at the charity event. it stays. you're paying 1500 regardless, even if 2 people show up. because the discussion board states that b should represent your starting amount, you're automatically $1500 in the hole, because you have to spend that much to get the venue. you will, however, write it as a positive integer, because the question wants you to calculate the total cost, by my understanding--you're adding the cost of the people with the cost of the venue.
$25 is not a fixed amount. if it's $25 per person, then if 2 people come, it costs $50, if 3 people arrive, it costs $75. this cost is dependent upon the number of people, which you can call "x"
with that information, write any other equation you would for a word problem:
y = 25x + 1500
that's your equation, and it just so happens that this equation is in y = mx + b format. the x-value represents the number of people who show up for the charity; the y-value represents the overall cost.
and you need three solutions for this equation--which, luckily, is a quick and easy process!! choose an x-value and solve for y.
y = 25x + 1500
when x = 1...
y = 25(1) + 1500
y = 25 + 1500
y = 1525
ordered pair: (1, 1525)
when x = 2...
y = 25(2) + 1500
y = 50 + 1500
y = 1550
ordered pair: (2, 1550)
when x = 3...
y = 25(3) + 1500
y = 75 + 1500
y = 1575
ordered pair: (3, 1575)
i hope that helped!!
Answer:
it will take 1.4 hours for the two trains to be 294 miles apart
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t be the time taken for each train
The westbound train travels at 95 miles per hour.
Speed of westbound train = 95
time = t
Distance = speed * time = 95 t
The eastbound train travels at 115 miles per hour
Speed of eastbound train = 115
time = t
Distance = speed * time = 115 t
both trains are 294 miles apart means the distance between both trains are 294 miles
So we add the distance of both trains and set it equal to 294
95t + 115t = 294
210 t =294
t = 1.4
So, it will take 1.4 hours for the two trains to be 294 miles apart
Answer:
g( f(2)+3) = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>step(i)</u>:-
Given function g(t)=t²-t and f(x)=1+x
given f(x)=1+x
f(2) = 1 + 2 =3
<u><em>step(ii)</em></u>:-
g( f(2)+3) = g(3 + 3)
= g(6)
= (6)² - 6
= 36 -6
= 30
<u><em>Conclusion</em></u>:-
g( f(2)+3) = 30
THE PROBABILITY IS likely to be one half half of the slice of the pizza
