Difference in doughnuts = 50 - 40 = 10
Difference in money = 15 + 5 = 20

20 ÷ 10 = $2
Each doughnut costs $2

<em>Check:</em>
40 x 2 + 5 = $85
50 x 2 -15 = $85
Ravi has $85 at first.

Each doughnut costs $2

Sal's Sandwich Shop sells wraps and sandwiches as part of its lunch specials. The profit on every sandwich is $2 and the profit
Virty [35]
Hence it is a simply rearrangement of the equation to start with, in order to make  the subject:






This is the graph in 'slope-intercept' form. From here it is easy to see that gradient  = and that y-intercept = 490.

The easiest way to draw a straight-line graph, such as this one, is to plot the y-intercept, in this case (0, 490), then plot another point either side of it at a fair distance (for example substitute  = -5 and  = 5 to procure two more sets of co-ordinates). These can be joined up with a straight line to form a section of the graph, which would otherwise extend infinitely either side - use the specified range in the question for x-values, and do not exceed it (clearly here the limit of -values is 0 ≤ x ≤ 735, since neither x nor y can be negative within the context of the question - the upper limit was found by substituting  = 0).

In function notation, the graph is:



The graph of this function represents how the value of the function varies as the value of x varies. Looking back at the question context, this graph specifically represents how many wraps could have been sold at each number of sandwich sales, in order to maintain the same profit of $1470.

When the profit is higher, the gradient is not changed (this is defined by the relationship between the $2 and $3 prices, not the overall profit) - instead the -intercept is higher:






Therefore we have gleaned that the new y-intercept is.

Clearly I cannot see the third straight line. However the method for finding the equation of a straight line graph is fairly simple:

1. Select two points on the line and write down their coordinates
2. The gradient of the line = 
3. Find the change in  (Δ
4. Find the change in  (Δ
5. Divide the result of stage 3 by the result of stage 4
6. This is your gradient
7. Take one of your sets of coordinates, and arrange them in the form , where your  is the gradient you just calculated
8. There is only one variable left, which is  (the y-intercept). Simply solve for this
9. Now generalise the equation, in the form , by inputting your gradient and y-intercept whilst leaving the coordinates as  and 

For example if the two points were (1, 9) and (4, 6):

Δ = 6 - 9 = -3
Δ = 4 - 1 = 3
 =  = -1
I choose the point (4, 6)
6 = (-1 * 4) + c
6 = c - 4
c = 10
Therefore, generally, 

Within the context of the question, I imagine the prices of the two lunch specials will be the same in the third month and hence the gradient will still be  - this means steps 1-6 can be omitted. Furthermore if the axes are clearly labelled, you may even be able to just read off the y-intercept and hence dispose with steps 1-8!

In the problem attached, what are the measures of angles a and b
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

B = 74

A = 93

Step-by-step explanation:

opposite angles equal 180

so 180 - 106 = b

180 - 87 = A

True or false: The factor by which a row operation changed the determinant is equal to the determinant of the elementary matrix
Klio2033 [76]

The given statement is false.

What is the effect of a row operation on a determinant?

The factor by which a row operation intends to change the determinant is not equal to the determinant of the elementary matrix corresponding to that row operation. Rather, when a row is scaled up by a factor in a matrix, the determinant of that matrix also scales up by that factor.

Similarly, the factor by which a row operation changes the determinant is equal to the factor times the determinant of the elementary matrix corresponding to that row operation.

Which statements are true about the ordered pair (−4, 0) and the system of equations? {2x+y=−8x−y=−4
Reil [10]
<span>Selections (a, b, d) are the most correct answers. To begin, 2x is equal to -8 when x is (-4). Adding 0 to this (for y) gives -8, which is the answer for the first equation. Doing the same for the second equation gives (-4 - 0) = -4, which shows that the second equation is also correct. Since both equations are satisfied by this ordered pair, it shows that the pair (-4,0) is a solution to the entire system.</span>
