Answer:
Positive
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple ways we can go about this.
First, we can see that as x increases, so does y, so that means its positive
For perspective, if x is the amount of time and y is the number of sales, we can see that the sales are going up and not going down or staying at the same place
If you wanna check your work on that, you can plot two points and find the slope using y1-y1/x1-x2 and the slope will be positive.
We can also use the process of elimination, we know it can't be zero because it's not a straight, horizontal line and we know its not undefined because it isn't a straight vertical line, so it's between negative and positive, and since the line is going up, that means that it's positive.
Step-by-step explanation:

This is the equation of the ellipse. Since the denominator is greater for the y values, we have a vertical ellipse. Remember a>b, so a
The formula for the foci of the vertical ellipse is
(h,k+c) and (h,k-c).
where c is
Our center (h,k) is (2, -5)

Here a^2 is 9, b^2 is 4.



So our foci is

The car would travel 135 miles bc you multiply 81×5 and get 405 ,then divide that answer by 3
Answer: a) c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1, b) 13 units
Step-by-step explanation: Revenue function = R(x) = 0.21x
Profit function = p(x) = 0.086 - 1.1
Cost function = c(x) =?
A)
Recall that profit = total revenue - total cost
Hence, total cost = total revenue - profit
c(x) = 0.21x - (0.086x - 1.1)
c(x) = 0.21x - 0.086x + 1.1
c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1
B)
Break even point is the point where total revenue equals total cost
R(x) = c(x)
0.21x = 0.124x + 1.1
0.21x - 0.124x = 1.1
0.086x = 1.1
x = 1.1/0.086
x = 12.79 which is approximately 13 units
Answer:
x = 5/2 & x = 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Create two equations and solve
1) 2x-5 = 0 & 2) 3x-1 = 0
1) 2x = 5
x = 5/2
2) 3x = 1
x = 1/3
You create two equations as you want the left hand side (LHS) to equal 0 (RHS), thus if one of the brackets becomes 0 it will result in the whole LHS beocming 0 as the brackets are being multiplied (anything multiplied by 0 = 0)
