Answer:
<h3>A. 1 hour</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
If one cleaning company's cost can be calculated by the expression 75 + 50x, where x is the amount of hours they spend cleaning and another cleaning company's cost can be calculated using the expression 50 + 75x, then to calculate how long each company will have to clean to cost the same amount, we will equate both expression of the company cost and solve for x as shown;
On equating:
75 + 50x, = 75x + 50
collect like terms'
50x-75x = 50-75
-25x = -25
divide both sides by -25
-25x/-25 = -25/-25
x = 1
hence the number of hours each company will have to clean to cost the same amount is 1 hour
I think it's the second equation. I could be wrong but I think that's what it is
Answer:
y=350x+125
Step-by-step explanation:
y=350x+125
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to determine the information you're being asked for, you need to complete the square on that quadratic. The first step is to move the constant over to the other side of the equals sign:

Here would be the step where, if the leading coefficient isn't a 1, you'd factor it out. But ours is a 1, so we're good there. Now take half the linear term (the term with the single x on it), square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is a -2. Half of -2 is -1, and -1 squared is +1. We add +1 to both sides giving us this:

Now we'll clean it up a bit. The right side becomes a 4, and the left side is written as its perfect square binomial, which is the whole reason we did this. That binomial is
(set equal to the 4 here). Now we'll move the 4 back over and set the whole thing back equal to y:

From this it's apparent what the vertex is: (1, -4),
the axis of symmetry is x = 1, and
the y-intercept is found by setting the x's equal to 0 in the original equation and solving for y. So the y-intercept is (0, -3).
Your choice for the correct answer is the very last one there.
After buying the cookies, they both lost money but still share the same balance because in the question it says they went to the store together and decided to buy some cookies, splitting they cost equally, Key word Equally. since they spent the same amount as one another they still share the same balance.
