Answer:

$\large\boxed{f(x)=\dfrac{3}{2}x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{The slope-intercept formula:}\\\\y=mx+b\\\\m\ -\ slope\\b\ -\ y-intercept\\\\\text{The formula of a slope:}\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\text{From the table we hve two points (0, -1) and (2, 2). Substitute:}\\\\m=\dfrac{2-(-1)}{2-0}=\dfrac{3}{2}$

$\text{Therefore the equation is}\ f(x)=\dfrac{3}{2}x-1\\\\\text{Check for the point (4, 5):}\\\\f(4)=\dfrac{3}{2}(4)-1=(3)(2)-1=6-1=5\qquad\ CORRECT$

Find the area of an equilateral triangle with 12-inch altitudes

Nina [5.8K]

$\textit{height of an equilateral triangle}\\\\ h=\cfrac{s\sqrt{3}}{2}~~ \begin{cases} s=\stackrel{side's}{length}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ h=12 \end{cases}\implies 12=\cfrac{s\sqrt{3}}{2}\implies 24=s\sqrt{3}\implies \cfrac{24}{\sqrt{3}}=s \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\textit{area of an equilateral triangle}\\\\ A=\cfrac{s^2\sqrt{3}}{4}\qquad \qquad A=\cfrac{~~ \left( \frac{24}{\sqrt{3}} \right)^2 \sqrt{3}~~}{2}\implies A=\cfrac{~~ \frac{24^2}{3} \sqrt{3}~~}{2} \\\\\\ A=\cfrac{192\sqrt{3}}{2}\implies A=96\sqrt{3}\implies A\approx 166.28$

You are in charge of the Annual Powder Puff football game. You designed a t-shirt to sell during the event. A company charges $7

vekshin1

We're looking for C(h), where h is the hundreds of shirts. The fact that they cost "$500 for each additional 100 t-shirt" tells us the slope is 500. Knowing that 1 hundred costs 750, we could use point-slope at this point: (C - 750)/(h - 1) = 500C - 750 = 500h - 500C(h) = 500h + 250 We can check that C(1) = 750 and C(2) = 1250, as we expect. I'll leave it to you to evaluate C(5).

How do you solve the inequality 6y+3> -18x

Alex17521 [72]

$6y + 3 \ \textgreater \ - 18 x$

Subtract 3 from both sides:

$6 y + 3 - 3 \ \textgreater \ - 18 x - 3$

$6y \ \textgreater \ - 18 x - 3$

Dividade both sides by 6 :

$\frac{6y}{6} \ \textgreater \ \frac{-18x-3}{6}$

$y \ \textgreater \ \frac{-18x-3}{6}$

hope this helps!

Which situation could be represented by the graph?

Ymorist [56]

The correct option which resembles with the given graph is $\fbox{\begin\\\ optionA and optionC\\\end{minispace}}$ .

Further explanation:

From the given graph the it is observed that the interval is $[8,11)$ which is a half open interval or it can be said that it is a half closed interval.

A half closed or a half open interval is an interval in which one end point of the interval is included but the other point is not included.

For example:

In an interval of the form $[a,b)$ the point $a$ is included in the set but the point $b$ is not included in the set.

Similarly, in the interval $[8,11)$ the point $8$ is included in the set but the point $11$ is not included in the set.

In order to determine the correct option which resembles with given graph form interval for each option.

Option A:

As per the statement in option A the age of the student must be at least $8$ years and not more than $11$ years that is the age of the student is either $8$ years or greater than $8$ years and less than $11$ years.

As per the above statement the interval formed is $\fbox{\begin\\\ [8,11)\\\end{minispace}}$ in which $8$ is included in the set and $11$ is not included which means it is a half closed or half opoen interval.

Therefore, $\fbox{\begin\\\ optionA\\\end{minispace}}$ is a correct option.

Option B:

As per the statement in option B the amount of money the babysitter can earn is between $\$8$ and $\$11$ per hour.

As per the above statement the interval formed is $\fbox{\begin\\\ (8,11)\\\end{minispace}}$ in which both of the end points are not included in the set which means that it is an open interval.

Therefore, $\fbox{\begin\\\ optionB\\\end{minispace}}$ is an incorrect option.

Option C:

As per the statement in option C the time required to complete a program in college cannot be less than $8$ hours and the time must be less than $11$ hours.

From the above statement it is concluded that the time required can be $8$ hours or more than $8$ hours but it has to be less than $11$ hours.

So, as per the above the statement the interval formed is $\fbox{\begin\\\ [8,11)\\\end{minispace}}$ .

Therefore, $\fbox{\begin\\\ optionC\\\end{minispace}}$ is a correct option.

Option D:

As per the statement in option D the age of the dogs is either $8$ years old or below $8$ years and age of the dog must be greater than $11$ tears.

As per the above statement the interval formed is $\fbox{\begin\\\ (-\infty,8) \bigcup(11,\infty)\\\end{minispace}}$ .

Therefore, the $\fbox{\begin\\\ optionD\\\end{minispace}}$ is an incorrect option.

So, $\fbox{\begin\\\ optionA and optionC\\\end{minispace}}$ are the correct options which resembles with the given graph.
