HELP PLEASE!! The cost to fill a car's tank with gas and get a car wash is a linear function of the capacity of the tank. The co

sts of a fill-up and a car wash for three different customers are shown in the table. Write an equation for the function in slope-intercept form. Then, find the cost of a fill-up and a car wash for a customer with a truck whose tank size is 25 gallons.

The equation would be y=2.10x+3.25!


Also know as A lol


If you plug in 9 as x and add 3.25 it is an easy way to check the answers for further questions!


Have a good day! :-)


If it is not correct or doesn't look quite right or needs to show proof please comment!

Answer:

f(x)=2.1x+3.25

<h2>Cost for truck = $55.75.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To right the linear equation in slope-intercept form, we first need to find the slop, which is defined

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Now, we choose to points from the table (9, 22.15) and (16, 36.85). Using this points, we calculate the slope.

m=\frac{36.85-22.15}{16-9}=\frac{14.7}{7}=2.1

Now, using one point and the slope, we find the point-slope form, which is gonna give us the slope-intercept form:

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1}))\\y-22.15=2.1(x-9)\\y=2.1x-18.9+22.15\\y=2.1x+3.25

Therefore, the right choice is the first one, because it's the only one that has this linear equation.

In addition, to find the cost for a car with 25 gallons of gas size, we just have to replace this number in the x-variable:

y=2.1(25)+3.25=55.75

Therefore, the cost for a truck with a tank size of 25 gallons, is $55.75.

Use intercepts to graph the linear equation 4x +6y=12
Ratling [72]
X intercept: when Y = 0
Y intercept: when X = 0
Plug into equation
4x + 6(0) = 12
4x = 12, x = 3
Therefore x int = (3,0)
4(0) + 6y = 12
6y = 12, y = 2
Therefore y int = (0,2)
Plug those points then draw a line through them

Fareed wants to add 1/4 +5/8 Add the fractions by using the giant one to create a common denominator
saul85 [17]

Hi!

This question is about math.

\frac{1}{4}+\frac{5}{8}

<u><em>Least Common Factor 4 or 8: 8</em></u>

<u><em>Factors of 4 : 1, 2, 4 (prime factorization) (2*2)</em></u>

<u><em>Factors of 8: 1, 2, 4, 8 (prime factorization) (2*2*2)</em></u>

<u><em>Least Common Factor of a,b is the smallest positive number that divisible by both a and b.</em></u>

<em>Multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either 4 or 8.</em>

<em>Then multiply by the numbers.</em>

2*2*2

=8

<em>Multiply each numerator by the same amount needed to multiply its corresponding denominator to turn it into the Least Common Factor of 8.</em>

<em>For 1/4 multiply the denominator and numerator by the 2.</em>

\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1*2}{4*2}=\frac{2}{8}

\frac{2}{8}+\frac{5}{8}

<em>Since the denominator are equal, combine the fractions.</em>

\frac{2+5}{8}

<em>Add the numbers 2+5=7</em>

=\frac{7}{8}

Hope this helps! Thank you for posting your question at here on Brainly. Have a great day.

Pleaseeeeee help me i appreciate it​

Answer:

Choice A (older trees are generally taller than younger trees)

Step-by-step explanation:

As you increase the x value, the y value tends to increase as well.  Choice B is incorrect because the points are clustered together in a linear fashion, showing correlation. Choice C is incorrect because the fact that they are clustered around a line of best fit shows high correlation. Choice D is incorrect because a negative correlation coefficient would mean the y decreases as x increases.
