2/11=16/x
Cross Multiply
2x= 176
Solve for x.
x=88 minutes.

2/11=19/x
Cross Multiply
2x=209
Solve for x.
X=104.5 minutes.

Answer:

It will take 88 minutes to add 16 seats.

It will take 104.5 minutes to add 19 seats.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent number of minutes.

We have been given that an assembly line worker at Rob's Bicycle factory adds a seat to a bicycle to a rate of 2 seats in 11 minutes.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

\frac{\text{Number of minutes}}{\text{Number of seats}}=\frac{11}{2}

\frac{m}{\text{Number of seats}}=\frac{11}{2}

To find the time taken to add 16 seats, we will \text{Number of seats}=16 in our proportion as:

\frac{m}{16}=\frac{11}{2}

\frac{m}{16}*16=\frac{11}{2}*16

m=11*8

m=88

Therefore, it will take 88 minutes to add 16 seats.

To find the time taken to add 19 seats, we will \text{Number of seats}=19 in our proportion as:

\frac{m}{19}=\frac{11}{2}

\frac{m}{19}*19=\frac{11}{2}*19

m=11*9.5

m=104.5

Therefore, it will take 104.5 minutes to add 19 seats.

Function 1: y = 4x + 5
evablogger [386]
Answer: function 1

Rate of change of function 1:
Following the format of y=mx+c, the rate of change should be m, so, the rate of change for function 1 = 4

To find the gradient (rate of change):
The two points the line passes through are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), which in this case is (1, 6) and (3, 10)
(Doesn't matter which is which but you need to make sure that once you decide which is which, you stick to it)
To calculate the gradient, you substitute these values following (y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2)

Gradient of function 2 = (10 - 6)/(3 - 1)
= 2

Therefore, since 4 > 2, rate of change of function 1 > rate of change of function 2.

Solve the following system of linear equations by graphing.
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

For y=-\frac{1}{2}+3: (0,3) (2,2)

The equation is in slope intercept form. y=mx+b

The y intercept is 3.

The slope is 1/2.

Moving one unit down and 2 units to the right, we get (2,2)

For y=2x-2: (0,-2) (1,0)

The y intercept is -2.

The slope is 2.

Moving 2 units up and 1 unit to the right, we get (1,0)
