Answer:
figure skates will be $1 cheaper.
Explanation:
<u>given equation</u>:
- to rent figure skates : f(x) = 1.50x + 2
- to rent hockey skates : h(x) = 2x +1.5
<u>solve for rent of figure skates</u>:
f(x) = 1.50x + 2.00
f(3) = 1.50(3) + 2.00
f(3) = 6.5
<u>solve for rent of hockey skates</u>:
h(x) = 2x + 1.5
h(3) = 2(3) +1.5
h(3) = 7.5
<u>cheaper - figure skates than hockey skates</u>:
$7.5 - $6.5
$1
The tangent to
at the point (0, 5) has a slope equal to the derivative evaluated at
.

This tangent passes through the point (0, 5), so its equation is

The normal line passes through the same point, but is perpendicular to the tangent line, so its slope is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the tangent. So the equation for the normal line is

The answer to your question is 8, so letter C
424/8 =53
(288 - 144)/(6 - 3) = 144/3 = 48
