Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
- t = time (in hours) → this is the independent variable
- s = total area cleaned (in square feet) → this is the dependent variable (as the number of square feet cleaned depends on the number of hours worked)
Therefore, if the rate of cleaning is 8 1/4 square feet per hour, the relationship between s and t is:

Answer:
The area of the paralellogram is 24 square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Geometrically speaking, the area of the parallelogram has an equation equivalent to the area formula for a rectangle, that is:
(1)
Where:
- Area.
- Base.
- Height.
The base and height of the parallelogram are, respectively:
Base


Height


Then, the area of the parallelogram is:


The area of the paralellogram is 24 square units.
I am going to explain this using the substitution method, considering it appears to be the best in this situation.
We know (from the bottom equation) that y can equal 3x+20. Using this knowledge, we substitute the y in the top equation for 3x+20. Now, we have an equation that looks like this:
3x+20=x^2+2x
Now we need to move x to one side and then do some radicals (square roots).
Subtract the 2x on the right (since it is smaller, negatives = NONONO), which will give you
x+20=x^2
Now, we take the square root of both sides to get
rad(x+20)=x
Now we have to simplify. 20 doesn't have a square root, but 4 goes into 20, and 4 has a square root of 2. This now becomes
2rad(x+5)
This doesn't simplify any further... we have a problem... no way to isolate x as far as my knowledge goes... Sorry, can't help you any further than that, but another person or your teacher might be able to. R.I.P...
Answer:
f(x)= 7.5x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
you have 3 dollars just there, and you get 7.50 per car wash, so that is the x
