Any linear function is of the form y=mx+b
Here m is slope and b is y intercept.
Slope is difference in y divided by different in x values .
In the question for 5 persons cost is $100 and for 10 persons cost is $162.50
So the points are (5,100) and (10,162.50)
Slope m=
=12.50
We can find the value of b by taking m=12.50 and (x,y)=(5,100)
Substitute these values in y=mx+b
100=12.50(5)+b
100=62.50+b
Subtracting 62.50 both sides
b=100-62.50
b=37.5
a) Put m=12.50 and b=37.50 to get the equation
y=12.50x+37.50
b)Rate of change is the m value or the slope of the function.
Initial value that is (5,100) gives us one of the points to find the rate of change.
A) x + y = 110
x - y = 40
B) Melvin swims for 35 minutes every day.
C) It is not possible
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Let x denote the duration for which Melvin plays tennis and y denote the duration for which he swims
Step 2 :
Part A :
Given that the total duration for which he plays and tennis is 110 minutes
so we have x + y = 110
Also given that he plays tennis for 40 minutes more than he swims
So, x = y+ 40 =>x-y = 40
So the linear pair of equations are
x + y = 110
x-y = 40
Step 3 :
Part B
Solving the above 2 equations we have
y+40+y = 110 = > 2y+ 40 = 110 = > y = 2y = 70 = >35
x = y+40 = 35+ 40 = 75
So Melvin plays tennis for 75 minutes and swims for 35 minutes every day.
Step 4 :
Part C
Given he plays and swims for 110 mins exactly, i.e x + y = 110
If Melvin plays tennis for 70 minutes , then x = 70, then the time for which he can swim is 110 - 70 = 40 mins.
He gets only 40 mins for swimming which is not 40 mins more than he plays tennis .
So this case is not possible.
2/3 time 5
5×2 is 10 so the numerator is ten
1×3 is 3 so the denominator is three
the answer is 10/3
Answer:
From least to greatest: -2, 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Set each factor equal to 0 and solve
2x + 4 =0
2x = -4
x = -2
3x - 2 = 0
3x = 2
x = 2/3
