Answer:
a) 
b) $12,000
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
The cost C of moving rubble is proportional to the product of the mass M of the rubble and the distance D the rubble must be moved.
This can be written as:
a)


b) It costs 50 dollars to move 1 ton of rubble 1 mile

We have to find cost to move 16 tons 15 miles.
Putting the values in the function:

Thus, $12,00 is the cost to move 16 tons 15 miles.
The function f(x) is:
f(x)=x
This is because the line f(x) passes through the points (-1,-1), (0,0), (1,1) etc.
The function p(x) is:
p(x)=mx+C
Whereby (m) is the slope and (C) is a constant.
m=-4/3, as m=tan(ω)=O/A=-4/3 as slope is negative.
Now when y=-3, x=-3.
So:
-3=-4/3 *(-3) +C
-3= 4 + C
C=-7
This means that:
p(x)=-4/3x -7
Now, where p(x)=g(x), x=-6.
p(-6)=-4/3 * (-6) -7
p(-6)=24/3 -7
p(-6)=8-7
p(-6)=1
Therefore:
p(x) and g(x) meet at (-6, 1) and the solution to p(x)=g(x) is x=-6.
Answer:
x = 5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the Mid-segment theorem of a triangle, we would have the following:
EF = 2(AB)
AB = 7
EF = 2x + 3
Plug in the values
2x + 3 = 2(7)
Solve for x
2x + 3 = 14
Subtract 3 from each side
2x + 3 - 3 = 14 - 3
2x = 11
2x/2 = 11/2
x = 5.5
Answer:
The slope of new figure A'B'C' = -1.2
A'B' = 3p units
A'C' = 3q units
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of each of the corresponding length of dilated figures (new image) = scale factor multiplied by the corresponding length in original figure.
scale factor = 3
Length of AB = p units
the length of AC = qunits
the length of BC = runits
A'B' = 3p units
A'C' = 3q units
B'C' = 3r units
slope of new figure = slope of previous figure
The slope remains the same = -1.2
