Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
if you slightly change the equation to better fit standard form (without actually changing its meaning) you get
y = 0x + 5
which means the slope is 0
Also, a shortcut:
<h2><u>
Horizontal lines always have a 0 slope while vertical lines have an undefined slope</u></h2>
The rigth equation to anticipate the profit after t years is p(t) = 10,000 (1.075)^t
So, given that both store A and store B follow the same equations but t is different for them, you can right:
Store A: pA (t) 10,000 (1.075)^t
Store B: pB(t'): 10,000 (1.075)^t'
=> pA(t) / pB(t') = 1.075^t / 1.075^t'
=> pA(t) / pB(t') = 1.075 ^ (t - t')
And t - t' = 0.5 years
=> pA(t) / pB(t') = 1.075 ^ (0.5) = 1.0368
or pB(t') / pA(t) = 1.075^(-0.5) = 0.964
=> pB(t') ≈ 0.96 * pA(t)
Which means that the profit of the store B is about 96% the profit of store A at any time after both stores have opened.
Answer:
Less
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation: Just like any of your two-step equations,
in this inequality, start by isolating the x term which in this
case is -3x by subtracting 5 from both sides.
That leaves you with -3x < -24.
To get x by itself, divide both sides by -3 but watch out.
When you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a
negative number, you must switch the direction of the inequality sign.
So we have x < 8 and put your final answer in
set notation and it look like this → {x: x < 8}.
3+6x+3x+ 6 = 180
9x + 9 = 180
9x = 171
x = 19
