Answer:
<u>The correct answer is A. 12 minutes.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for y, when x = 12, as follows:
y = 175 - 15x
y = 175 - 15 * 12
y = 175 - 180
y = - 5
This result means that after 12 minutes the fish tank would be completely drained and if it's needed 5 additional gallons of water could also be drained. It's not necessary to continue making more calculation with the the other options given because this is the right answer.
<u>The correct answer is A. 12 minutes.</u>
<span>If tickets for the upper deck are 75% of the cost of tickets for the lower deck and lower deck tickets are $42, then tickets for the upper deck $31.50 each. Therefore the answer cannot be A or C, because both of those options misstate the cost of the upper deck ticket. The answer also cannot be D, because it expresses the inequality when the combined number of tickets is greater than $800, which is not what was asked for.
The correct answer is B. 42x + 31.5y ≤ $800. This gives the correct price for upper deck tickets and expresses the correct inequality.</span>
D is correct. f(-2) the number in the bracket is an input so..
whenever you see an X in the function replace it with -2
f(-2)=2*3^-2
3^-2 is 1/9
1/9 * 2 is simply 2/9
so D is correct
Slope: 1.5
y-intercept: -2
Explanation:
The slope is the number attached to 'x' in the equation. In this case, 1.5 would be the slope because it's attached to x.
The y-intercept is the constant the number not attached to any variables. In this case, -2 is all by itself.
Hope that helps!
