Answer: choice C, y = 0.014x+0.85

==============================

Explanation:

Each column of the table represents an (x,y) pair of values

x = number of pages

y = cost

If we look at the first two columns, we see the two points (50,1.55) and (100,2.25). The x value is listed first. Let's compute the slope of the line through these two points

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (2.25-1.55)/(100-50)

m = 0.7/50

m = 0.014

So far, we see the answer is between A,B or C as they have the slope of 0.014

Use this slope value, and one of the points -- say (x,y) = (50,1.55) -- to find the y intercept b

y = mx+b

y = 0.014x+b .... plug in the slope found earlier

1.55 = 0.014*50+b ... plug in the point (x,y) = (50,1.55)

1.55 = 0.7+b

1.55-0.7 = 0.7+b-0.7 ... subtract 0.7 from both sides

0.85 = b

b = 0.85

With m = 0.014 as the slope and b = 0.85 as the y intercept, we can say that y = mx+b turns into y = 0.014x+0.85. That narrows the answer down to choice C.

yarga [219]
2(x - 16) + 12 = 30
2x - 32 + 12 = 30
2x - 20 = 30
2x = 30 + 20
2x = 50
x = 50/2
x = 25 <=== the temp was 25 at midnight

Solve for x
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

x=130, x=-77.5, x=1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1st equation:

1/5x + 24 = 50

1/5x = 26

x = 26(5)

x = 130

2nd equation:

0.4x + 18=-13

0.4x = -31

x=-77.5

3rd equation:

3x - 5/6 = 1/6

3x = 1

x=1/3
