The manager of a restaurant found that the cost to produce 200 cups of coffee is ​$65.00 ​, while the cost to produce 250 cups i

s ​$77.50 . Assume the relationship between the cost y to produce x cups of coffee is linear. a. Write a linear equation that expresses the​ cost, y, in terms of the number of cups of​ coffee, x. b. How many cups of coffee are produced if the cost of production is ​$135.00 ​?

Answer:

a). y = 0.25x + 15

b). x = 480 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

(a). Let the equation of the linear function passing through a point (x', y') is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

'm' = slope of the line

b = y-intercept

Two points lying on the linear function will be (200, 65) and (250, 77.5).

Slope of the line 'm' = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m = \frac{77.5-65}{250-200}

   = \frac{12.5}{50}

   = 0.25

Therefore, equation of the line passing through (200, 65) and slope 0.25 will be,

y - 65 = 0.25(x - 200)

y - 65 = 0.25x - 50

y = 0.25x + 15

(b). For y = $135 we have to calculate the number of cups of coffee produced.

135 = 0.25x + 15

0.25x = 135 - 15

0.25x = 120

x = 480 cups

Therefore, 480 cups of coffee will be produced.

What additional information can be used to prove ΔDSB ≅ ΔTSR by SAS?
Elden [556K]

Please find the attached file for a proper understanding of the question given here. The diagram in the file attached is the complete accompanying diagram of the question.

As per that diagram, RS\cong SB (which is given)

and we know that \angle DSB\cong \angle RST (vertically opposite angles).

Thus, the only way ΔDSB ≅ ΔTSR by SAS is when DS\cong ST as indicated in the diagram.

Thus, DS\cong ST is the correct answer.
