Answer: the slope is 5/3 and the y-intercept is (0,5)
Using a linear function, we have that:
a) The fixed cost is of $10.
b) The equation is: C = 10 + 12d.
c) The cost of an 18 km trip is $226.
d) The distance traveled is of 20 km.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
For this problem, the slope is of m = 12. When d = 5, C(d) = 70, hence we find the fixed cost as follows:
C(d) = 12d + b
70 = 60 + b
b = 10.
Hence the equation is:
C(d) = 12d + 10.
For a trip of 18 km, d = 18, hence the cost is:
C(12) = 12 x 18 + 10 = $226.
When the cost is of $250, the distance is found as follows:
250 = 12d + 10
12d = 240
d = 240/12
d = 20 km.

#SPJ1
Answer: i believe the answer is B
Step-by-step explanation: because if p to q is true, then that means p and q are both true!
First, simplify each one.
9.98 x 10^6 = 9980000
7.3 x 10^7 = 73000000
Next, subtract the freight from the aircraft
73000000 - 9980000 = 63020000
Round the decimal point to the first significant digit, and place the amount of place values the decimal point moved to the left as a power sign, over 10.
63020000 = 6.302 x 10^7
6.302 x 10^7 is your answer
hope this helps
