Oh! I answered this question last week! Don't know if it was the same exact one, but whatever. So first cut the number of pages in Kate's report in half, then add 5 to that. So, (14÷2)+5
C = 1.6b
c + b = 442
1.6b + b = 442
2.6b = 442
b = 442 / 2.6
b = 170 <== Boston
c = 1.6b
c = 1.6(170)
c = 272 <== Colorado Springs
Answer:
The initial value in the word problem is the output value when input value is set to zero.
Step-by-step explanation:
- In the question, it is given that a problem uses a linear function.
- It is required to explain how to interpret the initial value in a word problem.
- In order to find the initial value in a world problem, find the output value when input value is set to zero.
- If the initial value is marked as b for a linear function f(x), find it as follow,
Since the scale factor is smaller than one (the original), the resulting image is smaller than the original.
Hope this helped, and feel free to ask more questions if needed(:
