Answer:

Library 2 charges more for each book loaned.
Library 1 has a cheaper subscription fee.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the table, we can write the equation for the cost of borrowing from Library 2 using the two-point form of the equation of a line:

y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

for (x1, y1) = (2, 15.50) and (x2, y2) = (8, 26) this equation becomes ...

y = (26 -15.50)/(8 -2)(x -2) +15.50 . . . . . fill in the values

y = (10.50/6)(x -2) +15.50 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify a bit

y = 1.75x -3.50 +15.50 . . . . . . simplify more

In the above, we have x = number of books; y = cost. We can use "n" and "C" for those, respectively, as in the equation for Library 1. Then the monthly cost for Library 2 is ...

C = 12 + 1.75n . . . . . . . arranged to the same form as for Library 1

_____

Now, we can answer the questions.

Library 2 charges more for each book loaned. (1.75 vs 1.50 for Library 1)

Library 1 has a cheaper subscription fee. (10 vs 12 for Library 2)

_____

The numbers in the cost equations are ...

C = (subscription fee) + (cost per book loaned)·n

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line that satisfies the given set slope of 4/5, passes through (10,-30

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

y + 30 = 4/5(x - 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the slope, 4/5, and point (10, -30):

We can plug these values into the point-slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Let (x1, y1) = (10, -30)

and m = 4/5

y - (-30) = 4/5(x - 10)

y + 30 = 4/5(x - 10)

Therefore, the point-slope form is y + 30 = 4/5(x - 10)

Help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

pochemuha

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the easiest way to go about this is to choose on of the answers and fill it in to see if it's correct. Since you only have 4 possible answers, there's no need to actually solve this.

In the question it already tells us that x does not equal 0, so that answer is automatically not correct. Now your down to three possible answers.

Start with -3. First, fill in the x with -3 for what the equation is supposed to equal. That gives you 3/-3. Simplified, that is -1. Now put -3 in for the x in the equation. That gives you 3/2(-3) + 1/2. After running that through your calculator or solving it, you end up with 0. So -3 is not your answer.

Next we'll try the 2. Do as we did last time, and fill in the x on the answer part of the equation. You now have 3/2. That doesn't simplify so it stays as is. Now for the equation. That makes it 3/2(2) +1/2. Put that in your calculator or solve, and you get 5/4. 5/4 does not equal 3/2 so 2 is not your answer.

That leaves 3. You can go ahead and run through the steps above using 3 if you want to double check, but since it's the only answer left, there isn't really a need to.

Hope this helps :)

Determine whether each of these functions is O(x^2 ).

otez555 [7]

Answer:

(a) no
(b) yes
(c) no
(d) no

Step-by-step explanation:

"Of the order x^2" means the dominant behavior matches that of x^2 as x gets large. For polynomial functions, the dominant behavior is that of the highest-degree term.

For other functions, the dominant behavior will typically be governed in some other way. Here, the rate of growth of the x·log(x) function is determined by log(x), which has decreasing slope as x increases.

Only answer selection B has a highest-degree term of x^2, so only that one exhibits O(x^2) behavior.
