.m.?
A) y = 3x + 50; 90 cars
B) y = 4x + 50; 75 cars
C) y = x + 50; 100 cars
D) y = 3x - 50; 120 cars

The correct answer is Choice A.

You can see from the graph that the y-intercept is 50 because it cross on the left at 50.

To find the slope, we can use the following two points (0, 50) and (20, 110). This will give a slope of 3.

Put the 50 and 3 together and you will have the equation:
y = 3x + 50

Answer:

y = 3x + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the y-intercept (0, 50) and an estimated point (40, 170) into the slope formula and simplify.

m =  

y2 - y1

x2 - x1

m =  

170 - 50

40 - 0

m = 3

Substitute slope and y-intercept into slope- intercept form.

y = mx + b

y = 3x + 50

The slope represents the change in the number of cars in the parking garage per minute, which is 3.  

To find the number of cars in the parking garage at 8:30 a.m., substitute 30 into the equation for x (number of minutes after 8:00 a.m.) and simplify:  

y = 30(3) + 50 = 140

To find the number of cars in the parking garage at 9:00 a.m., substitute 60 into the equation for x (number of minutes after 8:00 a.m.) and simplify:  

y = 60(3) + 50 = 230

Find the difference: 230 - 140 = 90 cars

Which of the following best describes the solution to the equation below?
kozerog [31]
D)One solution. b=5
Distribute 2 times b plus 2 times 3
2b+6
2b+6+2b=26
Combine like terms 4b+6=26
Subtract 6 from both sides
4b=20
Divide both sides by 4
b=5

Check by substituting 5 for b
2 (5+3)+2(5)=26
2(8) + 2(5)=26
16+10=26
26=26

If y=m^4=n^3 and y is greater than 1, then mn=
enot [183]
The useful property in multiplication is that 1 raised to any number will always be equal to 1. Thus, if y is equal to 1, m and n are also equal to 1. But if y is greater than 1, then m and n would also, consequently, be greater than 1 but less than y. This is because the base number of an exponent must be less in value than the answer. However, if m and n are multiplied, then the product would be greater than 1 but still less than y. 

Let's take an example to prove this point.

Suppose y=5, then
m = ⁴√5 = 1.49
n = ∛5 = 1.7

Then, m×n = 2.5 which is less than y but greater than 1
