Answer:
$13.50
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we got to multiply $18 by 25% or .25
$18 x .25 = $4.50
Lastly, we just subtract $4.50 from $18.
$18 - $4.50 = $13.50
Uhmmmm is there a picture of the problem i’m confused
Answer:
a) 1/2; reduction
b) 5/4; enlargement
Step-by-step explanation:
In each case, the scale factor is CP'/CP. When it is more than 1, the dilation is an enlargement.
Even before you run the numbers, you can tell if it is an enlargement or not. If the dilated figure is larger, P is closer to C than is P'. If P' is closer to C, then it is a reduction.
a) CP'/CP = (4-2)/4 = 2/4 = 1/2 . . . . a reduction
__
b) CP'/CP = 25/20 = 5/4 . . . . an enlargement
ANSWER:
a) y = 15x + 75
b) 50 weeks
EXPLANATION:
P A R T A
2 weeks, 105 dollars --> (2, 105)
5 weeks, 150 dollars --> (5, 150)
<u />
<u>if we use slope intercept form (y=mx+b), we must:</u>
1) find the slope
y2 - y1 -->> 150 - 105 = 45
x2 - x1 -->> 5 - 2 = 3
45/3 = 15
2) find the y intercept
y = 15x + b -->> 150 = 15 (5) + b -->> 150 = 75 + b -->> 75 = b
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
P A R T B
y = 15x + 75 (substitute the y with 825 because that is the goal)
825 = 15x + 75 (solve normally)
750 = 15x
50 = x
