Answer:

slope = 3, y- intercept = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 6 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3 and y- intercept = - 6

A remote control car races down the street at 26 miles per hour. Two hours later a second remote control car races straight down

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Car 1:

$Speed = 26mph$

$Time = h$

Car 2:

$Speed = 52mph$

$Time = h - 2$ --- i.e. 2 hours after car 1

Required

Determine the time car 1 will meet car 2

To do this, we calculate the distance of both cars using:

$Distance = Speed * Time$

For Car 1:

$Distance = 26 * h$

$Distance = 26h$

For Car 2:

$x^{2} Distance = 52 * (h - 2)$

Open bracket

$Distance = 52h - 104$

When car 2 meets up with car 1, they are at the same distance.

So:

$26h = 52h - 104$

Collect Like Terms

$26h - 52h = -104$

$-26h = -104$

Solve for h

$h = \frac{-104}{-26}$

$h = 4$

<em>Car 2 will catch car 1; 4 hours from the start</em>

Which of the following best describes the end behavior of y=x^2 -bx +c as x approaches either positive or negative infinity?

Tcecarenko [31]

As x approaches either positive or negative infinity, y will approach positive infinity.
This is because x^2 will grow large much quicker than b*x, so it has more importance. So when considering the limit, we can imagine that the equation looks like this:
y = x^2
This equation will go to infinity for x approaching both negative and positive infinity.

A typical middle-income household in 1980 earned $34,757. A similar household in 2009 earned $38,550. What was the relative incr

S_A_V [24]

Given conditions are :

In 1980's, a typical middle-income household earned= $34,757

In 2009, a similar middle-income household earned= $38,550

And we have to find relative increase in income for these households from 1980 to 2009.

So first we will find the total increase in amounts.

$38550-34757=3793$

Relative increase = $\frac{3793}{34757}*100$

= 10.91% or rounding it off we get approx 11%.

Hence, the answer is 11%.

Answer:

C) The cost increases $2.50 for every additional pair of shoes rented.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice a pattern. When you buy a new pair of shoes, the total gets increased by $2.50 depending on how many pairs of shoes you buy. For example, starting with 1 pair of shoes, it costs $2.50, but when you buy another pair, the cost is $2.50+$2.50=2*$2.50=$5.00, and so on...

Therefore, the correct choice is C
