Since its telling you that x is the number of years and the question is "How much does the cost of milk increase EVERY YEAR" then you can conclude that the cost is increasing by 0.25 each year

Answer:

Option B is correct

$0.25 does the cost of milk increase every year

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is given by:

y = mx+b       .....[1]

where, m is the rate and b is the initial value

Given the function:

y = 0.25x+3.5

where,

y represents the cost of a gallon of milk.

and

x represents the number of years.

We have to find how much does the cost of milk increase every year.

On comparing given function with [1] we have;

m = 0.25 and b = 3.5

Initially cost of milk = $3.5

and

cost of milk increase every year = $0.25

Therefore, $0.25 does the cost of milk increase every year

Evaluate the expression 5k2 - 7k when k = 3
VikaD [51]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you have to solve by plugging in the value to the "k" variable and solve.

Solve:

5(3)^2 - 7(3)

3^2 = 9

5(9) - 7(3)

45 - 7(3)

45 - 21 = 24

Your final answer would be 24.

Building a is 160160 feet shorter than building
Serjik [45]
I assume the heights are 160 ft and 1480 ft.

The two heights are unknown, so we will use variable h to help solve the problem.
The shorter building, building A, has height h.
Since building A is shorter by 160 ft, then building B is taller by 160 ft, so the height of building B is h + 160.

Now we add our two heights to find the total height.

h + h + 160 is the total height.
We can write it as 2h + 160

We are told the total height is 1480 ft, so we let 2h + 160 equal 1480, and we have an equation.

2h + 160 = 1480

Subtract 160 from both sides

2h = 1320

Divide both sides by 2

h = 660

h + 160 = 820

Building A measures 660 ft.
building B measures 820 ft.

Molly must drive across a bridge over a river eight times each week. Because the bridge is narrow and traffic is congested, Moll
oee [108]

Based on Molly's willingness to pay for the 8th trip, and the number of trips she can make over the bridge, her willingness to pay for the bridge repair would be<u> $1.00.</u>

<h3>What is Molly's willingness to pay for taxes to fix the bridge?</h3><h3 />

Molly's willingness to pay for trips is equal to the total consumer surplus she gets.

This means that her consumer surplus is $0.50.

With the bridge fixed, she can make 2 more trips than before because she can make 10 trips.

Her willingnesss to pay for the taxes will therefore be equal to her willingness to pay for the remaining trips:

= 0.50 x 2

= $1.00

"let v = r 2 with the usual addition and scalar multiplication defined by k(u1, u2) = (ku1, 0). determine which of the five axio
expeople1 [14]
Let \mathbf u\in\mathbb R^2, where

\mathbf u=(u_1,u_2)

and let k\in\mathbb R be any real constant.

Given this definition of scalar multiplication, we can see right away that there is no identity element e such that

e\mathbf u=\mathbf u

because

e\mathbf u=e(u_1,u_2)=(eu_1,0)\neq(u_1,u_2)=\mathbf u

Which statements best describe the dot plot or box plot? Check all that apply
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

<h2>The box plot is the only display that can be used to show the variability of the data.</h2><h2>The median appears clearly on the box plot at the line within the box: 10.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

When we want to represent variability, we use a box plot instead of a dot plot, because the box plot allow us to observe the range of the data set, that is, the minium and the maximum value.

Remember that variability is about the spread of the dataset, and the range is a measure that can give a pretty good idea of it, shown by a box plot.

Therefore, the last hoice is correct.

On the other hand, according to the dot plot, the median is 10, because there are 13 total values, where the central value is 10.

Therefore, the second choice is correct.
