Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
So we have the equation:
To change into the slope-intercept form, we need to isolate the y-variable. Thus, subtract 2x from both sides:
The left side cancels:
Now, divide both sides by 3. The left side cancels:
The slope-intercept form is:
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Thus, the slope is -2/3 and the y-intercept is 490.
2)
So, since we already know the y-intercept is 490, plot a point at (0,490).
The slope is too small to use. Thus, multiply the fraction by 100. It is now (-200/300). This means that we move <em>down</em> 200 for every 300 (recall that the slope means rise over run. Thus, we move down 200 for every 300 to the right). Thus, another possible point would be (0+300,490-200) or (300,290). Plot that. Then, connect them.
3)
To write in in function notation, simply substitute the y-variable for the function notation. Our independent variable here is x so we'll use that.
This means that for every x sandwiches made, there is f(x) wraps made for the total sum to be $1,470.
For example, if 105 sandwiches were made, then f(105)=-2/3(105)+490=420 wraps were made for the total profit to be $1,470.
4)
Please refer to the attached graph.
5)
First, since the total profit has now increased, the graph above and to the right of the old graph. This is because Sal needs to sell more sandwiches and wraps. Likewise, because of this, the x- and y-intercepts will also be different. Nevertheless, if converted into the slope-intercept equation, the slope will remain the same.
From my own solution, my answer is closest to D<span>. 1951 yd; 27°

In it I divided the big triangle into two small right triangles.
I solved for the common leg of the right triangles by using sin theta formula. sin </span>θ = opposite / hypotenuse
<span>
sin 35</span>° = opposite / 1538 yd
<span>sin 35</span>° * 1538 yd = opposite
<span>882.16 yd = opposite
From there, I used the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the missing side which is part of the 3,000 yd measure.
I got the measure of 1,259.86 yards. The remaining measure of 1,740.14 is the side of the other right triangle.
Still using Pythagorean Theorem, I used the measurement of the known side of the 2nd right triangle to solve for its hypotenuse which was 1,950.97 or 1,951 yards.
With regards to the angle of depression, I used this formula:
tan(y) = opposite / adjacent
tan(y) = 1538 yd / 3000 yd
tan(y) = 0.513
y = 0.513/tan
y = 27.14</span>°<span>

Answer:
Hello!
After reviewing the problem you have provided I have come up with the correct solution:
x= 9
Step-by-step explanation:
To come up with this solution you have to first realize that the smaller triangle is a proportionally scaled down version of the entire larger triangle! (I will show what I mean in a linked picture)
So after we have realized that the smaller triangle is a scaled down version of the larger one, we can then create a formula or ratio to calculate the value of the missing side of the larger triangle (being x+6=??).
To create the formula/ratio I divided 10inches by 4inches. Thus the larger triangle is 2.5 times larger than the smaller one.
I then use this ratio to figure out the missing length of the larger triangle by doing:
6inches x 2.5 = 15inches.
I then inputed the 15inches into the formula of the missing side:
x+6=15
Subtracted 6 from both sides to simplify, and came up with the solution!
x=9
Let me know if this helps!
