Answer:
a. IT = 9.75 * X
b. GT = 4500 + 4.25 * X
c. G = 9.75 * X - 4500 - 4.25 * X
Step-by-step explanation:
With the data of the statement we can get a function. Let X be the number of pounds sold.
to. Monthly income
IT = 9.75 * X
b. Monthly expenses
GT = 4500 + 4.25 * X
c. Monthly Earnings (Monthly Income - Monthly Expenses)
G = 9.75 * X - (4500 + 4.25 * X)
G = 9.75 * X - 4500 - 4.25 * X
Hehe, I thought I'd get this one wrong, but x=10. Remember, that a straight angle must add up to 180 degrees. So I added all the angles; (3x+94)+(x+36)+(2x-4)=180. I took away the parentheses having 3x+94+x+36+2x-4=180. Remember from Algebra 1, to simplify terms, we add the polynomials. 94+36-4=126. 3x+x+2x= 6x. Our simplified equation is 120+6x=180. Now we can answer. 180-120=60. 60=6x. So therefore, for all x, x equals 10.
Perhaps the easiest way to find the midpoint between two given points is to average their coordinates: add them up and divide by 2.
A) The midpoint C' of AB is
.. (A +B)/2 = ((0, 0) +(m, n))/2 = ((0 +m)/2, (0 +n)/2) = (m/2, n/2) = C'
The midpoint B' is
.. (A +C)/2 = ((0, 0) +(p, 0))/2 = (p/2, 0) = B'
The midpoint A' is
.. (B +C)/2 = ((m, n) +(p, 0))/2 = ((m+p)/2, n/2) = A'
B) The slope of the line between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by
.. slope = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
Using the values for A and A', we have
.. slope = (n/2 -0)/((m+p)/2 -0) = n/(m+p)
C) We know the line goes through A = (0, 0), so we can write the point-slope form of the equation for AA' as
.. y -0 = (n/(m+p))*(x -0)
.. y = n*x/(m+p)
D) To show the point lies on the line, we can substitute its coordinates for x and y and see if we get something that looks true.
.. (x, y) = ((m+p)/3, n/3)
Putting these into our equation, we have
.. n/3 = n*((m+p)/3)/(m+p)
The expression on the right has factors of (m+p) that cancel*, so we end up with
.. n/3 = n/3 . . . . . . . true for any n
_____
* The only constraint is that (m+p) ≠ 0. Since m and p are both in the first quadrant, their sum must be non-zero and this constraint is satisfied.
The purpose of the exercise is to show that all three medians of a triangle intersect in a single point.
In decimal form that would be 36.052
