Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

"z varies jointly as x and y" can be expressed algebraically as z = kxy, where k is the constant of proportionality.

Given:  z = 24 when x = 3 and y = 4, then 24 = k(3)(4), or 24 = 12k.

The const. of prop. must then be k = 2.

So now we have the specific relationship z = 2xy.

If x = 5 and y = 6, then z = 2(5)(6) = 60.

andre [41]

100 = 40 + 3x

Subtract 40 from each side

60 = 3x

Divide each side by 3

20 = x

The highest price of a sweatshirt can be $20

100 = 40 + 3(20)

rewona [7]
The equation of a line that passes throug the point (x1,y1) and has  a sloppe of m is
y-y1=m(x-x1)

the slope of paralell lines ar the same

y=3x+2
y=mx+b
m=slope
m=3

a point is (-2,0)
slope is 3

y-0=3(x-(-2))
y=3(x+2)
y=3x+6
the equation is y=3x+6
