The slope (m) represents the cost per person.
Answer:
c.) 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a part-to-whole relationship here.
2 customers : 8 minutes= ? customers : 30 minutes
<em>or...</em>
2/8=x/30
Cross multiply:
8x=60
Divided both sides by 8:
x=60/8=7.5

The <em>correct answer</em> is:
6 balloons.
Explanation:
Let x represent the number of balloons purchased.
We will call the function for Clowns R Fun c(x):
c(x) = 1.25x+6
We will call the function for Singing Balloons s(x):
s(x) = 1.95x+2
We want the amount for Clowns R Fun, c(x) to be less:
c(x) < s(x)
1.25x+6 < 1.95x+2
Subtract 1.25x from each side:
1.25x+6-1.25x < 1.95x+2-1.25x
6 < 0.7x+2
Subtract 2 from each side:
6-2 < 0.7x+2-2
4 < 0.7x
Divide each side by 0.7:
4/0.7 < 0.7x/0.7
5.7 < x
x > 5.7
She must buy more than 5.7 balloons; the next integer up is 6. She must buy 6 or more balloons.
Answer:
28 ft squared
Step-by-step explanation:
The 4 sides of a square are equal in length, so if the perimeter is 20ft that means each side would have to be 5ft, (20/4 = 5). If you increase the length by 2ft, one of the sides would now become 7ft (5+2 = 7). If you decrease the length of the other side by 1ft, the length would now be 4ft (5-1=4). Now to find the area, all you have to do is length * width. So you would do 7ft*4ft which is 28ft squared.
