Substitute 2 into x in the equation so f(x)= 5x2 -12 = -2 so it’s C = -2
Let x=small rugs and y=medium rugs. It takes 8 hours to dye a small rug, so you would write 8x. It takes 12 hours to dye a small rug, so you would write 12y. Those two would need to be added together. The dyer needs to dye at least 22 rugs in 240 hours, so you would need a less than or = to sign.
I'm not sure which choice has the line beneath, indicating that the sign is a "less than or equal to" sign, but the answer is gonna be either C or D.
8x+12y≤240, or 12y+8x<span>≤240</span>
Options:
- 30; it represents the hourly wage for the worker
- 30; it represents the cost for insurance
- 10; it represents the hourly wage for the worker
- 10; it represents the cost for insurance
The answer is the third option "10; it represents the hourly wage for the worker." 10 would be the slope and if x represents hours then 10 would represent the amount of money the worker would get every hour.
Hope this helps!
