Answer: 1)
2) 55 points
Step-by-step explanation:
1) A= 8w + 18, w=1.25
A = 8(1.25) + 18
A = 10 + 18
A = 28ft^2
2) 25 points to start with, additional 5 points per magazine they sell, m = number of magazines they sell
total points = 25 + 5m
How many if they sell 6?
total = 25 + 5(6)
= 25 + 30
total = 55
Answer: y = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that y varies directly with x
That is, y∝x
Convert y∝x to a full equation by introducing a constant k to the right hand side.
Therefore, y = kx
Given that y = 10 and x = 20
Substitute y and x in the equation above. We have;
10 = k(20)
10 = 20k
20k = 10
k = 10/20
k = 0.5
Since k = 0.5, the equation y = kx becomes y = 0.5x
Now, to find y if x = 15, substitute x in equation y = 0.5x
Therefore, y = 0.5(15)
y = 7.5
