Grant is a member of a book club. He pays a $10 yearly membership fee and can purchase books through the club for $2.75 each. Hi

s total annual cost is a function of the number of books, b, that he purchases in a year: C(b) = 2.75b + 10 Which statements are true about the variables in the yearly cost function? Check all that apply. A. The number of books purchased is the independent variable. B. The input is the yearly cost. C. The total yearly cost depends on the number of books purchased. D. The number of books purchased is determined by the yearly cost. E. The output is the yearly cost.

Answer: A, C, and E

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the function given:

C(b) = 2.75b + 10

Where:

Independent variable: b (number of books)
Input = b
Output = C = annual cost

Dependent variable = C (depends on b, the independent variable)

So:

A. The number of books purchased is the independent variable. TRUE

B. The input is the yearly cost. (FALSE, the input is the number of books )

C. The total yearly cost depends on the number of books purchased. TRUE

D. The number of books purchased is determined by the yearly cost. FALSE , the yearly cost is determined by the number

of books.

E. The output is the yearly cost.TRUE

Casey bought sandwiches and bags of chips. Each sandwich cost three times asmuch as a bag of chips. She bought 5 sandwiches for

Lerok [7]

Answer:

Casey Bought 6 bags of chips

Step-by-step explanation:

If each sandwich costs 3 times the amount of a bag of chips and the sandwich is 6 dollars, the chips are 2 dollars. Casey bought 5 sandwiches and spent $30 dollars on sandwiches. Since the total was $42 dollars you have $12 dollars left to get your total of $42. 2x6 = 12 so therefore Casey bought 6 bags of chips.

Can anyone solve this for me?? I will give brainliest and 5 stars and thanks

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

When we enlarge or shrink an object, we perform a dilation. A dilation preserves the relationship between sides and the exact angle measure. This means the original and the enlargement are proportional and any missing lengths can be found through a proportion.

A proportion is an equation where two ratios or fractions are equal. The ratios or fractions compare like quantities. For example, we will compare height over length of the original rectangle to an equal ratio of height to length of the enlargement. Since we do not know height of the enlargement, we will use a variable to write:

$\frac{2}{9} =\frac{h}{13.5}$

I can now cross-multiply by multiplying numerator and denominator from each ratio.

$9h=2(23.5)\\19h=27$

I now solve for h by dividing by 9.

$\frac{9h}{9} =\frac{27}{9} \\h= 3$

The new height is 3 cm.

Use Lagrange multipliers to find the maximum and minimum values of

marusya05 [52]

The Lagrangian is

$L(x,y,\lambda)=x+8y+\lambda(x^2+y^2-4)$

It has critical points where the first order derivatives vanish:

$L_x=1+2\lambda x=0\implies\lambda=-\dfrac1{2x}$

$L_y=8+2\lambda y=0\implies\lambda=-\dfrac4y$

$L_\lambda=x^2+y^2-4=0$

From the first two equations we get

$-\dfrac1{2x}=-\dfrac4y\implies y=8x$

Then

$x^2+y^2=65x^2=4\implies x=\pm\dfrac2{\sqrt{65}}\implies y=\pm\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{65}}$

At these critical points, we have

$f\left(\dfrac2{\sqrt{65}},\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{65}}\right)=2\sqrt{65}\approx16.125$ (maximum)

$f\left(-\dfrac2{\sqrt{65}},-\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{65}}\right)=-2\sqrt{65}\approx-16.125$ (minimum)
