Answer:

For the length of time less than 6 hours cost less to hire Hanks movers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the time in hours

y ----> the total cost in dollars

we know that

<em>Acme movers</em>

y=30x+150 ----> equation A

<em>Hanks movers</em>

y=55x ----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B and solve for x

55x=30x+150

55x-30x=150

25x=150

x=6\ hours

That means-----> For x= 6 hours The cost in both companies is the same

<u><em>Verify</em></u>

For x=6 hours

<em>Acme movers</em>

y=30(6)+150=\$330

<em>Hanks movers</em>

y=55(6)=\$330

If x < 6 hours ----> It cost less to hire Hanks movers

If x > 6 hours ----> It cost less to hire Acme movers

therefore

For the length of time less than 6 hours cost less to hire Hanks movers

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the wine represented by the equation y=-2/5x+4/5?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - \frac{2}{5} x + \frac{4}{5} ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{2}{5}

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

m = - \frac{2}{5} ← is slope of parallel line

1. What is the slope-intercept for the cost of a sub at Fred’s Sub shop?
icang [17]

Answer:the answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in 1 in replace of X. Then you multiply the number that was originally next to X by 1 and then if it’s added to another number for an example 5x+2 turns into 5(1)+2 next 5 multiplied by 1 is 5. 5+2 =7. It cannot be 7 because your red line doesn’t extend out that far.
