Make sure you add the amount that is supposed to be deducted when you attempt to solve your problems, I'm a visual learner and I usually find it best to write everything out to see where to go next. <3 do well my dear</span>
The initial fee of $50 is essentially the y intercept because this is the value when x = 0 (x is the number of labor-hours). So b = 50.
The slope is m = 30 because each increase of 1 hour leads to the cost bumping up by 30 dollars. In other words, slope = rise/run = (change in cost)/(change in hours) = 30/1
So we plug m = 30 and b = 50 into the y = mx+b formula to get y = 30x+50
Replace y with f(x) to get f(x) = 30x+50
The linear function for the cost is f(x) = 30x+50
Note: Some books may use other letters (instead of x and f(x)), but the idea is still the same
Once you know the cost function, you replace x with 4.5 to find the amount it will cost to have a painter work for 4.5 hours.
f(x) = 30x+50
f(4.5) = 30*4.5+50
f(4.5) = 135+50
f(4.5) = 185
It will cost 185 dollars to have the painter work for 4.5 hours
Answer: $18
Explanation: 6x3
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
let a be the number of tennis balls.
let b be the number of tennis rackets.
We write determine the ratio of balls to rackets by dividing the number of balls by the number of rackets:

For every one ball, there 5 thirds of a racket.
We plot this function on a graph to visualize our model;
Your choice of answer D is correct.
_____
When the number of days is zero, the height is 130 inches. This eliminates choices B and C. Evaluating the expression for n=13 gives
... 130 + 13×13 = 130 + 169 = 299 . . . . . corresponding to answer D.
