Answer:

<h2>Non-proportional.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation, the elevator started to move 10 seconds after you stepped on, that means, for 10 seconds, the elevator didn't move at any rate, so the slope of the line that describes this interval is zero, horizontal.

After those 10 seconds, the elevator started to move with a rate of 8 feet per seconds.

So, as you can see, there are two different ratios in the same problem, or in the same graph, that means, this situation is represented by a piecewise function, because there are two differente behaviours with different ratios, that makes the situation non-propotional.

If you graph this problem, there would be an horizontal line at the beginning at y=0 and then a proportional line after x=10, that change makes the situation non-proportional.

Nonproportional;The graph of this situation will extend from (0, 0) to (10, 0) on the x-axis before rising.

Sweetums finds that the cost of making a certain candy bar .15 per bar and that the fixed rate is 600 per week if each bar sells
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

We know that:

Profit = Revenue - Cost

Let us say x number of candies are made per week.

Finding Cost per week:

Cost of making 1 bar = 0.15

Cost of making x bars = 0.15x

Fixed rate of making candies per week = 600

Total cost of making x candies per week = 600 + 0.15x

Now let us find Revenue:

Selling price of each bar = 1.50

Selling price of x bars = 1.50x

Now we have to find profit,

Profit = Revenue - Cost

In order to have profit Revenue - Cost >0

So plugging values of revenue and cost to get number of candies,

1.50x-(0.15x+600)>0

1.50x-0.15x-600>0

1.35x-600>0

1.35x>600

x>444.44

Rounding off

x>444

Answer: The company must sell greater than 444 candies in order to make profit.

What is the value of c such that x^2+14x+c is a perfect-square trinomial?
polet [3.4K]

Answer: 49

Step-by-step explanation:

a=1 ,b=14, c=?

b^2-4ac =0

(14)^2-4(1)(c)=0

196-4c=0

196=4c

c=49

Check:

(x)^2+2(x)(7)+(7)^2

x^2+14x+49

(x+7)^2
