Answer:

Fixed rate is $60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider per student charge be 'x'.

Let us consider fixed rate be 'b'

Given:

I rent a gym for $150 for 30 students.

So we can say that;

Total amount is equal to sum of number of students multiplied by per student charge and fixed rate.

framing in equation form we get;

30x+b=150 \ \ \ \ equation \ 1

Also Given:

another time I rent the gym for $270 for 70 students.

So we can say that;

Total amount is equal to sum of number of students multiplied by per student charge and fixed rate.

framing in equation form we get;

70x+b=270 \ \ \ \ equation \ 2

Now we will subtract equation 1 from equation 2 we get;

70x+b-(30x+b)=270-150\\\\70x+b-30x-b=120\\\\40x=120

Dividing both side by 40 we get;

\frac{40x}{40}=\frac{120}{40}\\\\x=\$3

Now we will substitute the value of x in equation 1 we get;

30x+b=150\\\\30\times3+b=150\\\\90+b=150\\\\b=150-90 =\$60

So we can say that the equation can be written as;

y =3x+60

Hence we can say that fixed rate is $60 and per student charge is $3.

Answer:

The fixed rate for the gym is $60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the price to rent a gym is $150 for 30 students.

And another rent of the gym is $270 for 70 students

Let x be the number of student and y be the amount of the gym.

We will write equation of the line representing total cost in slope-intercept form of equation.

y=mx+b

let us find the slope

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m=\frac{270-150}{70-30}\\\\m=\frac{120}{40}\\\\m=3

Now, we will find y-intercept. Plug m=3 and coordinates of point (30,150) in slope-intercept form of equation.

(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)\\y-150=3(x-30)\\y-150=3x-90\\y=3x-90+150\\y=3x+60

Since y-intercept represents the initial value. Therefore, the fixed rate for the gym is $60.

No, a teaspoon is too small to measure the capacity of a milk carton. You would use a quart to measure the capacity of a gallon.

Hope this helps :)

How do I solve for x??
Cloud [144]

The two angles given are vertical angles which mean they are the same.

x +40 = 60

Subtract 40 from both sides:

x = 20

Help answering this question please
IrinaK [193]
The transformation from 1 to 2 is a translation, as the shape is moved from one point to another with no rotation, reflection, or change in size.

The transformation from 2 to 3 is a reflection, as the shape is now upside down. It is still the same distance from the y-axis.

The answer is D. translation, then reflection.
