Explanation:

To determine the slope and y-intercept of the equation, let us plot the coordinates in the slope-intercept form.

Analyzing the graph, some of the points that are on the straight line is (1,0),(3,5), (9,20)

Let us consider the points (1,0),(3,5) to determine the slope.

\begin{aligned}m &=\frac{5-0}{3-1} \\&=\frac{5}{2} \\&=2.5\end{aligned}

Since, the profit is earned in thousands of dollars, m = 2.5 or m = 2500

Thus, slope = 2500

To determine the y- intercept, let us substitute any one of the coordinate from the graph.

Thus, let us substitute (1,0) in the equation y=mx+b to determine the y-intercept.

0=2500(1)+b\\

Simplifying, we have,

b=-2500

Hence, the line of best fit equation is y=2500x-2500

The system crosses at the point (3, 4). How many solutions will the system have?
vagabundo [1.1K]
For this case suppose that we have a linear system of equations of the form:
 ax + by = c
 dx + ey = f
 The solution of the system is an ordered pair of the form:
 (x, y)
 That is, both lines intersect at a point.
 The point of intersection in this case is:
 (3, 4)
 Therefore, the system has one solution.

X and y vary inversely and x=50 when y=5 find y when x=10 what is k?
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Part A)

1)  k=250

2) y=25

Part B)

1)  k=7

2) y=84

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) x and y vary inversely and x=50 when y=5 find y when x=10 what is k?

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form y*x=k or y=k/x

step 1

<u>Find the value of k</u>

x=50 when y=5

substitute the values

y*x=k ------> 5*50=k -----> k=250

The equation is equal to

y*x=250  or y=250/x

step 2

<u>Find y when x=10</u>

substitute the value of x in the equation and solve for y

y*(10)=250

y=250/10=25

Part B) x and y vary directly and x=6 when y=42 find k what is y when x=12

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

step 1

<u>Find the value of k</u>

x=6 when y=42

substitute the values

y/x=k ------> 42/6=k -----> k=7

The equation is equal to

y/x=7  or  y=7x

step 2

<u>Find y when x=12</u>

substitute the value of x in the equation and solve for y

y=7(12)=84
