The monthly cost (in dollars) of water use is a linear function of the amount of water used (in hundreds of cubic feet, HCF). Th

e cost for using 15 HCF of water is 32.84, and the cost for using 43 HCF is 79.04. What is the cost for using 36 HCF of water?

Answer:

67.49

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of HCF be x.

Let the cost be y.

You are given 2 points of a line: (15, 32.84) and (43, 79.04).

Now we find the equation of the line that passes through those points.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 32.84 = [(79.04 - 32.84)/(43 - 15)](x - 15)

y - 32.84 = (46.2/28)(x - 15)

y - 32.84 = 1.65(x - 15)

y = 1.65x - 24.75 + 32.84

y = 1.65x + 8.09

Now we let x = 36 and solve for y.

y = 1.65(36) + 8.09

y = 67.49

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The answer is C one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

x-y=-14

-y=-x-14  bring x to the other side

y=x+14   divide everything by -1

-x-y=14

-y=x+14  bring x to the other side

y=-x-14  divide everything by -1

qaws [65]

Answer:

The slope is -2 and the y intercept is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x -3

This equation is written in slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is -2 and the y intercept is -3

suppose that a severe virus in impacting a bee colony and the population of bees has a half life of 5 days What percentage of th
BartSMP [9]
So we want to know what percentage of bees would survive a virus after 19 days of decay if the bee population has a half life of 5 days. So every 5 days 50% of bees die. Lets say that N is the number of bees before the virus. So after 5 days is 50% less bees, so 50% of N remains. After another 5 days again, 50% bees die, and 50% out of 50% is 25%. So after 10 days, 25% of bees remain or 25%N or 0.25*N. After another 5 days its 12.5 % of bees remain or 0.125*N. And after 4 days 40% more bees die. And that is 0.4*0.125*N = 0.05N. 0.05*100% is 5%. So after 19 days, 5% of bees remain and 95% of bees is dead.
