<em><u>Question:</u></em>
An Internet business charges a flat rate of $6.50 for shipping. If x represents the cost of the items purchased and y represents the total cost with shipping, which equation best represents the relationship between x and y?
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
y = 6.5 + x represents the relationship between x and y
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
An internet charges a flat rate of $6.50 for shipping
Let "x" be the cost of items purchased
Let "y" be the total cost with shipping
Therefore,
Total cost with shipping = flat rate of 6.50 + cost of items purchased
Thus, we get,
y = 6.50 + x
y = 6.5 + x
Thus the above equation represents the relationship between x and y
Answer:
c=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: -7c+2=16
-7c=16-2
-7c=14
c=14/-7
c=-2
Your answer will be 7,040.
<em>HOW TO SOLVE: </em>We start out with the car's value of 8,000. You see that the value of the vehicle is going to <em>depreciate, </em>or lower. It will depreciate by 12%, so we need to find 12% of 8,000.
This will you get you 960. All we need to do now is subtract 960 from 8,000, so you will be left with 7040.
Slope intercept form: y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept
We are given the slope of 5/3.
We can solve the y-intercept by using the given slope and coordinate:
y = 5/3x + b
5 = 5/3(6) + b
5 = 10 + b
5 - 10 = 10 - 10 + b
-5 = b
Put this into the final equation:
y = 5/3x - 5
Best of Luck!

A) Job Offer #1 would be better financially until job offer 2 (in 12 years) would be a better and have more income, so IMO job offer #1 would set you better off financially
B) it would take 12 years for job offer #2 to become a better offer (you can also express this in your own words if needed)
