Answer:

The cost to rent each chair and each table are $1.5 and $8.75 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent 1 chair

Let y represent 1 table

Therefore

3x + 2y = 22   ------------(1)

5x + 6y = 60   ------------(2)

Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by 3

15x + 10y = 110   ----------(3)

15x + 18y = 180  ------------(4)

Subtract (3) from (4)

8y = 70

Divide through by 8

y = $8.75

Substitute y = 8.75 in (1)

3x + 2y = 22

3x + 2(8.75) = 22

3x + 17.5 = 22

Collect like terms

3x = 22 - 17.5

3x = 4.5

Divide through by 3

x =$1.5

Determine the equation of the parabola whose graph is given below. Write your answer in General Form. A parabola on a coordinate
dimaraw [331]

The equation of parabola becomes y = -2/25(x-3)^2 + 4.

According to the statement

we have given a graph and from this graph we have to find the equation of parabola in the general form.

So,

we know that the equation of parabola in general form is

y = a(x-h)^2 +k - (1)

From the graph we have:

a point on the graph is (x,y) = (-2,2)

the vertex of the graph is (h,k) = (3,4)

Now, substitute these values in the equation number (1)

Then

y = a(x-h)^2 +k

2 = a(-2-3)^2 +4

2 = a(-5)^2 +4

2 = a(25) +4

25a = -2

a = -2/25.

Now put a = -2/25 and (h,k) = (3,4) in the equation(1).

Then

the equation of parabola becomes y = -2/25(x-3)^2 + 4

So, The equation of parabola becomes y = -2/25(x-3)^2 + 4.

What is the value of y?<br> 54"<br> A. 126°<br> B. 730<br> C. 63°<br> D. 540
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: 63 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

Therefore: 54 + y + y = 180

So 54 + 2y = 180

So 2y = 126

Therefore y = 63 degrees.

The revenue from selling x shirts is r(x) = 11x. The cost of buying x shirts is c(x) = 6x + 20. The profit from selling x shirts
oee [108]

Answer: option A is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression that relates revenue, profit and cost is

Profit = Revenue - Cost

The revenue from selling x shirts is r(x) = 11x. The cost of buying x shirts is c(x) = 6x + 20. Therefore,

p(x) = r(x) - c(x)

p(x) = 11x - (6x + 20)

By expanding the bracket, the minus sign will alter each term in the bracket. Therefore,

p(x) = 11x - 6x - 20

p(x) = 5x - 20
