Answer:

The slopes are the same and produce parallel lines. The y-intercepts are different where one is 25 due to the $25 application fee and the other is 0 because the fee has been waived.

f(x)=15x

g(x)=15x+25

Step-by-step explanation:

Using slope-intercept form, f(x)=mx+b, we can substitute m=the constant rate of change being charged for x months and b the one time fee paid. This will give us f(x) or the total cost of membership.

<u>With an application fee:</u>

We substitute m=15 since our cost steadily rises each month by 15. This is our slope. But we must also add the one time application fee by substituting b=25. This becomes:

g(x)=15x+25.


<u>Without an application fee:</u>

We substitute m=15 since our cost steadily rises each month by 15. This is our slope. Since our application fee was waved, b=0.

f(x)=15x.


Comparing the two functions on a graph will show parallel lines that do not cross because they share the same m or slope. We would also see that they cross the y-axis at different points due to their different values for b.

Jessica is purchasing a new car whose MSRP is $19,750. She is trading in her old car for $8100 and being upgraded to a premium p
andrew-mc [135]

Jessica is purchasing a new car whose MSRP is $19,750. She is trading in her old car for $8100.

Without the upgrade package and delivery charge , the cost of her car is

19,750 - 8100 = $11650

upgraded cost = $6000 and  Vehicle delivery =  $600. we add the upgraded cost and delivery cost.

Total cost of car = 11650 + 6000 + 600 = $18,250

If CF = 5, CD = 12, and EF = 5, what is the perimeter of triangle CDE?
Basile [38]

Answer:

The perimeter of triangle CDE is 34.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of a triangle, you have to add all the sides together, since this looks like a isosceles triangle, you would make side ED also 12 and then just add them all together.

12+12+5+5= 34.

WILL MAKE BRAINLIEST IF CORRECT!! <br><br> What is the equation of the line? *easy*
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

y = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis is

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through all points with a y- coordinate of - 7, then

y = - 7 ← equation of line
