Answer:
A hostel has provision for 45 students for 30 days.If 15 more students joined the hostel after 6 days,how long will provision last?
Answer:
TC (A) = 40x , TC (B) = 500 + 20x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of students be = x
Hall A Total Cost
Relationship Equation, where TC (A) = f (students) = f (x) 40 per person (student) = 40x
Hall B Total Cost
Relationship Equation, where TC (B) = f (students) = f (x) 500 fix fee & 20 per person (student) = 500 + 20x
If the 3 points are collinear, then the slopes of all line segments connecting the points are the same.
Thus,
-6 - (-8) 2
m = ------------- = -------- = -1/2
-7 - (-3) -4
Then the following must be true:
4-(-6) 10
-1/2 = ------------ = ---------
c - (-7) c + 7
Cross multiplying, -(c+7) = 20, and c+7 = -20, so that c = -27
Eliminate parentheses using the distributive property.
... -1 -7g +42 +6g = 36
... 41 -g = 36 . . . . collect terms
... 41 -36 = g . . . . add g-36 to both sides
... 5 = g . . . . . .. . . your answer
