We have two unknowns: x and y. Now, we have to formulate 2 equations. The first would come from the use of the given ratio:
We use the distance formula to find the distance between coordinates:
3/4 = √[(x-4)²+(y-1)²] / √[(4-12)²+(1-5)²]
√[(x-4)²+(y-1)²] = 3√5
(x-4)²+(y-1)² = 45
x² - 8x + 16 + y² - 2y + 1 = 45
x² - 8x + y² - 2y = 28 --> eqn 1
The second equation must come from the equation of a line:
y = mx +b
m = (5-1)/(12-4) = 1/2
Substitute y=5 and x=12 for point (12,5)
5 = (1/2)(12) + b
b = -1
So, the second equation is
y = 1/2x -1 or x = 2 + 2y --> eqn 2
Solving the equations simultaneously:
(2 + 2y)² - 8(2 + 2y) + y² - 2y = 28
Solving for y,
y = -2
x = 2+2(-2) = -2
Therefore, the coordinates of point A is (-2,-2).

Answer:
(a) The dependant veriable is the $120 per hour and the independant veriable is the $75 consultaion fee.
(b) The table of vaules for this would look like this,
, where C = cost and T = time.
(c) The relationship between C and T is linear, beacause with the more hours you take the cost increases.
(d) Yes, it is sensible because the points would be in line due to the steady increase of the hourly rate.
(e) For every hour spent the cost increases 120 dollars.
(f) The fixed cost is 75 dollars for consultation and the veriable cost is 120 per hour.
Answer: B) False
A counter-example would be the cubic polynomial y = x^3 which doesn't have a max or a min. The graph stretches forever in both directions (up and down) indicating that the range is the set of all real numbers.
$745.42 because $375.98 - $38.56 = $337.42. Since Mr. Kent deposited $408.00 into his balance at the bank, $408.00 + $337.42 = $745.42.
