Answer:
cost to make paper signs = $1
cost to make laminated signs = $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = cost to make paper signs
y = cost to make laminated signs
8x + 2y = 12 (1)
10x + 10y = 30 (2)
Multiply (1) by 5
40x + 10y = 60 (3)
10x + 10y = 30 (2)
Subtract (2) from (3) to solve for x
40x - 10x = 60 - 30
30x = 30
x = 30/30
x = $1
Substitute x = 1 into (1)
8x + 2y = 12
8(1) + 2y = 12
8 + 2y = 12
2y = 12 - 8
2y = 4
y = 4/2
y = $2
cost to make paper signs = $1
cost to make laminated signs = $2
I believe it's 16. I hope that helps
For exponential functions
y=ab^x,
where
a is the scale vertical stretch factor,
b is the base, and
x the exponent (also independent variable)
It is a know fact that if the scale factor (1/2 or 2 in the answer choices) is positive, the graph is increasing if the base (3 or 1/3) is greater than 1.
This means that the base cannot be equal to 1/3. This eliminates choices 3 and 4.
Next, for a base greater than 1 (3>1), and the scale factor positive, it is a dilation (image gets bigger) if the scale factor is greater than 1. This eliminates the first choice where a=2.
This leaves us with the second choice where a=1/2, b=3, which is a shrink of the given exponential base function.
answer:
no, it does not represent a proportional relationship because it has a y-intercept therefore it won’t go through the origin.
