Jessica is selling books during the summer to earn money for college. She earns a commission on each sale but has to pay for her

own expenses. After a month of driving from neighborhood to neighborhood and walking door-to-door, she figures out that her weekly earnings are approximately a linear function of the number of doors she knocks on. She writes the equation of the function like this: E(x) = 10x - 30, where x is the number of doors she knocks on during the week and E(x) is her earnings for the week in dollars. Which of the following are reasonable interpretations of the y-intercept?
Check all that apply.

A. She will lose $10 per week if she does not knock on any doors.
B. Her expenses are $30 per week.
C. If she does not knock on any doors at all during the week, she will lose $30.
D. She can earn $10 per week even if she does not knock on any doors.

Answer:

The correct option is B and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

E(x) = 10x - 30

Where x is the number of doors she knocks on during the week and E(x) is her earnings for the week in dollars.

We need to interpret the meaning of y-intercept.

Y-intercepts is a point where the value of x is zero.

Substitute the value of x = 0 in above function.

E(x) = 10(0) - 30

E(x) =-30

That means her expenses are 30 per week or if she doesn't knock on any doors, she would still have the expenses, therefore losing $30.

Her expenses are $30 and If she does not knock on any doors at all during the week, she will lose $30, So both A & B apply.

Hence, the correct option is B and C.

What does the dotted line in the diagram imply about the number of triangles you can construct from the given information
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:A triangle is aptly named: it is composed of three (tri) angles formed by three non-coincident, non-parallel lines. That the lines are non-coincident means they do not overlap, and that they are non-parallel means that each line intersects with every other line. Correspondingly, a triangle also has three sides.

I need help ASAP can someone please help me right away​.​
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

45 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of this web as a circle. This circle is divided into 8 equal pieces.

A circle has 360 degrees in it. If we divide 360 by 8, we get 45. This means that each wedge is 45 degrees, which means that in order to rotate the image to look the same, we must rotate it by 45 degrees.
