Answer:

see bottom

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

m=slope

b=yint

two points

cost=y

(4,5.5) and (7,7.75)

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

slope=(7.75-5.5)/(7-4)=2.25/3=0.75

y=0.75x+b

find b

(4,5.5)

x=4

y=5.5

5.5=0.75(4)+b

5.5=3+b

minus 3 fromboth sides

2.5=b

y=0.75x+2.5

3 hours

y=0.75(3)+2.5

y=2.25+2.5

y=4.75

answer is D

Given:
hours     parking charge
4                 5.50
7                 7.75

7 - 4 = 3 hours
7.75 - 5.50 = 2.25

2.25 / 3 = 0.75

0.75 is the change in amount for every hour spent. It is the variable unit rate

4 hours is 5.50.

Cost of parking for 3 hours is: 5.50 - 0.75 = 4.75

0.75 x 4 hours = 3 
5.50 - 3 = 2.5 fixed charge.

total parking charge:  y = 2.50 + 0.75x

The height of a right cylinder is 3 times the radius of the base. The volume of the cylinder is 24 cubic units what is the heigh
IgorLugansk [536]
Put the given information into the formula and solve for the variable of interest.
.. V = π*r^2*h
.. 24 = π*(h/3)^2*h
.. 24 = π/9*h^3
.. 9*24/π = h^3
.. ∛(216/π) = h
.. h = (6/π)√(π^2) ≈ 4.097 . . . . units

The height of the cylinder is about 4.097 units.

Answer:

  b.  -150

Step-by-step explanation:

We usually take elevation to be positive above sea level, and negative below sea level. If the elevation is below sea level, it is negative. If it is within 200 ft of sea level, the magnitude of the negative number is 200 or less. That is, the elevation must satisfy ...

  -200 ≤ elevation < 0

The only answer choice in that range is -150.

Ethan's elevation in feet could be -150.

In TUV below, find m T to the nearest degree
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

T = 88 degrees to the nearest degree

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the measure of the angle T, we can use the cosine rule

We have the formula as;

t^2 = u^2 + v^2 - 2uv Cos T

t = 8.1

u = 7.1

v = 4.2

8.1^2 = 7.1^2 + 4.2^2 - 2(7.1)(4.2) cos T

-2.44 = -59.64 cos T

cos T = (2.44)/(59.64)

T = arc cos (2.44/59.64)

T = 87.66

to the nearest degree, this is 88 degrees
