D bc it needs to have a y intercept of -1
Answer:
Happy paws
y = 20 + 4x
Woof watchers
y = 9 + 5x
x = 11 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Number of hours = x
Total cost = y
Total cost = fixed cost + variable cost
The equations are:
Happy paws
y = 20 + 4x
Woof watchers
y = 9 + 5x
solve the equation to find for how many hours the total cost of the services is equal.
Equate total cost of both services
20 + 4x = 9 + 5x
Collect like terms
20 - 9 = 5x - 4x
11 = x
x = 11 hours
Check:
Happy paws
y = 20 + 4x
= 20 + 4(11)
= 20 + 44
= 64
Woof watchers
y = 9 + 5x
= 9 + 5(11)
= 9 + 55
= 64
Answer:
d = 40/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for d:
0.544444 = 28/(9 d)
0.544444 = 49/90:
49/90 = 28/(9 d)
49/90 = 28/(9 d) is equivalent to 28/(9 d) = 49/90:
28/(9 d) = 49/90
Take the reciprocal of both sides:
(9 d)/28 = 90/49
Multiply both sides by 28/9:
Answer: d = 40/7
I think it is D cause it could be equal
The division property of exponents only applies when the two powers have the same base.
