Which shows the equation 12x+4y=480 in general form??
2 answers:
Question is asking about which shows the equation in general form. Options are not given but we can still find the solution.
Given equation is a linear equation so we will need to check general formula of the equation of line. which is given by formula:
Where a, b and c are integers.
Now compare given equation with general formula
to find the difference between them.
We see that every term is on the left side of the = in formula but 480 is on the right side of give equation so we will move 480 to the left side.
to do that we subtract 480 from both sides
Now the new equation looks exactly like the general formula.
Hence final answer is

Consider rectangular box with
- length x units (x≥0);
- width 3 units;
- height (8-x) units (8-x≥0, then x≤8).
The volume of the rectangular box can be calculated as
In your case,
Note that maximal possible value of the height can be 8 units (when x=0 - minimal possible length) and the minimal possible height can be 0 units (when x=8 - maximal possible length).
From the attached graph you can see that the greatest x-intercept is x=8, then the height will be minimal and lenght will be maximal.
Then the volume will be V=0 (minimal).
Answer: correct choices are B (the maximum possible length), C (the minimum possible height)
The point-slope form:
We have the points (1, 2) and (3, 6). Substitute:
