Hello!


The number of tickets is dependent on age, so age is the independent variable.


Think of it as a y = mx equation. In this equation, x is the input, and y changes depending on the value of x inputted.


In this situation, y is the number of tickets, as y changes depending on the age x inputted. x is age, the independent variable.

TRUE OR FALSE? The equation of a line with slope m = -3 and including point (5, 5) is y = -3x + 20.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x + 20

Put x as 5, then y output should be 5.

y = -3(5) + 20

y = -15 + 20

y = 5

True, the line with slope -3 passes through points (5, 5).

Given the relation y = 7x2 + 3, if the input is 4, what is the output? (4 points)
aivan3 [116]
I'm assuming that you meant: 
y = 7x² + 3 

Remember! Inputs are always x values (unless stated otherwise). Meaning the problem says: 
x = 4 

y = 7(4)² + 3 

The square only applies to the 4. The 7 is not going to be squared! (To be exact it only applies to whatever the value of x is. 

4² = 4·4 = 16

Remember: 
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

Follow PEMDAS from left to right (or in the case above from top to bottom).

7·16 + 3 = ? 

16·7 = 10·7 + 6·7 = 70 + 42 = 112
(All I did to multiply was break it up into parts. If it confuses you don't worry about it, and just multiply it out like normal or use a calculator if you are allowed to)

112 + 3 = ? 

Our output is: 
115!

Jerry planted a pine tree that was 5 feet tall and a maple tree that was 10 feet tall. The pine tree grew 3 feet taller per year
stich3 [128]

The initial length of the pine tree=5 feet.

Groth rate of pine tree =3 feet/year.

The initial length of the pine tree =10 feet.

Groth rate of the maple tree =2 feet/year.

After x years, the height of the pine tree= 5+3x feet and

after x years, the height of the maple tree= 10+2x feet.

The inequality for which, after x year, the pine tree is taller than the maple tree is

5+3x>10+2x

\Rightarrow x>5 .

The inequality for which, the pine tree is at least as tall as the maple tree is 5+3x\geq10+2x.

\Rightarrow x\geq 5 .

Again, after 3x years, the height of the pine tree= 5+3(3x)=5+9x feet and

after 2x years, the height of the maple tree= 10+2(2x)=10+4x feet.

The inequality for which, after 3x years, the pine tree is taller than the maple tree was after 2x years is

5+9x>10+4x

\Rightarrow 5x>5

\Rightarrow x>1.

The inequality for which, the pine tree is at least as tall as the maple tree is 5+9x\geq10+4x.

\Rightarrow 5x\geq5

\Rightarrow x\geq 1.
