<h3>Answer: 285, choice A</h3>

=================================================

Explanation:

x = number of attendees

y = cost

If you increase the number of attendees (x) by 15, then the cost (y) goes up by 105. We see this by subtracting the values

30 - 15 = 15

495 - 390 = 105

Divide the change in cost over the change in people. So we have 105/15 = 7

The 7 represents the unit rate, which is the amount of money it costs for one person. Each time we add a person, it costs $7. So we can say "it costs 7 dollars per person"

At 7 dollars per person, 15 people will be charged 15*7 = 105. However, the table shows $390 is the actual cost. So 390 - 105 = 285 is the base cost

Or you can use the second column. If we had 30 people, then 7*30 = 210 is the cost without the base cost added on. The table shows 495, so 495-210 = 285 which is the same answer as before.

-------------------------------------

Alternative method

This method involves more equations and algebra

First use the slope formula. You can use any two points from the table. I'm going to use (15, 390) and (30, 495)

m = slope

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

m = (495-390)/(30-15)

m = (105)/(15)

m = 7 <<--- this is the unit rate, aka cost per person

Use the slope and one of the points to find the y intercept

y = mx+b

y = 7x+b

390 = 7(15)+b

390 = 105+b

105+b = 390

b = 390-105

b = 285 <<-- this is the y intercept, aka base cost

The base cost is the price you pay to get in the door. This cost stays the same no matter how many people are in your party. The equation would be y = 7x+285. Note how plugging in x = 15 leads to y = 390. At the same time, plugging in x = 30 leads to y = 495.

A freezer can be bought on hire purchase by making a desposiy of 15% of the cash price which is $2975 the interest which is 20%
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The deposit

= 15% × $2975

= 15/100 × $2975

= 0.15 × $2975

= $446.25

b. The hire purchase price

Outstanding balance = $2975 - $446.25 = $2528.75

20% of outstanding balance

= 20% × $2528.75

= 0.2 × $2528.75

= $505.75

Hire purchase price

= $2975 + $505.75

= $3480.75

c. The difference the hire purchase price and cash price

= $3480.75 - $2975

= $505.75

d. The difference as a percentage of the cash price.

= ($505.75 / $2975) × 100

= 0.17 × 100

= 17%

Is w = 8 a solution to the equation 5 + w = 58? Explain
sp2606 [1]

No.

Since w = 8, you must replace the variable with the number associated to it.

So, it would be 5 + 8 = 58

5 + 8 is not equal to 58, it is equal to 13.

If you wanted to find out what w was, simply subtract 5 on both sides.

w = 58 - 5
