3/4 is as simple as it gets
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to create two equations for each company and then set them equal to each other. The keywords base fee means you will pay this amount regardless, so this amount stays constant and it will be the constant in the equation. The other keyword is per. Per will link the variable with the coefficient.
The first equation for company M:
y = 12x + 60
The second equation for company N:
y = 9x + 120
Set the equations equal to each other.
9x + 120 = 12x + 60
Solve for x. I am going to subtract 9x from both sides first.
9x - 9x + 120 = 12x -9x +60
120 = 3x +60
Now, I will subtract 60 from both sides.
120 - 60 = 3x + 60 - 60
60 = 3x
Finally, I will divide both sides by 3
60/3 = 3x/3
x = 20
20 is how many guests it will take for the total cost to be the same.
I guess this reads


You want to compute

By linearity of the definite integral,


O.17 because it can also be 0.170 witch is still bigger then 0.165
Find the slope first
slope=(2-1)/(-1+3)=1/4=.25
now use the slope and either point to write in point slope form
y-1=.25(x-2)
y-1=¼x-½
to rationalize all the denominators multiply by the last common multiple, here we get 4
4y-4=x-2
then put in the correct order
x-4y=-2
