Answer:

D. 80 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

d- distance

d/50= 0.6d/40+0.4d/x
1/50= 0.3/20+0.4/x
0.4/x= 0.02- 0.015
x= 0.4/0.005
x= 80 mph

A manufacturer earns Rs4500 in the first month and Rs 6000 in second month. On plotting these points a manufacturer observes a l

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

$f(x) = 1500x +3000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the months with x and the earnings with y.

So:

$(x_1,y_1) = (1,4500)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (2,6000)$

Required

Determine the linear function

First, calculate slope (m)

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{6000 - 4500}{2 - 1}$

$m = \frac{1500}{1}$

$m = 1500$

The equation is then calculated using:

$y = m(x - x_1) + y_1$

$y = 1500(x - 1) + 4500$

$y = 1500x - 1500 + 4500$

$y = 1500x +3000$

As a function, we have:

$f(x) = 1500x +3000$

Please help me with number six

Tpy6a [65]

$w = 2x = 2( \frac{y}{3}) \\ v = 2w = 2 \times 2( \frac{y}{3} ) \\ v + w + x + y = 180 \\ \frac{4}{3} y + \frac{2}{3} y + \frac{y}{3} + y = 180 \\ y( \frac{4}{3} + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{3} + 1) = 180 \\ y = \frac{180}{()}$
