Y- mx+c

Take an example: The salary per hour:
Assume x (variable) is the number of hours worked and assume THAT THE RATE PER HOUR IS $10, then:
If you work x hours at the hourly rate of$10, you will generate an income,
say, y that is equal the number of hours worked by the rate per hour, that is:
y = 10.x. The more hour(x) you work, the more income(y) you get.
Hence we created a relationship between y and x , or in English, between the earning and the number of hours worked.
Moreover y depends on x, if there is no x, there is no y and if x increases, y increases. However x is an INDEPENDENT variable because you can
give to x any number & y will follow
A, because:
Hardcover: 0.35
Buys hard cover and non-fiction: 0.35 x 0.55 = 0.1925
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
As the triangles are similar :
45/55 = (12x - 3)/143
9/11 = (12x - 3)/143
9 x 13 = 12x - 3
12x = 117 + 3
12x = 120
x = 10
