Answer:

y = 16x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

They charge $14 for each DVD, which mean the slope of the function is 14

You must pay an additional $6 for shipping and handling, which means no matter how many DVD you buy, you have to pay a flat fee for $6

So our function is:

y = 16x + 6 where:

y is total cost

x is the number of DVD you buy (x>0)

Combine the following fractions by addition or subtraction as directed.

Marina86 [1]

Answer: $\frac{6}{y^2-xy}-\frac{6}{x^2-xy}=\frac{6(x+y)}{xy(y-x)}$

Explanation:

Combining the fractions, we have:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{6(x^2-xy)-6(y^2-xy)}{(x^2-xy)(y^2-xy)} \\ \\ =\frac{6x^2-6xy-6y^2+6xy}{(x^2-xy)(y^2-xy)} \\ \\ =\frac{6x^2-6y^2}{x(x-y).y(y-x)} \\ \\ =\frac{6(x-y)(x+y)}{-xy(x-y)^2} \\ \\ =\frac{-6(x+y)}{xy(x-y)} \\ \\ =\frac{6(x+y)}{xy(y-x)} \end{gathered}$

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

6 times a larger number (so 6y) is equal (=) to the sum of a smaller number and 18 (x+18)

6y = x+18

Twice of larger number (2y) and the difference of smaller number (x) is equal to 6

2y - x = 6

solve for y. Divide both terms for 6.

6y/6 = 1/6x+3

y = 1/6x+3

second equation solve for y

move x to the right of equal

2y = x + 6

y = 1/2x + 3
