Rates like $ per channel is a slope, "m". The added fee is a constant so it's the intercept "b".
y = mx + b
So for the first problem (9)
(a)
y = total cost in dollars
x = number of premium channels
y = 16x + 44
(b) when x = 3 channels
y = 16(3) + 44
y = 92 $
the second problem (10)
(a) every 4 years the tree grows by 12-9=3 ft
So the unit rate or slope will be 3 ft per 4 yrs, (3/4). You can see this also by solving for slope "m" using the given points (4,9) and (8,12).
x = number of years
y = height of tree in ft
y = (3/4)x + b
use one of the points to find the y-intercept "b".
9 = (3/4)(4) + b
9 = 3 + b
9 - 3 = b
6 = b
y = (3/4)x + 6
(b) when x = 16
y = (3/4)(16) + 6
y = 12 + 6
y = 18 ft
Answer:
x = 20
y = 10
m∡8 = 110°
Step-by-step explanation:
m∡1 + m∡2 = 180
5x + y + 3x + y = 180
8x + 2y = 180
m∡1 = m∡8 (they are alternate-exterior angles and are congruent)
5x + y = 3x + 5y
2x = 4y
x = 2y
Substitute '2y' for 'x' in 8x + 2y = 180
8(2y) + 2y = 180
18y = 180
y = 10
x = 2(10)
x = 20
m∡8 = 3(20) + 5(10) = 110°
Answer:
The answer to your question is 2x² - 29x + 26
Step-by-step explanation:
dividend = 6x³ - 25x² + 20x + 4
divisor = 3x + 2
2x² - 29x + 26
3x + 2 6x³ - 25x² + 20x + 4
-6x³ - 4x²
0 - 29x² + 20x
+ 29x² + 58x
0 78x + 4
-78x - 52
0 - 48
quotient = 2x² - 29x + 26
remainder = -48
Result = 2x² - 29x + 26 - 48/6x³ - 25x² + 20x + 4
