If I’m not mistaken I think this is what you’re asking for?
Answer:
$92.86
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's AT LEAST 1800, the inequality sign would be ≥ 1800
Equation:
500 + 14x ≥ 1800
14x ≥ 1800 - 500
14x ≥ 1300
x ≥ 92.86
gallon = pint *0.125
gallon = pint / 8
0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+
0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125 = 2
16 would be the answer I believe, maybe I'm wrong, double check.
When a line and a curve are tangent to each other, they are joined together by 1 point (x,y). So, you equate both equations either in terms of x or y. For this problem, let's equate in terms of y.
y = k - x
y = x² + 3x + 1
k - x = x² + 3x + 1
k = x² + 3x + x + 1
k = x² + 4x + 1
This would be the value of k. Since we are not given the common point, it can only be expressed in terms of x or y.
I would like to help but, I need more background information.
