Answer:
B = 0.95m + 29.95
Step-by-step explanation:
this is really y = mx + b
m is a rate, 0.95 per mile
b is the y-intercept, or the price you pay no matter what, 29.95
The range of F(x) = logb x is True
Check the picture below, that's just an example of a parabola opening upwards.
so the cost equation C(b), which is a quadratic with a positive leading term's coefficient, has the graph of a parabola like the one in the picture, so the cost goes down and down and down, reaches the vertex or namely the minimum, and then goes back up.
bearing in mind that the quantity will be on the x-axis and the cost amount is over the y-axis, what are the coordinates of the vertex of this parabola? namely, at what cost for how many bats?

It is less.
1/3= 0.33
1/2=0.50
I think it is 350(1.2)^t because you take the starting amount (350) and then multiple it by the growth rate (which is 20%, but when added to 100 and the put into a decimal is 1.2) raised by the number of hours (t).
I hope this helps.
