Let 'x' represent the number of baskets and let 'y' be the total cost.
Since the paint costs 14.50 and each basket cost 7.25, then we have the following function:
To find the cost of 4 baskets, we can make x = 4 and solve for y:
therefore, the cost of painting 4 baskets is $43.50
L +2w = 500
a = lw
a) l = 500 -2w
.. a = (500 -2w)*w
b) The zeros of the above equation are w=0, w=250. The vertex of this quadratic is on the line of symmetry, halftway between the zeros, at w=125 ft.
c) a = (500 -2*125)*125 = 31,250 . . . . square feet
The equation in y = mx+b form is y = -450x+2745
where,
x = number of hours that have passed by
y = distance to destination in miles
The y intercept is 2745 since this is the initial starting y value, aka the starting distance. Therefore b = 2745.
The slope is -450 or -450/1 since for each hour, the distance goes down by 450. You can think of it as
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
slope = (change in distance)/(change in time)
slope = (-450 miles)/(1 hour)
slope = -450
Answer:
Step 1
Write and solve the inequality:
2,500 + 40a ≥ 4,000, or 40a ≥ 1,500
a ≥ 37.5
Step 2
If the shelter places 30 cats and 10 dogs,
or 40 animals, that will be enough to meet
its goal, because a = 40 is a solution to the
inequality a ≥ 37.5.
D is the answer because it says each and that’s a key word to understand that it’s multiplying
