The first thing that he has to do is take that "minus" sign through the parentheses containing the second polynomial. Some students find it helpful to put a " 1 " in front of the parentheses, to help them keep track of the minus sign. Here's what the subtraction looks like, when working horizontally/
Answer:
$ 103 for each person
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple,
you have a fixed rate of $25, meaning you get a haircut, it's $25
ANY other service is an extra $15
So, let's make the equation...
y=15x+25
Now, to just get a haircut it's $25.
But, let's say you get a haircut+shampoo
It'd be..
y=15(1)+25
y=$40
Another one..
You get a haircut+shampoo+highlight
y=15(3)+25
y=$70
And so on, and so forth.
Answer:
y = -6x + 70
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the amount of oil in the tank decreases constantly, we need to create a linear function. Using the base form, y = mx + b, we can replace -6 for m because volume decreases by 6 (or increases by -6) each hour, and +70 for b because we start off with 70 liters of oil. So we get y = -6x + 70, with x representing the number of hours, and y representing the volume of oil remaining.
