Answer:

The price will be the same for both companies at 60 mugs

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the rate of change
  • b is the fixed amount

Assume that the number of mugs is x and the total cost of them is $y

∵ The Cup Company will make them for $4 each plus a $30

   set-up charge

∴ The cost per mug = $4

∴ m = 4

∴ The fixed amount = $30

∴ b = 30

∵ x is the number of mugs

∵ y is the cost of them

→ Substitute the values of m and b in the form of the equation

∴ y = 4x + 30 ⇒ (1)

∵  Mugs Are Us will make them for $4.50 each with no set-up charge

∴ The cost per mug = $4.50

∴ m = 4.5

∴ The fixed amount = 0

∴ b = 0

∵ x is the number of mugs

∵ y is the cost of them

→ Substitute the values of m and b in the form of the equation

∴ y = 4.5x + 0

∴ y= 4.5x ⇒ (2)

∵ The price be the same for both companies

→ Equate the right sides of (1) and (2)

∴ 4.5x = 4x + 30

→ Subtract 4x from both sides

∵ 4.5x - 4x = 4x - 4x + 30

∴ 0.5x = 30

→ Divide both sides by 0.5

∴ x = 60

∴ The price will be the same for both companies at 60 mugs

Angle A is shown below.<br>What is the measure of LA, in degrees?​
Vesna [10]

The measure of angle A is 55°.

Solution:

Let us take B be the adjacent angle of 145°.

<em>Sum of the adjacent angles in a straight line = 180°</em>

⇒ m∠B + 145° = 180°

Subtract 145° from both sides.

⇒ m∠B + 145° - 145° = 180° - 145°

⇒ m∠B = 35°

The adjacent angle of 145° is 35°.

In the image, angle B and angle A equal to 90°.

⇒ m∠B + m∠A = 90°

⇒ 35° + m∠A = 90°

Subtract 35° from both sides.

⇒ m∠A = 55°

The measure of angle A is 55°.
