Answer:

t(x) =12.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of customers be x

Let amount of x tickets be t(x)

The amount of sales of tickets at a movie theater t(x) varies directly with the number of customers x.

So, t(x) \propto x

t(x) = kx---A

where k is the constant of proportionality

Fourteen customers paid a total of $175 for tickets.

So, x = 14

y = 175

Substitute the values in A

175 = k(14)

\frac{175}{14} = k

12.5 = k

Substitute the value of k in A

t(x) =12.5x

Hence an equation can be used to find the ticket sales for x customers is t(x) =12.5x

Kelsey graphed the equation y = 3x + 1 as shown below.
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

D. Kelsey graphed the slope as the y-intercept and the y-intercept as the slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to graph was : y= 3x + 1 where the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is 1

However, Kelsey graph line passes through points (-3, 0)and (0, 3).From these points the equation of the line is;

m=Δy/Δx  where

m=the slope of the graph

Δy= 3-0 =3

Δx= 0--3 =3

m=3/3 = 1

The equation of the line should be;

m=Δy/Δx

1=y-3/x-0

1x= y-3

3+1x= y

y= 1x + 3 ----------where the slope is 1 and y-intercept is 3

So you can see here that in the original equation,<em> the slope m is 3 and y-intercept is 1 as shown in the first attached graph.</em>

While in the Kelsey's graph, <em>the slope is 1 and the y-intercept is 3 as in the second attached graph. </em>

<em>Thus, the correct answer is D : Kelsey graphed </em><u><em>the slope,3</em></u><em> as the </em><em>y-intercept </em><em>and the</em><u><em> y-intercept,1,</em></u><em> as the slope. </em>

Answer choice A is incorrect because Kelsey didnot graph the y-intercept, 1 on the x-axis but graphed point (-3,0) on the x-axis.

Answer choice B is incorrect because on Kelsey's equation the y-intercept is 3 and not -3. i.e. y=1x + 3

Answer choice C is incorrect because Kelsey graphed the slope as up 1 right 1 which is okay per the equation , y=1x+3.However, this incorrect because the correct graph has a slope of 3.

For what values ​​does c have no solutions?
defon

Solve for c :

x⁴ + cx² + 100 = 0

cx² = -(x⁴ + 100)

c = - (x⁴ + 100)/x²

If x = 0, the right side is undefined and c would have no solution.

In circle D, angle ADC measures (7x + 2)°. Arc AC
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The measure of angle ABC is 36° ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some important facts in the circle

The measure of the center angle is equal to the measure of its subtended arc

The measure of the inscribed angle is equal to half the measure of the central angle subtended by the same arc

The vertex of a central angle is the center of the circle and its sides are radii in the circle

The vertex of an inscribed angle is a point on the circle, and its sides are chords in the circle

In circle D

∵ D is the center of the circle

∵ A and C lie on the circle

- DA and DC are radii

∴ ∠ADC is a central angle subtended by arc AC

∴ m∠ADC = m of arc AC

∵ m∠ADC = (7x + 2)°

∵ m of arc AC = (8x - 8)°

- Equate them to find x

∴ 8x - 8 = 7x + 2

- subtract 7x from both sides

∴ x - 8 = 2

- Add 8 to both sides

∴ x = 10

Substitute the value of x in the measure of ∠ADC

∵ m∠ADC = 7(10) + 2 = 70 + 2

∴ m∠ADC = 72°

∵ AB and BC are two chords in circle D

∴ ∠ABC is an inscribed angle subtended by arc AC

∵ ∠ADC is a central angle subtended by arc AC

- By using the 2nd fact above

∴ m∠ABC =  m∠ADC

∴ m∠ABC =  × 72

∴ m∠ABC = 36°
