Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Terri spent the 'x' hours in the river,
Per hour rental charged by Timmy's Tubes =
=
= $7.5
Charges for 'x' hours = $7.5x
Therefore, function that defines the rental of Timmy's tube will be,
f(x) = 7.5x
Another company Fred's float charges a base fee $2 plus $6.25 per hours.
For 'x' hours Fred's float will charge = 6.25x + 2
And the function that defines the charges will be,
g(x) = 6.25x + 2
1). If x = 1.5 hours,
Rental charged by Timmy's tube,
f(1.5) = 7.5(1.5)
= $11.25
Rental charged by Fred's float,
g(1.5) = 6.25(1.5) + 2
= $11.375
2). If Terri has $12 to spend,
For f(x) = 12,
12 = 7.5x
x = 1.6 hours
For g(x) = 12
12 = 6.25x + 2
10 = 6.25x
x = 1.6 hours
Therefore, both the companies charge the same for 1.6 hors.
Terri can opt any company to spend $12.
Answer:
y = -4x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b ( slope-intercept)
1. Find Slope:
Lets name 2 as y2 and 10 as y1. And 0 as x2 and 2 as x1.
=
= -4
m/slope = -4
2. Find y-intercept:
2 = -4(0) + b
= 2 = b
Y-intercept/b = 2
3. Put into slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
= y = -4x + 2
Hope that helps! :D
