Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
<u>What we need to know:</u>
- Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form:
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0) - Parallel lines always have the same slope
<u>1) Determine the slope of line S using line R (m)</u>
We can identify clearly that the slope of the line is 
, as it is in the place of m. Because parallel lines always have the same slope, the slope of line S would also be . Plug this into :
<u>2) Determine the y-intercept of line S (b)</u>
Plug in the given point (-4,3) and solve for b
Subtract 1 from both sides to isolate b
Therefore, the y-intercept is 2. Plug this back into :
I hope this helps!

Answer: 100 rides are needed to break even.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given the cost function
C(x)=15x+2000 where x is the number of rides.
And rides cost 35$
⇒ revenue function would be 35 times x
i.e.R(x)=35 x , where x is the number of rides.
Break even point of a firm occurs when at a certain point x the total cost equals to the total revenue.
i.e. at break even point
total revenue=total cost
⇒35x=15x+2000
⇒35-15x=2000[subtract 15x from both sides]
⇒20x=2000 [simplify]
⇒x=2000/20[dividing both sides with 20]
⇒x=100
∴ 100 rides are needed to break even.
The perimeter would be (24x - 40)/(x^2 - 4x).
In order to find this, first double the length and width as you would to find any perimeter.
7/(x - 4) * 2 = 14/(x - 4)
5/x * 2 = 10/x
Now to add those together, we need to give them common denominators. In order to do that with the first one, we need to multiply by x/x
14/(x - 14) * x/x = 14x/(x^2 - 14x)
Then we can do the same with the second part by multiplying by (x - 4)/(x - 4)
10/x * (x - 4)/(x - 4) = (10x - 40)/(x^2 - 14x)
Now we can add the two together
14x/(x^2 - 14x) + (10x - 40)/(x^2 - 14x) = (24x - 40)/(x^2 - 14x)
