D is halfway between A and B

so the coordinates of D are (2,2)

E is halfway between A and C so the coordinates of E are (-1,1)

now you need to find the gradient/slope of DE and BC using the formula:

\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

<h3><u>G</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>i</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>f</u><u> </u><u>D</u><u>E</u><u>:</u><u> </u></h3>

SUB IN COORDINATES OF D AND E

\frac{1 - 2}{ - 1 - 2}

therefore the gradient of DE is 1/3.

<h3><u>G</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>i</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>f</u><u> </u><u>B</u><u>C</u><u>:</u></h3>

<em>S</em><em>U</em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>I</em><em>N</em><em> </em><em>C</em><em>O</em><em>O</em><em>R</em><em>D</em><em>I</em><em>N</em><em>A</em><em>T</em><em>E</em><em>S</em><em> </em><em>O</em><em>F</em><em> </em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>A</em><em>N</em><em>D</em><em> </em><em>C</em>

<em>\frac{ - 2 - 0}{ - 3 - 3}</em>

therefore the gradient of BC is -2/-6 which simplifies to 1/3.

<h3>therefore, BC and DE are parallel as they both have a gradient/slope of 1/3 and parallel lines have the same gradient</h3>

Solve the problem.

The total cost for plumber number 1 expressed as a function of x is

c1(x)=45x+90

That is, the charge per hour times the number of hours plus the fixed charge for a visit.

Using the same pattern, write the function for the second plumber. Then set the two functions equal to each other and solve for
