Answer:

$0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Hours ___Lot A Cost ($) ___ Lot B Cost ($) 4____________19.00 _____ 20.00

8 ___________ 33.00 ______ 32.00

Using the equation :

y = mx + C

m = slope = Hourly charge

C = intercept = set park fee

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

For LotA:

m1 = (33 - 19) / (8 - 4)

m1 = 14 / 4

m1 = 3.5

For LotB:

m2 = (32 - 20) / (8 - 4)

m2 = 12 / 4

m2 = 3

Since, m is the hourly cost :

Difference = m1 - m2

= 3.5 - 3

= $0. 5

Sam needs 7 1/2 cups of orange juice to make punch for a group of her friends. She only has 5 1/3 cups. Write and solve an equat

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Equation is $x+\frac{16}{3}=\frac{15}{2}$ where $x$ denotes number of cups of orange juice needed by Sam.

$x=\frac{13}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ denotes number of cups of orange juice needed by Sam.

Number of cups needed to make punch $=7\frac{1}{2} =\frac{15}{2}$

Number of cups with Sam $=5\frac{1}{3}=\frac{16}{3}$

Therefore,

$x+\frac{16}{3}=\frac{15}{2}\\\\x= \frac{15}{2}-\frac{16}{3}\\\\x=\frac{45-32}{6}\\\\x=\frac{13}{6}$

Write an equation for the parent function y = x^ 2 stretched by a factor of 6 and shifted down 4 units?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

 

Translations

y = f (x) + k up k units

y = f (x) - k down k units

y = f (x + h) left h units

y = f (x - h) right h units

Stretches/Shrinks

y = m·f (x) stretch vertically by a factor of m

y = ·f (x) shrink vertically by a factor of m (stretch by

y = f (x) stretch horizonally by a factor of n

y = f (nx) shrink horizontally by a factor of n (stretch by )

Reflections

y = - f (x) reflect over x-axis (over line y = 0)

y = f (- x) reflect over y-axis (over line x = 0)

x = f (y) reflect over line y = x

Hope this helps
