Mathematical models are helpful. Advantages include helping you see the data clearer and helping you visualize. Disadvantages are: time consuming, and if you make a mistake on the graph, its going to hit the entre thing.
The answer is the first chart which would be A
The answer should be 21 hope it helps
Answer:
Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96
So, Option 1 is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
The east edge cannot intersect with the west edge means that two lines are parallel.
If the two lines are parallel then they have same slope. We need to find the slopes of given lines and check which line has slope same as slope of west edge.
Slope of west edge.
y = 2x + 5
The standard equation for slope intercept form is:
y = mx+b
where m is the slope. So, m= 2
Now finding line for east edge.
Option 1.
Convert each given equation to standard slope intercept form and find the slope.
2x -y =96
-y = -2x +96
Multiply with -1
y = 2x -96
m = 2
Option 2.
-2x -y = 96
-y = 2x +96
y = -2x-96
m = -2
Option 3
-y-2x =48
-y = 2x +48
y = -2x -48
m = -2
Option 4.
y+2x = 48
y = -2x+48
m = -2
So, only line of Option 1 has slope = 2 which is equal to the slope of west edge.
Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96
So, Option 1 is correct.
