Answer:

x=20, y=100

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2x=7x-40

5x=7x-40

2x=40

x=20

7x-40=y

140-40=y

100=y

y=100

According to the exterior angle theorem, the two remote interior angles are equal to the exterior angle. This is why we set 3x+2x equal to 7x-40.

According to the vertical angles theorem, two angles that are opposite and formed by two intersecting straight lines are equal. This is why we set 7x-40 equal to y.

Because we already knew that x was 20, we could put it into our equation. (7*20)-40=y.

Hope this helped! :D

250 / 50

which equals 5

The probability is really little because a shuffle will shuffle it in a mix order which makes it a really little chance for it to be in alphabetical order

Write a linear cost function for the situation. Identify all variables used. A parking garage charges 4 dollars plus 65 cents pe

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The linear cost function is $C(x)=1.3x+4$ dollar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A parking garage charges 4 dollars plus 65 cents per half-hour. A linear cost function for the situation is C(x)=L.

To find : Write a linear cost function for the situation ?

Solution :

Cost function is defined as sum of marginal cost and fixed cost.

Let x be the number of hours i.e. time for which parking cost.

A parking garage charges 4 dollars plus 65 cents per half-hour.

The fixed price is $4.

Marginal cost is 65 cents per half-hour.

Converting cents into dollar,

1 cent = 0.01 dollar

65 cent = 0.65 dollar

The cost of $\frac{1}{2}$ hour = $0.65

The cost of x hours = $0.65\times 2x$

So, marginal cost is $1.3x.

Cost function is defined as

$C(x)=MC+FC$

$C(x)=1.3x+4$

$C(x)=1.3x+4$ dollar.

Therefore, The linear cost function is $C(x)=1.3x+4$ dollar where x is the number of hours.
