Given:

Fixed charges = $40

Variable charges = $1.70 for each mile.

To find:

The equation that represents the total cost y for x miles towed.

Find the y-intercept and interpret its meaning in the context of the situation.

Solution:

Let y be the total cost for x miles.

Fixed charges = $40

Variable charges for 1 mile = $1.70

Variable charges for x mile = $1.70x

Now,

Total changes = Fixed charges + Variable changes

$y=40+1.70x$

Therefore, the required equation is $y=40+1.70x$ .

Putting x=0 in the above equation, we get

$y=40+1.70(0)$

$y=40+0$

$y=40$

Therefore, the y-intercept is 40. It means the charges to hook a car is $40 if it is towed 0 miles.

Answer:

1) the genes and chromosomes do not double after each generations because parental sex cells are haploid and only contain one set of chromosomes. During fertilization the two cells fuse to form a diploid zygote with two copies of genes and chromosomes. For example a normal human has 46 chromosomes (2 copies of 23 chromosomes) during reproduction gametes which contain 23 chromosomes (haploid) fuse to form an offspring with the correct number of chromosomes ( 23 + 23 = 46).

2) offspring only receive one set of chromosomes from each parent so to maintain the chromosome number of humans. If this did not happen you would not be the same species.

Answer:

Aerobic glycolysis has a slow rate of ATP production and is predominantly utilized during longer-duration, lower-intensity activities after the phosphagen and anaerobic systems have fatigued. It is important to remember that all three of these systems contribute to the energy needs of the body during physical activity

Answer:

The correct answer is : prokaryotic organisms like E. coli and higher organisms share common ancestor.

Explanation:

E. Coli is a prokaryotic organism or bacteria. On the metabolic level these organisms share similar homology with the higher organism other than this these organisms also show same core functions with higher level organisms such as elephant.

These similarities suggest that the all the living organisms share a common ancestor. The french scientist Jacques Monod statement "Anything found to be true of E. Coli must also be true of elephants." is also based on this notion.
