B has to be 70° and A has to be 115° so I’m confused by your options
Answer:
34 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure can be considered to be a trapezoid with a rectangle removed.
The area of the trapezoid is ...
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h
A = (1/2)(10 +6)(5) = 40
The area of the rectangle is ...
A = LW
A = (3)(2) = 6
Then the area of the shaded portion of the figure is ...
shaded area = trapezoid area - rectangle area
= 40 - 6 = 34 . . . square units
The hotel is $250 plus $25 per person so the equation would be
y= 25x + 250
(Y is the total cost and x is the number of people)
the restaurant is $100 plus $40 per person so the equation would be
y = 40x + 100
What we want to know is which x value would make the y values equal to each other. So you can just replace the "y" in one equation with the other equation:
25x + 250 = 40x + 100
and then solve...
1. subtract 100 from both sides
25x + 150 = 40x
2. subtract 25x from both sides
150 = 15 x
3. divide both sides by 15
10 = x
you can check by plugging 10 into the original equations
25(10) + 250
250 + 250 = 500
and
40(10) + 100
400 + 100 = 500
they both cost $500 when you invite 10 people
Thanks for including the graph!
Okay, so -
From examining the graph, we can see that for every minute the number of words increases by 40.
Now, since the x axis (the horizontal thingy kabob at the bottom) is time, and the y axis (the vertical thingy kabob) is the number of words - we can conclude that the answer is B!
Just remember that the value of the y axis is dependent on the value of the x axis. Also, note that x almost always represents time!
