To mail a letter to Vienna, Austria the post office charges a flat rate of $9.75 and an additional $0.50 for every ounce the let

ter weighs. The cost of mailing a letter is determined by the equation y=0.50x+9.75, where y is the cost of the postage and x is the weight of the letter in ounces.

Missing details

Which type of function model would be appropriate for this situation?

Answer:

Linear function

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = 0.50x +9.75

Required

The function model

A function of the form:

y = mx + b

is referred to as a linear function where

m = slope/rate

b=y\ intercept

By comparison:

m = 0.50\ b = 9.75

<em>So, it is a linear function (linear model)</em>

Karl’s and eddie’s ages added together are equal to 65. 10 years ago, Karl was twice as old as Eddie. How old are they now
trapecia [35]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • Karl is 40
  • Eddie is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

10 years ago, the sum of their ages was 65 -2·10 = 45.

If Karl was twice as old as Eddie, his contribution was 2/3 of the sum and Eddie's was 1/3. That is, Karl was (2/3)(45) = 30 and Eddie was 15 at that time.

Now, Karl is 40 and Eddie is 25.

__

This can be solved using a system of equations.

  e = 65 -k

  (k -10) = 2(e -10)

Substituting the first equation into the second gives ...

  k -10 = 2((65 -k) -10)

  k -10 = 110 -2k . . . . . . . simplify

  3k = 120 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10+2k

  k = 40

  e = 65 -40 = 25

Determine the amplitude of the following function:<br><br>y=−4/5tan(−4x)
laila [671]

Answer:

  ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

In many instances, the term "amplitude" is used to refer to half the range. The range of any tangent function is (-∞, ∞), so its amplitude is ∞ regardless of any multiplier or offset.

__

Perhaps you're expected to say the absolute value of the coefficient of the trig function. In that case, the "amplitude" is 4/5.
