Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1
get into y=mx+b form
minus 15x both sides and divide by -5
y=3x-7/5
slope is 3

3 times what=-1?
what=-1/3

so the slope is -1/3

so
y=-1/3x+b
we use the point (0,-4)
x=0 and y=-4
-4=-1/3(0)+b
-4=b

y=(-1/3)x-4 is da equation

Jorge received a 3.1% increase in his pay at work. If he now makes $8.00 per hour, how much was he making before his raise? (Rou

Blababa [14]

Answer:

$7.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount he was making before the raise.

He had an increase of 3.1% of x added to x which resulted in a new salary of $8.00 per hour.

Mathematically:

$(\frac{3.1}{100} * x) + x = 8\\\\0.031x + x = 8\\\\1.031x = 8\\\\=> x = 8 / 1.031$

x = $7.76

He was making $7.76 before the raise.

Find the cost function for the marginal cost function. C(x) =0.06 e 0.08x; fixed cost is $10 C(x)=_______

sashaice [31]

Answer:

The cost function for $C(x) = 0.06\cdot e^{0.08\cdot x}$ is $c(x) = 0.75\cdot e^{0.08\cdot x}+10$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The marginal cost function ( $C(x)$ ) is the derivative of the cost function ( $c(x)$ ), then, we should integrate the marginal cost function to find the resulting expression. That is:
