Answer:

y = 1/2x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

-2 - (-5) / 8 - 2

3 / 6

= 1/2

y = 1/2x + b

-5 = 1/2(2) + b

-5 = 1 + b

-6 = b

Find the sum of the series and show your process for finding each term leading to the final sum.

Crazy boy [7]

ANSWER

$\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) = - 9$

EXPLANATION

The given series is

$\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5)$

This series is finite.

The expanded form is

$\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) = ( - 2 \times 3 + 5) + ( - 2 \times 4 + 5) + ( - 2 \times 5 + 5)$

This simplifies to

$\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) = ( - 6 + 5) + ( - 8+ 5) + ( - 10+ 5)$

$\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) = ( - 1) + ( - 3) + ( - 5)$

$\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) = - 9$

The cost in dollars y of producing x computer desks is given by y=80x+6000

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

(100,14000), (200, 22000), (300, 30000)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 80x + 6000 ........ (1) is the equation which gives the cost (y) in dollars for making x number of computer desks.

Let, f(x) = 80x + 6000

So, f(100) = 80 × 100 + 6000 = 14000 {From equation (1)}

So, to produce 100 desks it costs $14000.

Again, f(200) = 80 × 200 + 6000 = 22000 {From equation (1)}

So, to produce 200 desks it costs $22000.

Again, f(300) = 80 × 300 + 6000 = 30000 {From equation (1)}

So, to produce 300 desks it costs $30000.

Then table will be (100,14000), (200, 22000), (300, 30000) (Answer)
