Answer:
y + 7 = -1/4(x - 4)
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Algebra I</u>
Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
- x₁ - x coordinate
- y₁ - y coordinate
- m - slope
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
Slope <em>m</em> = -1/4
Point (4, -7)
<u>Step 2: Write Function</u>
y + 7 = -1/4(x - 4)
Answer:
Option (d) is wrong.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is:
- rise over run
- The rate of change of a line
- Change in y over the change in x
- <em><u>The ratio of vertical change to the horizontal change. </u></em>
It can be given by mathematically as follows :

Hence, the option which is not a description of slope is (d) "the ratio of horizontal change compared to vertical change"
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: a) c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1, b) 13 units
Step-by-step explanation: Revenue function = R(x) = 0.21x
Profit function = p(x) = 0.086 - 1.1
Cost function = c(x) =?
A)
Recall that profit = total revenue - total cost
Hence, total cost = total revenue - profit
c(x) = 0.21x - (0.086x - 1.1)
c(x) = 0.21x - 0.086x + 1.1
c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1
B)
Break even point is the point where total revenue equals total cost
R(x) = c(x)
0.21x = 0.124x + 1.1
0.21x - 0.124x = 1.1
0.086x = 1.1
x = 1.1/0.086
x = 12.79 which is approximately 13 units
