8 0

Answer:

x = 20

y = 7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

12/x = 9/15

9x = 180

x = 20

12/x= y/12

12/20 = y/12

144 = 20y

y = 7.2

y = 20

Which is the equation of a line that has a slope of -2/3 and passes through point (-3, -1)? y=-2/3x+1.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

y = -2/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write the equation using the slope. It should look like this: y = -2/3x + b. Next, find the y intercept by plugging in the point. This is what it looks like: -1 = -2/3(-3) + b. Multiply -2/3 by -3 to get 2. This is what it should look like now: -1 = 2 + b. Subtract 3 from both sides to get -3 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug in -3 for b. This is your final equation:

y = -2/3x - 3

Hope this helped! :)

The graph of the function P(x) = −0.52x2 + 23x + 92 is shown. The function models the profits, P, in thousands of dollars for a
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

6.84 ≤ x ≤ 37.39

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

P(x)=-0.5x^2+23x+92 -----> equation A

we know that

The company wants to keep its profits at or above $225,000,

so

PXx)\geq 225 -----> inequality B

Remember that P(x) is in thousands of dollars

Solve the system by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solution is the interval [6.78,39.22]

see the attached figure

therefore

A reasonable constraint for the model is

6.84 ≤ x ≤ 37.39

Authur earned $136 in three weeks. He goes back to school in one more week. He needs at least $189 to buy the new coat that he w
Nady [450]

Answer:

136+ m ≥ 189 is the required inequality : m: The earning in 4th week

Arthur needs to earn AT LEAST $53 in the fourth week to buy the coat which costs at least $189.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount earned by Arthur in first 3 weeks = $136

The amount needed to buy a coat = AT LEAST $189

Let us assume the amount Arthur needs to earn more to buy  coat = $m

⇒ $ 136 + Amount Earned in 4th week  ≥ $189

⇒ 136+ m ≥ 189

The above equation is the NEEDED inequality of the given situation.

Now, solving for the value of m, we get:

136+ m ≥ 189

⇒  m ≥ 189 - 136 = 53

or, m ≥ $53

Hence, Arthur needs to earn AT LEAST $53 in the fourth week to buy the coat which costs at least 189.
