Answer:
The algebraic expression is "y - 7".
Step-by-step explanation:
"7 less" means "- 7", so you're subtracting 7 from y. You then write it as "y - 7".
Answer:
f(x) = 3^x increases steadily on the interval [4,5].
Step-by-step explanation:
This exponential function f(x) = 3^x has a positive base (3) which is larger than 1. Thus, this function continues to increase as x increases, including the case where x increases from 4 to 5.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer I choose in particular is 2
Remark
The line you want is parallel to y = - 2x + 3
That means it has the same slope as the given line. The given line has a slope of -2
y = -2x + b is what you have so far. Now you have to use the point to get b
y = - 100
x = - 100
Solve for b
-100 = -2(-100) + b
-100 = 200 + b Notice the sign change. Two minus's make a plus. Subtract 200 from both sides.
- 100 - 200 = b
- 300 = b
Answer
y = - 2x - 100
Suppose x books are produced by both methods.
Total cost for method 1 = 60346 + 10.5x
Total cost for method 2 = 18682 + 21x
Cost of method 1 = Cost of method 2
60346 + 10.5x = 18682 + 21x
60346 - 18682 = 21x - 10.5x
41664 = 10.5x
x = 41664/10.5
x = 3968
For 3968 books produced the cost by both methods will be the same.
