Answer:

4.4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hours = x

Ida needs to hire a singer for her wedding.

For Singer A

Singer A is offering his services for an initial $65 in addition to $13.15 per hour.

65 + 13.15x

Singer B

Singer B is offering her services for an initial $73 in addition to $11.35 per hour.

73 + 11.35x

We equate both singers together

Singer A = Singer B

65 + 13.15x = 73 + 11.35x

We collect like terms

13.15x - 11.35x = 73 - 65

1.8x = 8

x = 8/1.8

x = 4.4444444444 hours

Approximately = 4.4 hours

The two singers will charge the same amount of money after 4.4 hours

Devon wants to write an equation for a line that passes through 2 of the data points he has collected. The points are (8, 5) and
Svetlanka [38]
(8,5)(-12,-9)
slope = (-9 - 5) / (-12 - 8) = -14/-20 = 7/10

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 7/10
use either of ur points.....(8,5)....x = 8 and y = 5
now we sub and find b, the y int
5 = 7/10(8) + b
5 = 56/10 + b
5 - 56/10 = b
50/10 - 56/10 = b
-3/5 = b

so ur equation is : y = 7/10x - 3/5.....now we put it in standard form

y = 7/10x - 3/5...multiply by 10
10y = 7x - 6.....subtract 7x
-7x + 10y = -6....multiply by -1
7x - 10y = 6

So.....7x - 10y = 3.... IS NOT a good model. Because ur points are not a solution to ur equation.

At Computer Central, the cost of renting a computer is $45 plus $35 per day. The total cost can be represented by the equation y
Thepotemich [5.8K]
Simple, since your equation is y=35x+45, it's quite simple to see what is the y-intercept.
It's written in y=mx+b form, the b being the y-intercept.

Thus, your y-intercept, is 45.

HELLPP. ITS URGENT.50 PTS
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

  • 4x² - 13x + 8 = 0
  • 4x² - 11x + 5 = 0
  • 16x² - 41x + 1 = 0
  • x² + 5x + 4 = 0
  • x² - 66x + 64 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • α and β are roots of 4x²-5x-1=0

<u>Then the sum and product of the roots are:</u>

  • α+b = -(-5)/4 = 5/4
  • αβ = -1/4

(i) <u>Roots are α + 1 and β + 1, then we have:</u>

  • (x - (α + 1))(x - (β + 1)) = 0
  • (x - α - 1)(x - β - 1) = 0
  • x² - (α+β+2)x + α+β+ αβ + 1 = 0
  • x² - (5/4+2)x +5/4 - 1/4 + 1 = 0
  • x² - 13/4x + 2= 0
  • 4x² - 13x + 8 = 0

(ii) <u>Roots are 2 - α and 2 - β, then we have:</u>

  • (x + α - 2)(x + β - 2) = 0
  • x² + (a + β - 4)x - 2(α + β) + αβ + 4 = 0
  • x² + (5/4 - 4)x - 2(5/4) - 1/4 + 4 = 0
  • x² - 11/4x - 10/4 - 1/4 + 16/4 = 0
  • x² - 11/4x + 5/4x = 0
  • 4x² - 11x + 5 = 0

(iii) <u>Roots are α² and β², then:</u>

  • (x - α²)(x-β²) = 0
  • x² -(α²+β²)x + (αβ)² = 0
  • x² - ((α+β)² - 2αβ)x + (-1/4)² = 0
  • x² - ((5/4)² -2(-1/4))x + 1/16 = 0
  • x² - ( 25/16 + 1/2)x + 1/16 = 0
  • x² - 33/16x + 1/16 = 0
  • 16x² - 33x + 1 = 0

(iv) <u>Roots are 1/α and 1/β, then:</u>

  • (x - 1/α)(x - 1/β) = 0
  • x² - (1/α+1/β)x + 1/αβ = 0
  • x² - ((α+β)/αβ)x + 1/αβ = 0
  • x² - (5/4)/(-1/4)x - 1/(-1/4) = 0
  • x² + 5x + 4 = 0

(v) <u>Roots are 2/α² and 2/β², then:</u>

  • (x - 2/α²)(x - 2/β²) = 0
  • x² - (2/α² + 2/β²)x + 4/(αβ)² = 0
  • x² - 2((α+β)² - 2αβ)/(αβ)²)x + 4/(αβ)² = 0
  • x² - 2((5/4)² - 2(-1/4))/(-1/4)²x + 4/(-1/4)² = 0
  • x² - 2(25/16 + 8/16)/(1/16)x + 4(16) = 0
  • x² - 2(33)x + 64 = 0
  • x² - 66x + 64 = 0
