A school system is reducing the amount of dumpster loads of trash removed each week. In week 5, there were 60 dumpster loads of

waste removed. In week 10, there were 40 dumpster loads removed. Assume that the reduction in the amount of waste each week is linear. Write an equation in function form to show the amount of trash removed each week.
f(x) = −4x + 60
f(x) = 4x + 60
f(x) = −4x + 80
f(x) = 4x + 80

Answer:

f(x) = -4x + 80

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given two points,

(5, 60) and (10, 40)

in order to get the equation, let's use the form slope-intercept form

m = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2)

m = (60 - 40) / (5 - 10)

m = 20/-5

m = -4

Get the x intercept

y = mx + b

60 = (-4)(5) + b

b = 60+20

b = 80

so the equation is

y = -4x + 80

f(x) = -4x + 80

Nady [450]
I am pretty sure the answer is 3.5.

(2+x)5=11

(2+x)=11/5

(2+x)= 5.5

x= 5.5-2

x= 3.5

A shoe store is having a sale. A pair of sandals has an original price of $42. They are on sale for 30% off the original price.
professor190 [17]
30% of 42 is 12.6$.
42-12.6 = 29.4$ is the price of the pair with discount applied.
Tax 7%
29.4 * 7% = 2.06
29.4$ + 2.06$ = 31.46 $ final price with discount and tax applied.

What are the coefficients in the expression x-3y-7xy+4?
IRINA_888 [86]

The coefficients in the expression x-3y-7xy+4 is -3 and -7.

The coefficient of x are 1

-3y=3

-7xy=-7

What is coefficients?

A coefficient is a number or quantity that is associated with a variable. Typically, it is an integer multiplied by the variable and written next to it. The variables which do not have a number with them are assumed to be having 1 as their coefficient. For example, 3 is the coefficient of x in the expression 3x, but 1 is the coefficient of x2 in the expression x2 + 3. A coefficient, in other words, is a multiplicative factor in terms of a polynomial, a series, or any expression. Consider the following expression, which shows that 5 is the x2 coefficient and 8 is the y coefficient.
