Answer: Choice A) M = 0.25n + 100

=============================================================

Explanation:

For now, I'll treat n as x, and M as y.

In other words,

  • x = number of CDs
  • y = total mass in kg

Let's select two points from this graph. I'll pick (200,150) and (400,200)

The slope of the line through those points is

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

m = (200-150)/(400-200)

m = 50/200

m = 0.25

Now we'll use the point (x,y) = (200,150) along with that slope value to find the y intercept b

y = mx+b

150 = 0.25*200+b

150 = 50+b

150-50 = b

100 = b

b = 100

You could also use (x,y) = (400,200) and you should get the same b value.

In fact, any other point from this graph works as well.

------------------------------

Since m = 0.25 and b = 100, we go from y = mx+b to y = 0.25x+100

This then translates over to M = 0.25n + 100 which is choice A

To help verify this, let's say we plugged in n = 100

M = 0.25*n + 100

M = 0.25*100 + 100

M = 25 + 100

M = 125

Which is confirmed by what the graph shows. I'll let you check the other points as well.

REY [17]

Answer: C is correct, 4x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

You will add the two equations...

4x-8=0

Now you need to move the -8 over, which reverses its sign to positive.

4x=8

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Kirk is <u>28</u> years old, Brian is <u>36</u> years old, Matt is <u>18</u> years old, and the manager is <u>24</u> years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k be Kirk's age.

Let b be Brian's age.

Let m be Matt's age.

Let m_{1} be the boss/manager's age.

From the information given, we can set up 4 equations:

k+b+m+m_{1}=106

k=2(m_{1}-10)

b=2m_{1}-12

m=\frac{1}{2}m_{1}+6

Rewrite the first equation, substituting k, b, and m in terms of m_{1} to get:

2(m_{1}-10)+(2m_{1}-12)+(\frac{1}{2}m_{1}+6)+m_{1}=106

Open up the parentheses using the distributive property (which is a(b-c)=ab-ac) and combine like terms to get:

5.5m_{1}-26=106

Add 26 to both sides to reach:

5.5m_{1}=132

Thus, m_{1}=24. Substitute 24 for m_{1} in the second, third, and fourth original equations to find that k=28, b=36, and m=18. Therefore, Kirk is <u>28</u> years old, Brian is <u>36</u> years old, Matt is <u>18</u> years old, and the manager is <u>24</u> years old. To check, you can add up all of the ages to get 106.

Hope this helps :)
