Answer:
car cost 19400
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 5000 + 300*m where m is the number of months.
m = 48
y = 5000 + 300*48
y = 5000 + 14400
y = 19400
The cost of the car is 19400
The answer to this question is 17/20.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a relationship between lines that are perpendicular. Their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. Example: if one line has a slope of 4/3 then a line with the slope of -3/4 is perpendicular to it (they intersect at right angles).
So to find the slope of a line perpendicular to y = -2/3x + 4 we must know the slope of it. The slope, when the line is in the slope-intercept form (aka y = mx + b), is the multiplier in front of the "x" so in this case it is -2/3. So a line perpendicular to it has a slope of 3/2.
Now that we know the slope (m = 3/2) we can find the equation of the line that has a slope of 3/2 but goes through the point (-2, -2) in a couple of ways.
1) Use the slope-intercept form of a line and plug in the values of x = -2 and y = -2 (from the point (-2, -2) like this:
y = mx + b
y = 3/2x + b
-2 = 3/2(-2) + b
-2 = -3 + b
1 = b
So y = 3/2x + 1
2) We can use the point-slope equation y - y1 = m(x - x1) which works great if you know the value of m (we do, m = 3/2) and some point (x1, y1) on the line (and we do, (-2, -2); so x1 = -2 and y1 = -2):
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - y1 = 3/2(x - x1)
y - (-2) = 3/2(x - (-2))
y + 2 = 3/2(x + 2)
Although it looks different than the other equation, it is really the same. Just distribute and combine like-terms and you'll see it's the same. So either is an acceptable answer for this quest
Jake:
Mon- 4 boxes
End of the week- 3x the boxes on Mon
3 x 4 = 12
Sally:
Mon- 2 boxes
End of the week- 4x the boxes on Mon
4 x 2 = 8
12 + 8 = 20 boxes total
