Answer:
3 toppings for a total of $6.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the information provided we can calculate the cost of a yogurt using the following equations for both Froyo Express (F) and The Big Chill (B) , where the variable x represents the number of toppings...
F = 5.75 + 0.25x
B = 2.75 + 1.25x
Now that we have both equations we can simply make one equal to the other and solve for x in order to calculate at what number of toppings the prices will be the same...
5.75 + 0.25x = 2.75 + 1.25x ... subtract 2.75 and 0.25x on both sides
3 = 1x ... divide both sides by 1
3 = x
Finally, we can see that at 3 toppings the total cost of both stores will be the same at $6.50
If B is the midpoint of AC, that means that the distances from A to B and B to C are the same. The distance from A to B is 8x + 4, and the distance from B to C is 10x - 6, so we can set these two equivalent:
8x + 4 = 10x - 6
Solving for x:
4 = 2x - 6 (subtract 8x from both sides)
10 = 2x (add 6 to both sides)
5 = x (divide both sides by 2)
So, x = 5, which is the second option given.
The equation of a line that passes through (x1,y1) and has a slope of m is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
find slope
slope between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(-3,2) and (2,1)
slope=(1-2)/(2-(-3))=(-1)/(2+5)=-1/5
pikc a point
if we pick (-3,2)
(x1,y1)
x1=-3
y1=2
y-2=-1/5(x-(-3))
y-2=-1/5(x+3)
that is D
