Answer:
Equation: $3500+$225s=c
To transport 16 tons of sugar the Sugar Sweet Company will need $7100
Step-by-step explanation:
Notes:
$3500 to rent truck
$225 for each ton of sugar
S is sugar in tons
C is total
Truck is a set cost so you leave it alone
Sugar in the truck is $225 each ton in this case its 16 tons
$3500+$225S=C
Plug in: $3500+$225(16)=C
$3500+$3600=C
C=$7100
Important: If you're discussing squares, please express "the square of x" as x^2 (not as x2).
Please note that your y=x^2+3 is NOT a line. I will assume (probably incorrectly!) that you meant y=2x+3. The slope of this line is 2, so the slope of any line perpendicular to y=2x+3 is -1/2.
Now use the point-slope equation of a straight line:
y-8 = (-1/2)(x-1) (answer)
The answer would be A. 3 1/2.
Explanation
First find a common denominator, which would be 6. You times the top number the same amount of times you times the bottom number to get the common denominator, so now it's 1 4/6 + 1 5/6 now you add, 1+1=2, now you need to add 4 and 5 together, bc they are the top numbers of the fraction. That would be 9 so now the problem is 2 9/6, now we simplify the fraction so that it is 3 3/6 now that simplifies into 1/2 so the answer is 3 1/2
