The cost in dollars, y, to participate x days in a bike tour is a linear function. Lin's bike tour is described by the equation

y = 5x + 50. The cost of Max's bike tour is $120 for a 14-day bike tour. If both Lin and Max take 14-day tours, whose bike tour costs less? Lin Max They cost the same amount

Answer:

They cost the same amount

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Lin: y = 5x +50 where x = 14

Max: \$120 for 14 days

Required

Which is less expensive?

Max charges has been given from the question as; $120 for 14 days.

To determine Lin's, we simply substitute 14 for x in y = 5x +50

y = 5  * 14 + 50

y = 70 + 50

y =120

The above result of y shows that Max charges for 14 days is also $120.

<em>Hence, they (Lin and Max) cost the same because they both equal to $120 for 14 days</em>

Which quadratic relation has a y-intercept of 8?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

y = 0.5 (x^2 -2x + 16) has a y-intercept of 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-coordinate of every y-intercept is zero.  To determine which of the four quadratics given here has a y-intercept of 8, we need only substitute 0 for x in each; if the result is 8, we've found the desired quadratic.

O y = 0.5(x + 2)(x + 4) becomes y = 0.5(2)(4) = 4 (reject this answer)

O y = 0.5 (x - 2)(x + 8) becomes y = 0.5(-2)(8) = -8 (reject)

O y = 0.5(x2 -2x - 16) becomes y = 0.5(-16) = -8 (reject)

<em>O y = 0.5 (x2 -2x + 16) becomes y = 0.5(16) = 8 This is correct; that '8' represents the y-intercept (0, 8).</em>

What is the arithmetic sequence in this problem . help plz
adell [148]

Answer:

<u>a(n)=80*(9/10)^(n-1)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

I think u r confused

this sequence is geometric not arithmetic

HOw we know that ??

when we get a common difference  <u>that must Be equal  </u>

d=72-80=-8  not equal to  d=64.8-72=-7.2

So it is not arithmetic

but when we get the common ratio that also must <u>be equal </u>

r=72/80=9/10 equal to   r=64.8/72=9/10

So it is geometric

By using this equation:

a(n)=a*r^(n-1)

and we have <u>a=80 , r=9/10</u>

Then       <u>a(n)=80*(9/10)^(n-1)</u>

<em>I really hope this helps <3</em>

-4(5+n) = -12 need help​
user100 [1]

First, simplify out the brackets:

-20 - 4n = -12

Then, combine like terms by moving the -20 to the other side

-4n = -12 + 20

-4n = 8

Divide by -4 on both sides to isolate the n

n = 8/-4

n = -2
