The graph shows a proportional relationship between the number of kilometers traveled by a bicycle (y) and the number of minutes
yaroslaw [1]

The unit rate of the bicycle is 0.3 kilometers per minute.

<h3>Linear equation</h3>

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the y intercept (initial value of y).

Let y represent the km travelled by the bicycle after x minutes. From the graph using the point (0, 0) and (40, 12), hence:

Unit rate (m) = (12 - 0)/(40 - 0) = 0.3 km/min

The unit rate of the bicycle is 0.3 kilometers per minute.

A publisher needs to send many books to a local book retailer and will send the books in a combination of small and large boxes.
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Answer:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

.

Where xx is the number of small boxes sent and yy is the number of large boxes sent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be xx the number of small boxes sent and yy the number of large boxes sent.

Since each small box can hold 20 books (20x20x ), each large box can hold 30 books (30y30y )and altogether can hold a total of 280 books, we can write the following equation to represent this:

20x+30y=28020x+30y=280

According to the information provided in the exercise, there were 4 times as many large boxes sent as small boxes. This can be represented with this equation:

y=4xy=4x

Therefore, the system of equation that be used to determine the number of small boxes sent and the number of large boxes sent, is:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

A community bird-watching society makes and sells simple bird feeders to raise money for its conservation activities. The materi
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

N(x) = 40 - 2x

P(x) = -2x² + 52 x - 240

maximum profit = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

feeder cost = $6

average sell = 20 per week

price = $10 each

solution

we consider here price per feeder = x

and profit per feeder  id here formula   = x - 6

so that here

total profit will be

P (x)  = ( x - 6 ) Nx

here N(x) is number of feeders sold at price =  x

so formula for N (x)  is here

N(x) = 20 - 2 ( x - 10 )    

N(x) = 40 - 2x

so that

P(x) = (x-6) ( 40 - 2x)

P(x) = -2x² + 52 x - 240

since here

a = -2

b = 52

c = -240

a < 0

so quadratic function have maximum value of c - \frac{b^2}{4a}

so it will be

maximum value = -240 - \frac{52^2}{4(-2)}

maximum value = 98

so here maximum profit attained at

x = \frac{-b}{2a}

x = \frac{-52}{2(-2)}

x = 13

maximum profit = 13

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

f(x) = (x + 2) (x − 5) (x − 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x − (-2)) (x − 5) (x − 6)

f(x) = (x + 2) (x − 5) (x − 6)
