Answer:

y = 8x

Step-by-step explanation:

When the number of people increased by 10, the caterer charged an additional $80. Therefore, we estimate that the cost per person is $8. In order to verify:

$8/person * 15 people = $120. True. $8/person * 25 people = $200. True.

Therefore, if we let x represent the number of people being cater for and y represent the cost, the equation to model the situation is simply y = 8x.

hope it helps!

Determine whether or not F is a conservative vector field. If it is, find a function f such that F = ∇f. (If the vector field is

gavmur [86]

$\nabla f=(ye^x+\sin y)\,\vec\imath+(e^x+x\cos y)\,\vec\jmath$

then

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=ye^x+\sin y\implies f(x,y)=ye^x+x\sin y+g(y)$

Differentiating with respec to $y$ gives

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=e^x+x\cos y=e^x+x\cos y+g'(y)$

$\implies g'(y)=0\implies g(y)=C$

So $F$ is indeed conservative, and

$f(x,y)=ye^x+x\sin y+C$

Solve for (y)(x)<br> x-y=1<br> 1/2x+y=5

TEA [102]

Using addition

x-y+1/2x+y=1+5
x+1/2x+0y=6
3/2x=6
$\frac{3}{2}x=6$
3x=12
x=4

Using the value of x
x-y=1
4-y=1
y=3

With x as 4 and y as 3, their product is 12
And can be written as (4,3)
