Step-by-step explanation:
It asks you to choose values for w, the width, and evaluate the equation for each. It describes the constraint "the perimeter of 20 units" The perimeter of a rectangle is the length of all the lines of a regtangle.
Or
2L + 2W = 20 reduce this to simplest for by dividing both sides by 2;
L + W = 10, so the length plus the width is 10. Rearrange it to be W = 10 - L. Values of W can range from 1 to 9. Now sove for a few points in the function.
f(W) = 10W - W^2
3; 10(3) - 3^2 = 30 - 9 = 21.
If we look at the constraint, L = 10 - W, when the width is 3 the length must be 7. The area of a rectangle is L x W, 3 x 7 = 21. That checks against the function.
Solve for additional points.
4; 10(4) - 4^2 = 40 - 16 = 24.
If W is 4 the L is 6 and 4 x 6 = 24
The first thing you would do is substitute the 10 in for 'w' and 535 in for 'c'.
535 = 235 + 30(10)
535 = 185 + 35(10)
Then, you would just solve the equations.
535 = 235 + 30(10)
30(10) = 300
300 + 235 = 535
So the first equation is true, and we know for a fact that Larry's Landscaping charges $535 for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance for 10 weeks.
On to the next equation.
535 = 185 + 35(10)
35(10) = 350
185 + 350 = 535
So, the second equation is true also. And we also know for a fact that Joe's Landscaping charges $535 for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance for 10 weeks.
So, now that we know that they will end up charging the same amount of money for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance, the only answer that fits that is C. The cost for lawn maintenance is the same, $535, for both landscaping companies after 10 weeks.
Hope this helps!
We have been given that Jackson purchases a new car for $48,000. The car's value can be modeled by the following exponential function:
where y represents the car's value and t represents time in years. We are asked to find the decay rate as a percentage.
We know that an exponential decay function is in form
, where,
y = Final value,
a = Initial value,
r = Decay rate in decimal form,
x = time.
Upon comparing our given function
with standard decay function
, we can see that
.
Let us solve for r.



Let us convert 0.24 into percentage.

Therefore, the decay rate is 24%.
