Answer:

The rate at which how many tokens a person loses per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we move around the terms in the equation to fit standard form, it will be easier to determine the slope.

y = 50 - 2x

y = -2x + 50

We know that the slope is the coefficient of the x variable, so m = -2 or \frac{-2}{1}.

Since the slope is negative, we know that the line will go down as x increases.  Since the slope is multiplied by the number of minutes x, we know that the slope represents the typical rate at which a guest spends tokens per minute. In simpler words, how many tokens a person loses every minute.

Lori creates the following design for a T-shirt.
kakasveta [241]

<u>Solution-</u>

From the figure,

AE = 2.4

EB = 2.8

BC = 11.7


Area of rectangle 1 = 8.68 sq.in

\Rightarrow FH \times HI=8.68

\Rightarrow EB \times HI=8.68  (∵ sides of the rectangle 2)

\Rightarrow 2.8 \times HI=8.68

\Rightarrow HI=3.1


Area of Triangle 1 = 6.48 sq.in

\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\times AE \times EG= 6.48

\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\times AE \times (EF+FG)= 6.48

\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\times AE \times (EF+HI)= 6.48  (∵ sides of the rectangle 1)

\Rightarrow EF+3.1= 5.4

\Rightarrow EF=2.3

\Rightarrow BH=2.3  (∵ sides of the rectangle 2)


BC = BH+HI+IC

\Rightarrow 11.7= 2.3+3.1+IC

\Rightarrow IC=6.3


The area of Rectangle 2,

=EB\times BH =2.8\times 2.3=6.44\ sq.in


The area of Triangle 2,

\frac{1}{2}\times GI \times IC=\frac{1}{2}\times EB \times IC=\frac{1}{2}\times 2.8 \times 6.3=8.82\ sq.in


The area of the whole figure = Area of Triangle 1 + Area of rectangle 1 + Area of Triangle 2 + Area of rectangle 2

= 6.48+8.68+8.82+6.44=30.42 sq.in

If u(x) = x5 – x4 + x2 and v(x) = –x2, which expression is equivalent to (StartFraction u Over v EndFraction) (x)?
Maslowich

Based on the calculations, an expression which is equivalent to [u/v](x) is: C. -x³ + x² - 1.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • u(x) = x⁵ – x⁴ + x²
  • v(x) = -x²

<h3>What is an expression?</h3>

An expression is a mathematical equation which is used to show the relationship that exist between two or more numerical quantities or variables.

In this exercise, we would evaluate the given expressions by factorizing the function u(x) as follows:

u(x) = x⁵ – x⁴ + x²

u(x) = x²(x³ – x² + 1)

Rewriting the expressions as a fraction, we have:

\frac{u(x)}{v(x)} = \frac{x^2(x^3 - x^2 + 1)}{-x^2}\\\\\frac{u(x)}{v(x)} = -(x^3 - x^2 + 1)\\\\\frac{u(x)}{v(x)} = -x^3 + x^2 - 1

Therefore, u(x)/v(x) = -x³ + x² - 1.
