Answers:
1. The n-intercept is 12. That means after 12 visits the amount of money on the gift car is $0.
2. The A(n)-intercept is 150. Before the visits, the amount of money on the gift car is $150.
Solution:
Amount of money on the gift card after n number of visits: A(n)=$150-$12.50 n
A(n)=150-12.50 n
1. n-intercept
A(n)=0→150-12.50 n =0
Solving for n: Subtracting 150 both sides of the equation:
150-12.50 n-150 = 0-150
-12.50 n = -150
Dividing both sides of the equation by -12.50:
(-12.50 n) / (-12.50) = (-150) / (-12.50)
n=12
The n-intercept is n=12; for n=12→A(12)=0. Point (n, A(n))=(12,0)
2. A(n) intercept
n=0→A(0)=150-12.50 (0)
A(0)=150-0
A(0)=150
The A(n) intercept is 150; for n=0→A(0)=150. Point (n, A(n))=(0,150)
Answer:Question? :c
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the slope of the given line:
4x +2y = 1
Subtract 4x from each side:
2y = -4x + 1
Divide both sides by 2:
y = -2x +1/2
The slope is -2.
Now use the slope to find the y-intercept. Because the line is perpendicular, you need to use the negative inverse of the slope.
The negative inverse of -2 is 1/2
Now using the point-slope form y - y1 = m(x-x1)
Use the inverse slope for m, and the given point(-4,3) to get:
y - 3 = 1/2(x+4)
Simplify:
y - 3 = x/2 +2
Add 3 to each side:
y = x/2 + 5
Reorder the terms to get y = 1/2x +5
The answer is D.
