What is the set fee, or initial value, of this function

Ber [7]

Answer:
The set fee would be $15

Explanation:
The set fee is the starting value. This means that it is the value of the y at x = 0 (y-intercept).

To get the set fee, we would first need to get the equation of the line.

Equation of the linear line has the following general formula:
y = mx + c
where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

1- getting the slope:
we are given two points which are:
(20,25) and (50,40)
the slope = $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}= \frac{40-25}{50-20} = 0.5$

The equation now is:
y = 0.5x + c

2- getting the value of the y-intercept:
To get the value of the c, we will use any of the given points, substitute in the equation and solve for c.
I will choose the point (20,25)
y = 0.5x + c
25 = 0.5(20) + c
25 = 10 + c
c = 15

The equation of the line representing the scenario is:
y = 0.5x + 15

Now, we know that the value of the c is the y-intercept which is the initial value of the function at x=0.
In our situation, this represents the set fee.

Hope this helps :)

A $16,000 robot depreciates linearly to zero in 10 years. (a) find a formula for its value as a function of time, t, in years.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

We are given, cost of the robot for 0 number of year = $16,000.

0 represents initial time of the robot.

After 10 year cost of the robot is = $0

The problem is about the number of the years and cost of the robot over different number of years.

So, we could take x coordinate by number of hours and y coordinate for y number of hours.

So, from the problem, we could make two coordinates for the given situation.

(x1,y1) = (0, 16000) and (x2,y2) = (10, 0).

In order to find the function of time, we need to find the rate at which robot rate depreciates each year.

Slope is the rate of change.

So, we need to find the slope of the two coordinates we wrote above.

We know, slope formula

$Slope (m) = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Plugging values in formula, we get

$m=\frac{0-16000}{10-0} = \frac{-16000}{-10} = -1600.$

Brecasue of depreciation we got a negative number for slope or rate of change.

Therefore, rate of depreciation is $1600 per year.

We already given inital cost, that is $16,000.

So, we can setup an a function

f(x) = -1600x + 16000.

But the problem is asked to take the variable t for time.

Replacing x by t, we get

f(t) = -1600t + 16000.

At the start of the diet keirin weighted 14 stone 13 pounds three months later he weighted 13 stone 10 pounds there are 14 pound

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The amount of weight he has lost in 3 months is 1.215 stone or 1 stone 3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we are to calculate the amount of weight he has lost in three months

1 stone = 14 pounds

Let's convert all the weight lost to stone

At the start of the diet keirin weighted 14 stone 13 pounds

14 pounds = 1 stone

13 pounds = x

Cross Multiply

14x = 13

x = 13/14

x = 0.9285714286 stone

Approximately = 0.929 stone

Hence:

14 stone 13 pounds = 14 + 0.929 = 14.929 stone

Three months later he weighted 13 stone 10 pounds

14 pounds = 1 stone

10pounds = x

Cross Multiply

14x = 10

x = 10/14

x = 0.7142857143 stone

Approximately = 0.714 stone

Hence:

13 stone 10 pounds = 13 + 0.714 = 13.714 stone

The amount of weight he has lost is calculated as:

14.929 stone - 13.714 stone = 1.215 stone or 1 stone 3 pounds

If someone can please answer the question in the picture thatd be great

Ann [662]

Answer:

≈ 20.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle is formed between the wall, the ground and the ladder.

The ladder is the hypotenuse , the wall and ground are the legs.

let h be the height of the wall, then using Pythagoras' identity

h² + 33² = 39²

h² + 1089 = 1521 ( subtract 1089 from both sides )

h² = 432 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = $\sqrt{432}$ ≈ 20.8 ft ( to the nearest tenth )
