F(x) = 5(x - 3) + 1
Find slope by using the vertex point and the other point given. You get 5. Then the vertex point is just the opposite x and the number after the parentheses.
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
She will need a one to one ratio so to get to your ratio you need to take your 3 to 1 ratio and divide it by the 1 on 1 ratio
1. The problem indicates that 300 pounds of oranges were purchased at $0.24 per pound, so the cost is:
300x$0.24=$72
2. A percent of 21% spoilage is expected, which means that 89% of 300 pounds of oranges left, is:
300x0.89=267 pounds of oranges
3. We want to calculate the selling price per pound of 267 pounds of oranges, so let's call this value "x":
Markup %=(Markup/cost)x100
Markup=267x-72
4. The desired markup, based on selling price, is 50%. So, when we substitute the values, we obtain:
(267x-72/72)x100=50
5. Let's clear the "x":
(26700x-7200/72)=50
26700x-7200=50x72
26700x-7200=3600
26700x=3600+7200
x=10800/26700
x=$0.40
x=40 cents
What should the selling price per pound be?
The answer is: 40 cents or $0.40
Answer:
y=1/4x
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
m=1/4
so, y=1/4x+b
Now, look at our line's equation so far: . b is what we want, the 1/4 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the the point (4,1).
So, why not plug in for x the number 4 and for y the number 1? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the point you gave!.
(4,1). y=mx+b or 1=1/4 × 4+b, or solving for b: b=1-(1/4)(4). b=0.
y=1/4x+0
