A plumber charges of fee of $75 to make a house call. He also charges $50 per hour for labor.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

For part 1- y=50x+75 For part 2- y=325

Step-by-step explanation:

the cost is increasing 50 for every hour

there is a flat rate of 75 to answer a house call

y=50x+75

y=50(5)+75

y=250+75

y=325

Mary used Delicious (d) and Golden Delicious (g) apples to make homemade applesauce. Delicious apples are $0.75 each and Golden

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Mary bought 9 Golden Delicious apples

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved by setting up a system of equations. Based on the information given, the equations would be set up as follows.

$.75d+1.25g=21.00\\d+g=22$

I prefer to solve using substitution, but elimination can be used as well

$.75d+1.25g=21.00\\g=22-d$

We can now plug in this g value to the first equation

$.75d + 1.25 (22-d)=21.00\\.75d + 27.5-1.25d=21\\27.5-0.5d=21\\-.5d=-6.5\\d=13$

This means mary bought 13 delicious apples. She bought 22 apples in total, so the total number minus the amount of delicious apples will give us the amount of golden delicious apples.

22 - 13 = g

9 = g

Answer: $y-1=\dfrac32(x+3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line passes through (a,b) and (c,d) = $\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}$

In graph(below) given line is passing through (-2,-4) and (2,2) .

Slope of the given line passing through (-2,-4) and (2,2) = $\dfrac{-4-2}{-2-2}=\dfrac{-6}{-4}=\dfrac{3}{2}$

Since parallel lines have equal slope . That means slope of the required line would be .

Equation of a line passing through (a,b) and has slope m is given by :_

(y-b)=m(x-a)

Then, Equation of a line passing through(-3, 1) and has slope = is given by

$(y-1)=\dfrac32(x-(-3))\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-1=\dfrac32(x+3)$

Required equation: $y-1=\dfrac32(x+3)$

Graph the line with slope −1/2 and y-intercept −5.

Allushta [10]

First, we can write the equation of the line using the information provided:

$\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ where: \\ m=slope=-\frac{1}{2} \\ b=y-intercept=-5 \\ so: \\ y=-\frac{1}{2}x-5 \end{gathered}$

Now, we can create a table:

Finally, we can graph the line:
