Paula knows the total cost for 100 students will be $750, and the cost total cost for 150 students is $1050. What is the caterer

’s fixed cost and the rate per student served?
Mathematics

Roman55 [17]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

the price charged for 100 students reflects the cost per student that applies to the order as a whole.

100 * 6 = $600, so the fixed cost is 750-600 = 150.

...

We can check this by substituting in the other equation.

Does 150*6 + 150 = 1050?

150*6=900

900+150 = 1050.

Yes, it does

...

We can express this relationship by the equation:

y = mx + b

where

y = total cost

m = $6 per student

x = number of students

b = fixed costs = 150

y = 6x + 150

Which number completes the system of linear
LiRa [457]

The number that completes the System of Linear Inequalities represented by the Graph y >= 2x – 2 and x + 4y > =  is -12. Hence, x + 4y \geq -12

<h3>What is a System of Linear Inequalities?</h3>

A collection of linear inequalities in the same variables is referred to as a system of linear inequalities. Any ordered pair that fulfills all of the inequalities is the solution.

<h3>What is the calculation to prove the above assertion?</h3>

Recall that:

  • The linear equation with slope m and intercept c is given as follows.

y = mx + c

  • The formula for slope of line with points  and  can be expressed as

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Given that

The orange line intersects y-axis at (0,-2), therefore the y-intercept is -2.

The orange line intersect the points that are (1,0)  and (0, -2).

The slope of the line can be obtained as follows:

m = (-2-0)/(0-1)

= -2/-1

= 2

The slope of the line is m = 2.

Therefore, the orange line is y \geq 2x -2

The blue line intersects y-axis at (0,-3), therefore the y-intercept is -3.

The blue line intersect the points that are (-4, -2) and  (0, -3)

The slope of the line can be obtained as follows.

m = (-3-(-2))/(0-(-4))

= (-3 + 2)/4

= - (1/4)

The slope of the line is:
m = -(1/4)

The inequalities is x + 4y \geq b passes through the point (0, -3)

(0) + 4 (-3) = b

-12 =b

Thus, -12 in is the number that completes the system. Hence, x + 4y \geq -12

Someone helpp !! I don’t understand this at all
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

∠AB=9

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>the pyagrothyes therom= </em>a^{2}<em>+</em>b^{2}<em>=</em>c^{2}

<em>to find ∠AB we need to find the height of the triangle.</em>

<em>replace the variables:</em>

a^{2}<em>+</em>6^{2}<em>=</em>9^{2}

<em>=</em>9^{2}<em>-</em>6^{2}<em>=</em>a^{2}

<em>simplify:</em>

<em>81-36=</em>\sqrt{45}

<em>now we solve for ∠AB</em>

<em>replace the variables:</em>

6^{2}<em>+</em>\sqrt{45}<em>=</em>c^{2}

<em>simplify:</em>

<em>36+45=</em>\sqrt{81}

\sqrt{81}<em>=9</em>

I hope this helps you!!

have a nice day!!

The equation of line WX is 2x + y = -5. What is the equation of a line perpendicular to line WX in slope-intercept form that con
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The third choice is the one you want

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are to write the equation of a line perpendicular to WX, we first must determine what the slope of the WX is, because the line perpendicular to WX has a slope that is the flip of the slope of WX with the opposite sign.  Solving for y takes care of finding the slope of WX:

2x + y = -5 so

y = -2x - 5

The slope is -2.  That means that the reciprocal slope is 1/2.  Using that slope along with the coordinates x = -1 and y = -2, we first write the line using point-slope form and then solve it for y.  Start by filling in the m, the x value and the y value:

y - (-2) = \frac{1}{2}(x-(-1))

Getting rid of the double negatives gives us:

y+2=\frac{1}{2}(x+1)

Distributing then gives us:

y+2=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}

And finally solving for y (I am going to express the 2 on the left as 4/2 when I move it by subtraction in order to add those fractions):

y=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{4}{2}

And the final equation in slope-intercept form is:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{3}{2}
