<h3>Answer: C. It makes less than Plant A.</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

At the 60 day mark, the following number of widgets are produced

Plant A = 300 widgets
Plant B = 100 widgets
Plant C = 200 widgets

The fourth plant makes 150 widgets, which is between B and C

We see that the fourth plant does not make more than Plant A, so we can rule out choice A.

The fourth plant does not make less than Plant B, which allows us to rule out choice B.

The only thing left is choice C. Sure enough, this statement is true since 150 widgets made at the fourth plant is less than 300 made in Plant A. This is why choice C is the answer.

Someone please convert this equation to slope intercept form: 2x - 3y = 6?

IgorLugansk [536]

Slope y-intercept form is: y=mx+b

All you have to do is rearrange the equation:

2x-3y=6
2x=6+3y
2x-6=3y

now divide both sides by 3
(2x/3)-(6/3)=(3y/3)

and it becomes
$y= \frac{2}{3}x-2$ x

Bonus: you can plug in any two values for x and y and you can see both equation gives the same answer!

Consider functions f and g.1 + 12f(1) = 12 + 4. – 12for * # 2 and 7 -64.2 – 16. + 1641 +48for a # -12 Which expression is equal

lisabon 2012 [21]

Given the following functions below,

$\begin{gathered} f(x)=\frac{x+12}{x^2+4x-12}\text{ and} \\ g(x)=\frac{4x^2-16x+16}{4x+48} \end{gathered}$

Factorising the denominators of both functions,

Factorising the denominator of f(x),

$\begin{gathered} f(x)=\frac{x+12}{x^2+4x-12}=\frac{x+12}{x^2+6x-2x-12}=\frac{x+12}{x(x+6)-2(x+6)}=\frac{x+12}{(x-2)(x+6)} \\ f(x)=\frac{x+12}{(x-2)(x+6)} \end{gathered}$

Factorising the denominator of g(x),

$\begin{gathered} g(x)=\frac{4x^2-16x+16}{4x+48}=\frac{4(x^2-4x+4)}{4(x+12)} \\ \text{Cancel out 4 from both numerator and denominator} \\ g(x)=\frac{x^2-4x+4}{x+12}=\frac{x^2-2x-2x+4}{x+12}=\frac{x(x-2)-2(x-2)}{x+12}=\frac{(x-2)^2}{x+12} \\ g(x)=\frac{(x-2)^2}{x+12} \end{gathered}$

Multiplying both functions,

$undefined$

Answer:

$y = \frac{x + 2}{x - 4} \\ xy - 4y = x + 2 \\ xy - x = 4y + 2 \\ x(y - 1) = 4y + 2 \\ x = \frac{4y + 2}{y - 1} \\ \boxed{x = \frac{2(2y + 1)}{y - 1} }$

hope this helps.
