Answer:
2 inches per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/2 hours is equivalent to 150 minutes.
Set up a proportion; let x equal inches of rain
=
Cross multiply -> 150x=300
Divide both sides by 150 to get -> x=2
Answer:
the new monthly plan is $106.25
1.) 35,000+6,000+65+13
2.) 25,000+ 16,000+11,000+78
In both cases you may well benefit from graphing the functions.
Do you recognize f(x) = (x + 1)^2 - 1 as a quadratic function, whose graph is that of a parabola that opens up? By comparing this to y = a(x-h)^2 + k, we see that a=1, h= -1 and k = -1. The vertex is at (h,k), which here is the point (-1, -1). This is the minimum value of the function. Thus, the range of this function is [-1, infinity).
Now for the function f(x) = 7x - 11: This is a linear function whose graph is (surprise!) a straight line. When x increases, y increases, without limits to either. Similarly, when x decreases, y decreases.
Thus the range includes all real numbers: (-infinity, infinity).
