Answer:
A. b(w) = 80w +30
B. input: weeks; output: flowers that bloomed
C. 2830
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Part A:</h3>
For f(s) = 2s +30, and s(w) = 40w, the composite function f(s(w)) is ...
b(w) = f(s(w)) = 2(40w) +30
b(w) = 80w +30 . . . . . . blooms over w weeks
__
<h3>Part B:</h3>
The input units of f(s) are <em>seeds</em>. The output units are <em>flowers</em>.
The input units of s(w) are <em>weeks</em>. The output units are <em>seeds</em>.
Then the function b(w) above has input units of <em>weeks</em>, and output units of <em>flowers</em> (blooms).
__
<h3>Part C:</h3>
For 35 weeks, the number of flowers that bloomed is ...
b(35) = 80(35) +30 = 2830 . . . . flowers bloomed over 35 weeks
s= p+3
(number of sports drinks= s)
(pizza slices= p)
Answer:
y = -4x - 32
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the slope using rise over run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Plug in the points:
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(8 - 4) / (-10 + 9)
4 / -1
= -4
So, the slope is -4. Plug in the slope and a point into y = mx + b, and solve for b:
y = mx + b
4 = -4(-9) + b
4 = 36 + b
-32 = b
Then, plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b
y = -4x - 32 is the equation of the line
