<em>Here we are required to determine the initial monthly fee charged by the electric company.</em>

The initial fee charged by the electric company is; C = $10

To solve this, we need to evaluate the slope and intercepts of the equation of the straight line graph of the relation.

y = mx + c.

  • where m = slope of the relation.

  • and c = <em>intercept = the initial fee charged by the electric company</em>.

  • y = <em>Monthly charge at each time</em>.

  • x = Usage

To find the slope;

  • m = (y2 - y1)/(X2 - x1)

  • m = (28 -22)/(150 - 100)

  • m = 6/50

  • m = 0.12.

By substituting m into the equation y = mx + c, alongside a pair of values of usage and monthly charge, we can obtain the intercept, c (i.e the initial fee charged).

Therefore, m = 0.12 , y = 82 and X = 600;

we then have;

  • 82 = 0.12(600) + c.

  • C = 82 -72

  • C = $10.

Therefore, the initial fee charged by the electric company is; C = $10.

Factor the perfect square trinomial y2 + 20y + 100.
klemol [59]

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the factors of 100 then

y2 + 20y +100

y2 +10y + 10y +100

y ( y + 10) + 10(y + 10)

So the factor is ( y + 10)

Option C is the correct answer

Find the area of the figure. Use 3.14 for π.
siniylev [52]

Answer:

Area of the figure= 51.5feet^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the figure=Area of the middle rectangle+ Area the the two triangles

Area of the rectangle=Length*Width

Length= 8+3 =11 feet\\\\Width=4 feet

Area = 11*4\\\\      =44 feet^2

Area of the triangle with the height of 2 feet and base= 3 feet

Area= \frac{1}{2} *Base*Height

==\frac{1}{2} *3*2\\\\=\frac{1}{2}*6\\\\ =3 feet^2

Area of the triangle with the Height=3 feet and Base= 3 feet

Area= \frac{1}{2} *Base*Height

=\frac{1}{2}*3*3\\\\ =\frac{1}{2}*9\\\\ =4.5feet^2

Total Area of the figure=44+3+4.5=51.5 feet^2
