Answer:

slope = $50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation, y = mx + b:

The slope (m) is the rate of change for every<em> x </em>number of labor hours. What this implies is that whenever the input (x-value) or the number of labor hours increases or decreases, the value of y (total cost) will increase by the given slope value.

Slope: The painting company charges $50 for every 1 hour of labor.

The y-intercept (b) represents the flat rate or initial value. In the given problem, it states that the company charges $500 for supplies. This means that regardless of whether the company finishes working on the painting job, they will charge their customers the flat rate.

Combined, the linear equation will be:

y = 50x + 500

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a quartic trinomial because its has a fourth degree variable in the expression and only 3 variables in the equation.

2x⁴ - x + 5.

Linear trinomials have 1 degree 3 variables in the monomial. Eg x + y + 2 = 0 is an example of a linear trinomial.

Cubic trinomials have 3 degree and 3 variables in the equation eg = 5x³ + 2x + 1 = 0

Quadratic trinomials is the most common trinomial we deal with everyday eg Ax² + bx + c = 0

Hat is the slope of the linear relationship shown in this table of values?
dlinn [17]

By using any two of the points in the table, we will see that the slope is -2.

<h3>How to get the slope for the linear relationship?</h3>

A general linear relationship is:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Remember that if the line passes through (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), the slope is:

a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Here we can use the first two points on the table:

(-4, 11) and (2, -1), so the slope is:

a = \frac{11 - (-1)}{-4 - 2}  =  12/-6 = -2

Then the slope of the line is -2.

I don’t understand! help!
Ksju [112]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

These angles are alternate interior angles and m is parallel to n, so they're congruent, meaning that they're equal!

So we can make our equation:

6x - 2 = 46

6x = 48

x = 8

Hope this helps!
