Answer:

slope: cost per mile
y-intercept: fixed base cost

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. The problem statement tells you that x is the number of miles driven, and y is the rental cost.

When the number of miles driven is zero, the rental cost is ...

y = 2.25×0 +70

y = 70

The cost of renting the truck is $70 when it isn't driven anywhere. The y-intercept ($70) is the basic, fixed cost of truck rental.

If x=1 (1 mile driven), then 2.25 is added to the cost of the truck rental. The slope (2.25) is the cost per mile driven. (That mileage cost is added to the basic rental cost.)

Simplify the following expression -5[(x^3+1)(x+4)]

katrin [286]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-5[ (x³+1)(x+4) ] = -5[ x³*(x+4) + 1*(x+4) ]

= -5 [ x³*x + x³*4 + 1*x + 1*4 ]

= -5 [ x⁴ + 4x³ + x + 4]

= -5*x⁴ + (-5)*4x³ + (-5)*x + (-5) * 4

= -5x⁴ - 20x³ - 5x - 20

The scatter plot below shows the relationship between the diameter (x), in mm, and mass f(x), in grams, of a berry: ordered pair

ivann1987 [24]

For this case the first thing we must observe is that the mass increases 0.4 grams when the diameter increases 1 millimeter.
Therefore, the slope of the line is given by:
m = 0.4
Thus, the function that best suits the table is given by:
f (x) = -4 + 0.4x
For example, for x = 20 we have:
f (20) = -4 + 0.4 (20)
f (20) = -4 + 8
f (20) = 4
The result, matches the table.
Answer:
The function that is best represented by the scatter plot is:
f (x) = -4 + 0.4x

What is the value of the x variable in the solution to the following system of equations? 4x − 3y = 3 5x − 4y = 3

andrew-mc [135]

Solve 4x − 3y = 3 and 5x − 4y = 3

Step 1: Solve for x in 4x-3y=3:
4x-3y=3
4x-3y+3y=3+3y [Add 3y to both sides]
4x=3y+3
 $\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{3x+3}{4}$ [Divide both sides by 4]
x= $\frac{3}{4}y+ \frac{3}{4}$

Step 2: Substitute $\frac{3}{4}y+ \frac{3}{4}$ for x in 5x-4y=3
5x-4y=3
5( $\frac{3}{4}y+ \frac{3}{4}$ )-4y=3
 $\frac{-1}{4}y+ \frac{15}{4} =3$
$\frac{-1}{4}y+ \frac{15}{4} - \frac{15}{4} =3- \frac{15}{4}$ [Subtract $\frac{15}{4}$ to both sides]
$\frac{-1}{4}y= \frac{-3}{4}$
$\frac{ \frac{-1}{4}y}{ \frac{-1}{4} }= \frac{\frac{-3}{4} }{ \frac{-1}{4}}$ [Divide both sides by $\frac{-1}{4}$ ]
y = 3

Step 3: Substitute 3 for y in x = $\frac{3}{4}y+ \frac{3}{4}$
$\frac{3}{4}y+ \frac{3}{4}$
$\frac{3}{4}(3)+ \frac{3}{4}$
x = 3
