Answer:

3)

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation is linear if equal changes in x produce equal changes in y.

Let's look at each choice.

1)

A decrease of 10% per year. That means each year, the value of the car is 0.9 times the value of the previous year.

For example, if the original value was $10,000, after 1 year, it is worth 0.9 * $10,000 = $9,000. In 1 year it lost $1,000. In the next year, its value is now 0.9 * $9,000. The value at the end of the 2nd year is $8,100. In the second year, it lost $900 in value. In one period of 1 year it lost $1000 in value. In another equal period of 1 year, it lost $900 in value. A change of 1 year in time produces different changes in loss of value, so it is not linear.

2)

Here, the number doubles every year. Let's say it starts with 100 fish. After 5 years, it has 200 fish. In a change of 5 years in x, the change in y is 100. In the next 5 years, it goes from 200 fish to 400 fish. The change in the second period of 5 years is 200. We see that a change of 5 years can produce a change of 100 fish, but another change of 5 years can produce a change is 100 fish. Since for equal changes in x, the changes in y are not all equal, this is not linear.

3)

Here for every change of 1 day in x, the change in y is 2 liters. Each change of 1 in x always produces a change of 2 in y. This is linear.

4)

Each 2 hours, the amount of caffeine is 2/3 of what it was before. This is similar to the choice 1), and it is not linear.

rusak2 [61]

The answer is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Jamie and Stella are saving money to sign up for a school trip to Washington, D.C. In order to sign up for the trip, they must pay $600 upfront. Jamie earns his money by washing cars for $25 each. Stella earns her money by making pecan pies for $15 each. Jamie earns more money than Stella does because Stella only has enough supplies to make 40 pies. let x represent the number of cars Jamie washes. Let y represent the number of pies Stella makes.

Part 1: Write a constraint (an inequality) to represent how much money Jamie needs for his trip.

Part 2: Write a constraint (an inequality) to represent how much money Stella needs for her trip.

Part 3: Write a constraint (an inequality) to represent the limitations of Stella's supplies.

Part 4: Can Stella afford to sign up for the trip with the money she earns? Explain your answer and show any work that might support your answer.

Answer:

Part 1: $25x\geq 600$

Part 2: $15y\geq 600$

Part 3: $y\leq 40$

Part 4: Yes, she makes exactly 600 dollars by making 40 pies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total money needed for the trip is 600 dollars.

Money earnt by Jamie for washing one car is $25.

Money earnt by Stella for making one pie is $15.

Let $x$ represent the number of cars Jamie washes. Let $y$ represent the number of pies Stella makes.

Part 1:

Since the cost for washing one car is $25

Therefore, the cost of washing $x$ cars is $25x$ .

Now, in order to sign up for the trip, money obtained from car washing must be greater than or equal to $600.

Therefore, $25x\geq 600$

Part 2:

Since the cost for making one pie is $15

Therefore, the cost of making $y$ pies is $15y$ .

Now, in order to sign up for the trip, money obtained from pie making must be greater than or equal to $600.

Therefore, $15y\geq 600$

Part 3:

As per the question, the maximum number of pies that Stella can make is 40. So, the value of $y$ can't exceed 40 and must be less than or equal to 40. Therefore,

$y\leq 40$

Part 4:

Now, in order to sign up for the trip, Stella's total earning must be at least $600. So, $15y=600$ is the minimum condition for signing up for the trip. Now, let us solve the above equation for $y$ . This gives,

$15y=600\\y=\frac{600}{15}=40$

Therefore, minimum number of pies required for signing up for the trip is 40 and luckily that's the maximum supply Stella has for pies. Therefore, she can sign up for the trip by making all the 40 pies and earning a total of 600 dollars.

Charlotte’s weekly paycheck is based on the number of hours worked during the week and on the weekend. If she works 13 hours dur

Schach [20]

X: earn per hour during the week
y: earn per hour during the weekend

13x + 14y = 250.90
15x + 8y = 204.70

Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second equation by 7

52x + 56y = 1003.6
105x + 56y = 1432.90

Subtract the first equation from the second:

53x = 429.30

x = 429.30/ 53
x = 8.10

Solve any of the equation for y:

15x + 8y = 204.70

y = [204.70 - 15(8.10)]/8 = 10.40

y - x = 10.40 -8.10 = 2.30

Answer: she earns $2.30 per hour more during the weekend than during the week.
