It costs a family of two $25 to go to the state fair, and a family of six $65. Find the equation, rate of change, and initial va
motikmotik

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Family of 2

Cost, C1 = $25

Family of 6

Cost, C2 = $65

Given that 2 points are given above as the following in coordinate form:

A(2,25) and B(6,65)

Rate of change is given as = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

= (65 - 25)/(6-2)

= 40/4

Therefore,

(y - y1)/(x - x1) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

(y - 25)/(65 - 25) = (x - 2)/(6 - 2)

(y - 25)/40 = (x - 2)/4

(y - 25) = 40/4 × (x - 2)

(y - 25) = 10 × (x - 2)

Expanding,

y - 25 = 10x - 20

y = 10x - 20 + 25

y = 10x + 5

1/4(X-10)=2X+1 <br><br> what is X?
In-s [12.5K]

Answer: x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{4}(x-10)=2x+1

Distribute 1/4

\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}(10)=2x+1

\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{5}{2}=2x+1

add 5/2

\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{5}{2}+\frac{5}{2}=2x+1+\frac{5}{2}

\frac{1}{4}x=2x+\frac{1*2+5}{2}

\frac{1}{4}x=2x+\frac{2+5}{2}

\frac{1}{4}x=2x+\frac{7}{2}

Subtract 2x

\frac{1}{4}x-2x=2x-2x+\frac{7}{2}

\frac{1}{4}x-2x=\frac{7}{2}

\frac{1-2*4}{4}x=\frac{7}{2}

\frac{1-8}{4}x=\frac{7}{2}

-\frac{7}{4} x=\frac{7}{2}

Multiply by the negative reciprocal of -7/4 which is basically inverting the fraction -4/7

(-\frac{4}{7} )-\frac{7}{4} x=\frac{7}{2}(-\frac{4}{7} )

x=-\frac{28}{14}\\ x=-2

CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME?<br>1. Find the unknown side length.<br><br>*CAN YOU PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK*?​
puteri [66]

Answer:

(D) 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this triangle is a right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem which is a^2 +b^2 = c^2 (where a is the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.) For this triangle using the pythagorean theorem we can say that 12^2 +16^2 = x^2. When we simplify this equation we get 144+256=x^2. When we simplify this we get x^2=400. When we take the square root of x we get that x = √400 = 20. The answer is (D) 20.
