Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows a linear function.

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 7) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = \frac{7-3}{2-1} = 4, thus

y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute any ordered pair into the partial equation

Using (1, 3), then

3 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 4 = - 1

y = 4x - 1 → C

Three Nissans, two Fords, and four Chevrolets can be rented for $106 per day. At the same rates two Nissans, four Fords, and thr
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The rental rate for the Fords is of $12 per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the cost of a Nissan.

y is the cost of a Ford.

z is the cost of a Chevrolet.

Three Nissans, two Fords, and four Chevrolets can be rented for $106 per day.

This means that:

3x + 2y + 4z = 106

Two Nissans, four Fords, and three Chevrolets cost $107 per day

This means that:

2x + 4y + 3z = 107

Four Nissans, three Fords, and two Chevrolets cost $102 per day.

This means that:

4x + 3y + 2z = 102

From the first equation:

4z = 106 - 3x - 2y

2z = 53 - 1.5x - y

z = 26.5 - 0.75x - 0.5y

Replacing into the third equation:

4x + 3y + 53 - 1.5x - y = 102

2.5x + 2y = 49

From the second equation:

2x + 4y + 3z = 107

2x = 107 - 4y - 3z

x = 53.5 - 2y - 1.5z

x = 53.5 - 2y - 1.5(26.5 - 0.75x - 0.5y)

x - 1.125x = 53.5 - 2y - 39.75 + 0.75y

-0.125x = 13.75 - 1.25y

0.125x = 1.25y - 13.75

x = \frac{1.25y - 13.75}{0.125}

x = 10y - 110

Find the rental rate for the Fords.

We have to find y, so:

2.5x + 2y = 49

2.5(10y - 110) + 2y = 49

25y - 275 + 2y = 49

27y = 324

y = \frac{324}{27}

y = 12

The rental rate for the Fords is of $12 per day.

Find cot theta if 180° < theta < 270° and cos theta = - sqrt 3/2
avanturin [10]

Answer:

cot theta = -√3

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given that  cos theta = - √3/2 within the range 180° < theta < 270° and

since cos theta = adj/hyp

adj = - √3

hyp = 2

Get the opposite using the pythagoras theorem

hyp^2 = opp^2 + adj^2

2² = opp² + (-√3)²

4 = opp² + 3

opp² = 4-3

opp² = 1

opp = 1

tan theta = opp/adj

tan theta = - 1/√3

Recall that cot theta = 1/tan theta

cot theta = 1/(-1/√3)

cot theta = -√3
