Answer:

  • Grayson had 10 inches of snow in his lawn
  • the snow falls at a constant rate of 0.5 inches per hour
  • no snow was melting
  • the snow has fallen for 3 hours  

Let y be the height of the snow in the lawn

Grayson had 10 inches at the beginning (at t=0) so y= 10

3 hours passed so y= 10 + 3*0.5 = 11.5 inches

Grayson had 11.5 inches after three hours

Assuming that the snow continued to fall for an unkhown time t

y = 0.5*t + 10

we had 10 at the beginning so we add 10 (+10)

the snow is growing by 0.5 inches in the single hour so we multiply by 0.5

t is the time and it can 4, 5, 6 ...... hours

Just like a function :

  • 0.5 is the slope
  • t is the variable
  • 10 is the y-intercept

14. a house-painting company charges 376$ plus 12$ an hour. Another painting company charges 280$ plus 15$ an hour.
Art [367]
One company charges:
$376 + $12*h

Other company charges:
$280 + $15*h

They will both charge the same when:

$376 + $12*h = $280 + $15*h

96 = 3*h

hours = 32
Cost will be $760

Double Check
$376 + $12 * 32 hours = $760

$280 + $15 * 32 hours = $760

Answer: C

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = 26.2 - 0.1x

f(100) = 26.2 - 0.1(100)

         = 26.2 = 10.0

         = 16.2

f(5-) = 26.2 - 0.1(50)

       = 26.2 - 5.0

       = 21.2

******************************************************

Answer: D

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = 2|x - 3| + 1

2 units right: f(x) = 2|x - (3 + 2)| + 1

                           = 2|x - 5| + 1
