Answer:

y = 2x

the formula for linear equations are y = mx+c,

where m is the gradient,

and c is the y-intercept

to find m (the gradient):

1. pick to points on the graph (eg. -2,-4 and 2,4)

2 substitute the values into the formula for gradient y2-y1/x2-x1.

m = y2-y1/x1-x2

= -4 -4/-2-2

= -8/-4

= 2

to find c (y-intercept):

- the y-intercept is where the graph cuts the y axis

- in this graph, the y-intercept is 0

hence,

c = 0

substitute m = 2 and c = 0 to y = mx+c,

y = 2x + 0

y = 2x

hence, the equation that best represents the relationship shown in the graph is y = 2x.

Ed wants to borrow $20,000 from a bank to open a small gym. Three banks charge different interest rates. To help decide the best

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

First bank = $6792

City bank = $6803

Star bank = $6817

Step-by-step explanation:

The lists of banks and their annual interests rates are attached.

For first bank, since the interest is 7.5%, The total interest = 7.5% of $20000 = 0.075 × $20000 = $1500

For city bank, since the interest is 8.2%, The total interest = 8.2% of $20000 = 0.082 × $20000 = $1640

For Star bank, since the interest is 9%, The total interest = 9% of $20000 = 0.09 × $20000 = $1800

The loan plus interest for the banks annually are:

First bank = $20000 + $1500 = $21500

City bank = $20000 + $1640 = $21640

Star bank = $20000 + $1900 = $21900

The monthly payments for the banks are:

First bank = $21500 / 12 months = $1792

City bank = $21640 / 12 months = $1803

Star bank = $21800 / 12 months = $1817

Since The cost to run the gym each month is $5,000. Ed's total monthly expenses for each loan option = monthly payments + cost for each month. It is calculated as:

First bank = $5000 + $1792 = $6792

City bank = $5000 + $1803 = $6803

Star bank = $5000 + $1817 = $6817

A company sells widgets. The amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to the selling price of each widget, x, by the

defon

Answer:

Price of widget to break even= $37.9

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the equation representing the amount of profit, y, made by the company, in relation to the selling price of each widget, x is;

y = -8x² + 348x - 1705

Now, the company will break even when it has made no profit. That is when, y = 0

Thus;

0 = -8x² + 348x - 1705

Rearranging,

8x² - 348x + 1705 = 0

Using quadratic formula ;

x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/2a

x = [-8 ± √(-348² - 4•1•1705)]/(2 x 8)

x = $5.63 or $37.87

We'll use $37.87 because it is the highest price for which no profit is made, and higher price means that we could sell least number of products to earn a certain amount of money.

We are told to approximate to nearest cent. Thus,

Price of widget = $37.87 ≈ $37.9

If p(a|b) = 0.35, p(b) = 0.75 and p(a) = 0.44 are the events a and b independent ?

MatroZZZ [7]

Hello :
note 1 :
p(A|B) = p(A∩B)/<span> p(B)

note 2 :
</span> A and B independent: p(A∩B) = p(A)×p(B)
calculate : p(A∩B)
p(A∩B) = p(A|B)×p(B)
p(A∩B) = 0.35 ×0.75 = 0.2625
but : p(A)×p(B) = 0.44×0.75 = 0.33
conclusion :
<span>the events A and B are not independent ?</span>

the graph of h is the graph of f(x)=x^2 translated 4 units left and 7 units down. Write the function H in vertex form.

adoni [48]

Answer:

f(x)=a(x - h)2 + k

Much like a linear function, k works like b in the slope-intercept formula. Like where add or subtract b would determine where the line crosses, in the linear, k determines the vertex of the parabola. If you're going to go up 2, then you need to add 2.

The h determines the movement horizontally. what you put in h determines if it moves left or right. To adjust this, you need to find the number to make the parentheses equal 0 when x equals -2 (because moving the vertex point to the left means subtraction/negatives):

x - h = 0

-2 - h = 0

-h = 2

h = -2

So the function ends up looking like:

f(x)=a(x - (-2))2 + 2

Subtracting a negative cancels the signs out to make a positive:

f(x)=a(x + 2)2 + 2

In order to solve the following system of equations by subtraction, which of the following could you do before subtracting the e

Whitepunk [10]

I can't see the options, but you would need to multiply (4x - 2y = 7) by 3, and (3x - 3y = 15) by 4 so that you get 12x in both equations. Then when you subtract, you eliminate 12x. I hope this helps!
