Answer: The numbers are -3 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:  Let x be the first number and y be the second number

then according to given statements the linear equations will be:

"Four times a number minus twice another number is -16"

"The sum of the two numbers is -1"

From equation 2:

Putting y = -x-1 in equation 1

Subtracting 2 from both sides

Dividing both sides by 6

Putting x = -3 in equation 2:

Hence,

The numbers are -3 and 2

Natalka [10]

Answer: a) c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1, b) 13 units

Step-by-step explanation: Revenue function = R(x) = 0.21x

Profit function = p(x) = 0.086 - 1.1

Cost function = c(x) =?

A)

Recall that profit = total revenue - total cost

Hence, total cost = total revenue - profit

c(x) = 0.21x - (0.086x - 1.1)

c(x) = 0.21x - 0.086x + 1.1

c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1

B)

Break even point is the point where total revenue equals total cost

R(x) = c(x)

0.21x = 0.124x + 1.1

0.21x - 0.124x = 1.1

0.086x = 1.1

x = 1.1/0.086

x = 12.79 which is approximately 13 units

Write the equation of the line in point-slope form that has slope 3 and passes through (2, -5)
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

y = 3x - 11      

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

y = mx + b          Slope Intercept Form

Step 2:

y = 3x + b        Input Slope

Step 3:

- 5 = 3 ( 2 ) + b        Input x and y values

Step 4:

- 5 = 6 + b          Multiply

Step 5:

- 11 = b        Subtract 6 on both sides

Answer:

y = 3x - 11
