1 answer:

5 0

The rate of change of a function with respect to a variable. ... Geometrically, the derivative of a function can be interpreted as the slope of the graph of the function or, more precisely, as the slope of the tangent line at a point.

The drama club is selling candles for a fundraiser. They spend $100 on the candles and sell them for $4.50 each. How many candle

Naddika [18.5K]

They must sell 28 candles in order to gain more than $125 profit.

$125/$4.50 = 27.77 (round it up) = 28.

28 x $4.50 = $126

As long it’s over 28 candles, you’ll make more profit than $125.

What is the equation of the line parallel to 3x + 5y = 11 that passes through the point (15, 4)?

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line

The original line is 3x + 5y = 11

We must first write the equation in the general equation above

So we have

5y = - 3x + 11

Divide both sides by 5

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope = - 3/5

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

Slope of parallel line = - 3/5

So the equation of the line using point

(15, 4) and slope - 3/5 is

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
