Answer:
The constant term in the polynomial is 140 and it represents the revenue when the price is not increased.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find: What is the constant term in the polynomial expression, and what does it represent?
The given expression is 
.
To find the constant term we can simply put x=0 in the given equation where x represents the number of $1 increase in price.
=
=
The constant term is 140 and it represents the revenue when the cost of a hot dog is $2.
Hence, the constant term in the polynomial is 140 and it represents the revenue when the price is not increased.
No they are not quivalent
Answer: The first graph
Step-by-step explanation:
An asymptote is an imaginary line that the function is approaching but never reaching. y=2 is a horizontal line. Therefore by looking at the graphs, the first graph shows the two functions never approaching 2, but gets very close to it. Therefore it is the first graph.
Answer:
6. E
7. D
8. 5,-8,34
Step-by-step explanation:
A. Parallel to the y-axis and passes through the point (3,5)
For it to be parallel to the y-axis, what this means is that it has an x-intercept and no y intercept.
So what this means is that x = 3 is our line so E is correct
B. Perpendicular to the y-axis means it is parallel to the x-axis
It means is has no x intercept and thus its x value at any point in time is zero
So the equation is y = -5
or simply y + 5 = 0 which means D is correct
C. It is parallel to the line 5x -8y + 12 = 0
Thus: 8y = 5x + 12
dividing both sides by 8
y = 5x/8 + 12/8
y = 5x/8 + 3/2
y = 5x/8 + 1.5
Comparing this with the general equation of a straight line ;
y = mx + c
where m is that slope, this means that 5/8 is the slope of the line
Mathematically if two lines are parallel, they have equal slopes.
So we can say the slope of the other line too is 5/8
Now to find the equation of the other line, we can use the point-slope method
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
where (x1,y1) in this case is (-2,3)
So we have;
y-3 = m(x-(-2))
y-3 = 5/8 (x + 2)
8(y-3) = 5(x + 2)
8y -24 = 5x + 10
5x + 10 + 24 -8y = 0
5x -8y + 34 = 0
So A, B, C = 5, -8, 34
Multiply both siase of equation by 3
2x*3/3=4*3
2x=12
devide by 2
2x:2=12:2
x=6
Answer: x=6
