the cost of the meals if x people attend the event. What is the meaning of the slope of the equation?
A
The company charges an initial fee of $8.50.
B
The company charges an initial fee of $45.00.
The cost increases by $8.50 for each person who attends the event.
The cost increases by $45.00 for each person who attends the event.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost increases by $8.50 for each person who attends the event.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The company charges an initial fee of $45.00

The cost increases by $8.50 for each person who attends the event.

The correct options are B and C

As per the given data:

The equation y = 8.50x + 45.00 can be used to predict the cost of the meals if x people attend the event.

By comparing this equation with the slope intercept form y = mx + c

slope(m) = 8.50

We can find out the initial fee charged by the company by substituting

x = 0 {zero people}

y = 8.50(0) + 45.00

y = $45.00

For increase in cost with each person attending the event:

Cost for 2 persons - Cost for 1 person

= 8.50(2) + 45.00 - [8.50(1) + 45.00]

= 8.50(2) - 8.50(1)

= $8.50

This is the slope of the line

Hence, The company charges an initial fee of $45.00 and the cost increases by $8.50 for each person who attends the event.

1/2r + 2 (3/4r - 1) = 1/4r + 6

Answers

Answer:

r=32/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

1/2r + 2 (3/4r - 1) = 1/4r + 6

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

1/2r + 2 (3/4r - 1) = 1/4r + 6

1/2r+(2)(3/4r)+(2)(-1)=1/4r+6(Distribute)

1/2r+3/2r+-2=1/4r+6

(1/2r+3/2r)+(-2)=1/4r+6(Combine Like Terms)

2r+-2=1/4r+6

2r-2=1/4r+6

Step 2: Subtract 1/4r from both sides.

2r-2-1/4r=14r+6-14r

7/4r-2=6

Step 3: Add 2 to both sides.

7/4r-2+2=6+2

7/4r=8

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 4/7.

(4/7)*(7/4r)=(4/7)*(8)

r=32/7

Answer: r=32/7

find the slope of the line passing through the points (-2,-8) and (7,-8)

Answers

Answer: 0/9

Step-by-step explanation: Hi there!

First, we have to put the points into the y2-y1/x2-x1 form.

Take the y value from the second point (-8) and the first point y value (-8)

and subtract.

-8 - (-8)

to get 0

Now we have to get our denominator by taking the x value from our second point and subtracting it by our first y point.

7 - (-2)

to get 9

so when we put that together...

we get 0/9

So the answer is 0/9.

Answers

Answer:

The number of pink pens can be 19 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of pens = 20

Let x be the number of pink pens

We are supposed to find If the probability of choosing a pink pen is close to 1, how many pink pens would you expect to see in Amanda's bag

Probability of choosing a pink pen = [tex]\frac{\text{Number of pink pens}}{\text{Total Number of pens}}[/tex]

Probability of choosing a pink pen =[tex]\frac{x}{20}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{20}[/tex]≈1

x≈20

So, the number of pink pens can be 19 .

Given:

Three equations are

[tex]6(0.5x-1.5)+2x=-9-(x+6)[/tex]

[tex]4(0.5x-2)+3x=-14-(x+6)[/tex]

[tex]8(0.5x-3)+4x=-9-(x+6)[/tex]

Three solutions are [tex]x=-2,x=-1,x=1[/tex].

To find:

The solution of each equation from the given solutions.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]6(0.5x-1.5)+2x=-9-(x+6)[/tex]

Using distributive property, we get

[tex]3x-9+2x=-9-x-6[/tex]

[tex]5x-9=-15-x[/tex]

Isolate variable terms.

[tex]5x+x=-15+9[/tex]

[tex]6x=-6[/tex]

Divide both sides by 6.

[tex]x=-1[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]4(0.5x-2)+3x=-14-(x+6)[/tex]

[tex]2x-8+3x=-14-x-6[/tex]

[tex]5x-8=-20-x[/tex]

[tex]5x+x=-20+8[/tex]

[tex]6x=-12[/tex]

[tex]x=-2[/tex]

Now,

[tex]8(0.5x-3)+4x=-9-(x+6)[/tex]

[tex]4x-24+4x=-9-x-6[/tex]

[tex]8x-24=-15-x[/tex]

[tex]8x+x=-15+24[/tex]

[tex]9x=9[/tex]

[tex]x=1[/tex]

Therefore, the solutions of given equations [tex]6(0.5x-1.5)+2x=-9-(x+6)[/tex], [tex]4(0.5x-2)+3x=-14-(x+6)[/tex] and [tex]8(0.5x-3)+4x=-9-(x+6)[/tex] are x=-1, x=-2 and x=1 respectively.

A Major League Baseball stadium sells three types of tickets. Reserved tickets are sold for $20 each, field-level tickets are sold for $50 each, and box seat tickets are sold for $100 each. You purchase 10 total tickets for $370. You have twice as many reserved tickets as field-level tickets.

Answers

Answer:

There were 6 reserved tickets, 3 field level tickets and 1 box seat tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of reserved tickets, y represent the number of field level tickets and z represent the number of box seat tickets.

Given that 10 total tickets were bought for $370, hence this can be represented by the equation:

20x + 50y + 100z = 370          (1)

x + y + z = 10        (2)

Also there was twice as many reserved tickets as field-level tickets. This can be represented by the equation:

x = 2y

x - 2y = 0             (3)

solving equations 1, 2, and 3 simultaneously gives:

x = 6, y = 3 and z = 1

There were 6 reserved tickets, 3 field level tickets and 1 box seat tickets

-2|2x+4|+10>-6

Answers

Answer:

-6 < x < 2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2|2x+4|+10>-6

Subtract 10 from each side

-2|2x+4|+10-10>-6-10

-2|2x+4|>-16

Divide by -2, remembering to flip the inequality

-2/-2|2x+4|>-16/-2

|2x+4|<8

We have two solutions, one positive and one negative( remember to flip the inequality)

2x+4 < 8    and 2x+4 > -8

Subtract 4 from each side

2x+4-4 < 8-4    and 2x+4-4 > -8-4

2x < 4             and   2x > -12

Divide by 2

2x/2 < 4/2             and   2x/2 > -12/2

x <2                and           x > -6

-6 < x < 2

Answer:

x<2 and x>-6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get rid of anything on the outside of the absolute value bars. Subtract the 10 on both sides first.

-2|2x+4|+10>-6

             -10  -10

-2|2x+4|>-16

Now, divide by -2 on both sides.

-2|2x+4|>-16

/-2           /-2

|2x+4|<8

Just so you know, any time you multiply or divide by a negative, flip the inequality sign. Now because the numbers in the absolute bars are by themselves, you can start to finally solve. But, when you have an equation with absolute bars and you have the numbers in the absolute bars by themselves, you always have to split it into two equations. The equations have to be identical, but the number on the opposite side of the x has to be negative. Now, you solve both equations just like regular ones. Also, flip the sign for the inequality with the negative number.

|2x+4|<8    and     |2x+4|>-8

     -4  -4                     -4  -4

2x<4                      2x>-12

/2  /2                      /2   /2
