The table and the graph below each show a different relationship between the same two variables, x and y:

How much more would the value of y be on the graph than its value in the table when x = 12?
20
30
60
70

Answers

For the table, y = 25x.
When x = 12, y = 25*12 = 300

For the graph, y = 30x
When x = 12, y = 30*12 = 360

When x = 12, the value of y on the graph is 60 more than its value in the table.


Answer:

The correct option is C. The value of y be on the graph than is 60 more than the y value in the table when x = 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line passing through two points then the equation of line is

[tex]y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]

From the given table it is clear that the line passing thought the points (4,100) and (5,125).

[tex]y-100=\frac{125-100}{5-4}(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]y-100=25(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]y-100=25x-100[/tex]

[tex]y=25x[/tex]

The value of this function at x=12 is

[tex]y=25(12)=300[/tex]

From the given table it is clear that the line passing thought the points (0,0) and (2,60).

[tex]y-0=\frac{60-0}{2-0}(x-0)[/tex]

[tex]y=30x[/tex]

The value of this function at x=12 is

[tex]y=30(12)=360[/tex]

The difference between y value in the graph and in the table at x=12 is

[tex]360-300=60[/tex]

The value of y be on the graph than is 60 more than the y value in the table when x = 12. Therefore the correct option is C.

A company has a $150 budget to provide lunch for its 20 employees. The options are to provide either roast beef sandwiches, which cost $5 apiece, or tuna sandwiches, which also cost $5 apiece. The company also wants to use the entire budget. Suppose r represents the number of roast beef sandwiches it provides and t represents the number of tuna sandwiches. Which statement is correct?

A. The company can provide lunch for all 20 employees and use the entire budget because there is a solution to the system of equations r-t=20 and 5r+5t=150.

B. The company can provide lunch for all 20 employees and use the entire budget because there is a solution to the system of equations r+t=20 and 5r+5t=150.

C. The company cannot provide lunch for all 20 employees and use the entire budget because there is no solution to the system of equations r-t=20 and 5r-5t=150.

D. The company cannot provide lunch for all 20 employees and use the entire budget because there is no solution to the system of equations r+t=20 and 5r+5t=150.

Answers

For the linear system :

r+t = 20 and 5(r+t) = 150

If you sub in the first equation into the second, you will get: 100 = 150, which is incorrect

It means the system does NOT have solutions.

Answer will be the last choice

Answer: D. The company cannot provide lunch for all 20 employees and use the entire budget because there is no solution to the system of equations r+t=20 and 5r+5t=150.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'r' represents the number of roast beef sandwiches it provides and 't' represents the number of tuna sandwiches.

Then, the total number of roast beef sandwiches and tuna sandwiches is equal to the number of employees :

[tex]r+t=20[/tex]....................(1)

Also, the cost of each roast beef sandwich and cost of each tuna sandwich is same as $5.

If company wants to use the entire budget of $150, then we have another equation :-

[tex]5r+5t=150\\\5(r+t)=150[/tex]

If we divide 5 on both sides we get

[tex]r+t=30[/tex].............................(2)

When we compare equation (1) and (2) we get 20=30 but it is not possible therefore the system has no solution.

Therefore, the correct statement is "The company cannot provide lunch for all 20 employees and use the entire budget because there is no solution to the system of equations r+t=20 and 5r+5t=150."

A company sells boxes of cow bells (b) for $20 and boxes of air horns (h) for $30. They can make a batch of cow bells that fills 8 boxes or a batch of air horns that fills 9 boxes. The company only has 53 boxes. Which system of equations helps the company plan to make $275?

Answers

20b + 30h = 275

8b + 9h = 53

Solving a system of equations to help a company plan revenue and production constraints.

The system of equations:

20b + 30h = 275 (total revenue equation)

8b + 9h = 53 (total boxes equation)

By solving these equations simultaneously, the company can determine the number of cow bells and air horns to produce to make $275 while satisfying the box constraint.

A map of square piece of property is drawn at a scale of 1:500. If a side of the property on the map is 16 cm, what is the property's actual area?

Answers

A=s^2

s=500x

A=250000x^2, and since x=16cm

A=250000(16^2)

A=64000000 cm^2  But a more appropriate unit would be m^2 so:

A=64000000cm^2(m^2/10000cm^2)=6400 m^2

Answer:

Property's actual area  = 6400 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale = 1 : 500

Side on map = 16 cm

Side of property = scale x side on map = 16 x 500 = 8000 cm

Area of property = 8000 x 8000 = 64000000 cm²

Area of property = 6.4 x 10⁷ cm² = 6.4 x 10³ m²

Property's actual area  = 6400 m²

Third one: (x+3)^2 + 2 (BTW should cross at 11 when x = 0, instead of 12)

Answer:

The correct answer is [tex]y = \frac{10}{9}(x+3)^2+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer to the question is not provided in the options listed below.

In order to find the equation of the quadratic function that you're looking for, you should identify the two points the parabola passes through: the vertex (that is point (-3,2)) and the y-intercept (the point (0,12)).

As we are given the vertex of the quadratic function, we can use the completed square form:  [tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex], where h and k are, respectively, the x and y coordinates of the vertex.

As (-3,2) is the vertex, we have:

[tex]y=a(x+3)^2+2[/tex]

Now, as the graph passes through the point (0,12), we can replace x=0 and y=12 in the formula above in order to find the value of a. Then, we make a the subject of the equation:

[tex]12=a(0+3)^2+2[/tex]

[tex]12=9a+2[/tex]

[tex] 10=9a[/tex]

[tex] \frac{10}{9}=a[/tex]

So, the equation of the parabola is [tex]y=\frac{10}{9}(x+3)^2+2[/tex].

Joey has a full 40 coins consisting of only quarters and nickels if the total value is $5.00 how many of each does joey have.

Answers

q + n = 40....q = 40 - n
0.25q + 0.05n = 5

0.25(40 - n) + 0.05n = 5
10 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 5
-0.25n + 0.05n = 5 - 10
 - 0.20n = -5
n = -5 / -0.20
n = 25 <=== 25 nickels

q + n = 40
q + 25 = 40
q = 40 - 25
q = 15 <== 15 quarters
n=number of nickles
q=number of quarters

40 coins total so
n+q=40

total value is 500 cents
5n+25q=500
divide both sides by 5
n+5q=100


so we gots
n+q=40
n+5q=100

elimination
multily first equation by -1 and add to 2nd equation

-n-q=-40
n+5q=100 +
0n+4q=60

4q=60
divide both sides by 4
q=15

sub back
n+q=40
n+15=40
minus 15 both sides

8. Find the congruence transformation that maps ∆ABC to ∆A’B’C’. Explain your reasoning

Answers

In this case, to flip any of the points to map up accurately to the other points, we would have to do a transformation of reflection about the y-axis. The reason behind this is that out of other transformation process, we can only achieve the image of triangle ∆A’B’C’ through reflection.

Dilation will not work since it only changes the size of the object. The shape and position will not affected.

A translation will not work because although the shape can move, it still needs to flip to achieve triangle ∆A’B’C’.

A rotation will also not work because when you rotate it, the shape will still not map over the new one.


Therefore the only answer to this question would be to reflect triangle ∆ABC about the y-axis.

Answers

Final answer:

The student is trying to find the 4th term in a mathematical sequence where the first term is 13 and the rule for each term is to add 5. Thus, the 4th term of this sequence is 28.

Explanation:

The student is asking about a mathematical sequence where the first term is 13 and the term to rule is 'take away -5', or in other words, add 5 (since subtracting a negative number is the same as addition). So, to find the nth term of this sequence, you subtract (or add in this case) -5 to the first term, and continue in the sequent term.

Using these rules, here are the first four terms of the sequence: 1st term - 13. 2nd term [tex]- 13 + 5 = 18[/tex]. 3rd term [tex]- 18 + 5 = 23[/tex]. 4th term[tex]- 23 + 5 = 28.[/tex]

A regular hexagon and an equilateral triangle have equal perimeters. what is the ratio of the area of the hexagon to the area of the triangle? express your answer as a common fraction.

Answers

In this item, we let the perimeter of both polygons be P. The lengths of each side are calculated below.

Hexagon:   s = (p/6) = p/6
Triangle:     s = (p/3) = p/3

The areas of each polygon are also calculated below. It is noted that the polygons are regular (meaning, each side and angle are equal).

Area of Hexagon:    A = 3√3/2 a²
 Substituting the known values,
                     A = 3√3/2(P/6)²
Simplifying,
                      A = √3/24P²

For the triangle,
              A = √3/4a²

Substituting,
                A = √3/4 (P/3)²
Simplifying,
               A = √3/36P²

The ratio is equal to:
              ratio = (√3/24P²) / (√3/36P²)
                ratio = 3/2
                    ratio = 1.5

How to find 0.36 repeating in a equivalent fraction form?

Answers

[tex]x=0.\overline{36}\\ 100x=36.\overline{36}\\ 100x-x=36.\overline{36}-0.\overline{36}\\ 99x=36\\ x=\dfrac{36}{99}=\dfrac{4}{11} [/tex]

To convert 0.36 repeating into a fraction, we get [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex].

To convert the repeating decimal 0.36 repeating (written as 0.363636...) into a fraction, follow these steps:

Let x = 0.363636...Multiply both sides of the equation by 100 (since the repeating part is two digits long):

⇒ 100x = 36.363636...

Subtract the original equation from this new equation:

⇒ 100x - x = 36.363636... - 0.363636...

⇒ 99x = 36

Solve for x:

⇒ x = [tex]\frac{36}{99}[/tex]

Simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 36 and 99, which is 9:

⇒ x = ([tex]\frac{36}{99}[/tex]) / ([tex]\frac{99}{9}[/tex]) = [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex]

Therefore, the fraction equivalent of 0.36 repeating is [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex].

A hotel chain charges $75 each night for the first two nights and $50 for each additional night’s stay. the total cost t is a function of the number of nights x that a guest stays.

Answers

you would need a function to determine whether to use a formula for 1 or 2 nights or a formula for more than 2 nights

T(x)={a if x <_ 2, b if x > 2}

 if it's 2 nights or less use option a, a = 75x

 if its longer than 2 days use option b, b= 50x + 50





Answer:

t = 75x  {x ≤ 2}

t = 150 + 50x {x > 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

A hotel chain charges $75 per night for first two nights.

If the number of nights of the stay are x then charges for x nights

= 75x where x ≤ 2

If the stay is for than 2 nights then charges for x nights

= Charges for two first 2 nights(@$75 per night) + charges for other than initial 2 nights (@$50 per night)

= (75×2) + 50x where x > 2

Therefore total cost of the hotel if represented by t then the function will be

t = 75x  {x ≤ 2}

t = 150 + 50x {x > 2}

Triangle DEF is congruent to GHJ by the SSS theorem. Which rigid transformation is required to map DEF onto GHJ?

dilation
reflection
rotation
translation

Answers

Answer: The correct option is 4, i.e., translation.

Explanation:

It is given that the triangle DEF is congruent to GHJ by the SSS theorem.

From the given figure it is noticed that the triangle DEF and GHI are isosceles triangle.

Reason for correct option:

In transition the side and angles of the shape are not effected and the figure transfers from one place to another place without making any other change.

Since the both triangle are congruent and the position of all sides and angles are same, therefore option 4 is correct.

Reason for incorrect option:

In dilation the size of the figure is either stretched or compressed according to the scale factor k. But in the given figure the size of both triangles are same it means option A is incorrect.

In reflection the distance of all the point in preimage and all the image are same from the central line. Any central line does not exist in given figure. SO, the option B is incorrect.

In rotation the side length and angles are not affected but the position are not same, therefore the option C is incorrect.

Answer: Translation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Triangle DEF is congruent to GHJ by the SSS theorem.

From the given picture two sides of both triangles are equal therefore, the triangle DEF and GHI are isosceles triangle.

We know that a transition is a kind of rigid motion used in geometry to trace a function that moves an object a particular distance that maps produces images.

Since the both triangle are congruent and just position of triangle GHJ is shifted to the right and down.

Therefore, the  transition is rigid transformation which is required to map DEF onto GHJ
