Melanie And Patrick Have Different Phone Services. The Relationship Of The Monthly Cost, Y Dollars, To

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Melanie: y = 0.25x

Patrick: y = 0.03x + 5

Patrick's service is cheaper when 50 texts are sent or received in one month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find out Melanie's monthly texting cost function using the table. We are given multiple points that the line describing her monthly text costs passes through, so we can use the slope formula to calculate the slope of this line first.

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)  

Substitute (5, 1.25) and (10, 2.50) into this formula.

m = (2.5 - 1.25) / (10 - 5)m = 1.25 / 5 m = 0.25

Now we can use the point-slope equation to determine the line that describes Melanie's monthly texting cost.

I'm going to use the point (5, 1.25) and the slope m = 0.25.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)y - 1.25 = 0.25(x - 5)y - 1.25 = 0.25x - 1.25 y = 0.25x  

We have Melanie's function:

y = 0.25x

We have Patrick's function:

y = 0.03x + 5


We want to determine which service is cheaper when 50 texts are sent/received in one month.

The number of texts sent and received is represented with the variable "x", and the cost of this service is represented with the variable "y".

All we need to do is substitute 50 for x in both equations to see if Melanie or Patrick's service is cheaper.

Starting with Melanie:

y = 0.25x y = 0.25(50)y = 12.50

Now with Patrick:

y = 0.03x + 5 y = 0.03(50) + 5y = 1.5 + 5 y = 6.5

Patrick's service is substantially cheaper than Melanie's service when 50 texts are sent or received in one month.

Step-by-step explanation:

about circle R

arc angle MP = angle MRP = 78°

angle M = angle LMP.

according to the rules of inscribed angles, LMP is half of angle LRP.

LRP + MRP = 180° because together they cover the whole LM segment (half-circle).

LRP = 180 - MRP = 180 - 78 = 102°

so, LMP = angle M = 102/2 = 61°

also circle R (with arc ULNP)

the arc ULNP = arc UL + arc LN + arc NP = 160°

due to the congruent definition of JU and MP we know that arc UL = arc NP.

and we know arc LN = arc JM = 18°.

so,

160 = 2×arc NP + 18

142 = 2×arc NP

arc NP = 71° = arc UL

now, because arc MP + arc LP = 180 (half-circle),

arc MP = 180 - arc LP = 180 - arc LN - arc NP =

= 180 - 18 - 71 = 91°

about the circle R with 2 congruent chords :

the second answer : they are equidistant from R (the center of the circle).

about circle W

arc MK + arc KL = 180° (half-circle).

and we see

arc HL = arc KL = 53°.

so,

arc MK + 53 = 180°

arc MK = 180 - 53 = 127°

about circle M

arc QTS = 204°.

therefore, arc QRS = 360 - arc QTS = 360 - 204 =

= 156° = angle QMS.

according to the rules of inscribed angles

angle QTS = QMS/2 = 156/2 = 78°

A bike shop has 35 bicycles and tricycles with a total of 81 wheels. How many bicycles and how many tricycles are in the shop?

Answers

Answer:

There are 24 bicycles and 11 tricycles in the shop

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make a system of equations to find the answer:

x for bicycles and y for tricycles:

x + y = 35

2x + 3y = 81

2x because bicycles have 2 wheels, 3y because tricycles have 3 wheels, and have set the total to 81 because 81 wheels in total.

Solving, we will find that there are 24 bicycles and 11 tricycles in the shop.

Find S.P. in the following cases. a) M.P. = Rs 540, discount = 5 %​

MP = Marked Price ( Also called List Price) SP = Selling Price.

Discount = (Discount %) of MP

Discount = (5/100) 54p

Discount = 27 Rs

SP = MP - Discount

SP = 540 - 27 Rs

SP = 513 Rs

Answer;

Triangle XYZ is dilated by a scale factor of 4 3 . Which algebraic rule represents how to find the coordinates of triangle X’Y’Z’?

Answers

When the triangle XYZ is dilated by a scale factor of 4/3, the resulting triangle would have a bigger side lengths

The algebraic rule  is [tex](x,y) \to (\frac 43x,\frac 43y)[/tex]

How to determine the algebraic rule?

From the question, we understand that:

The scale factor (k) of the dilation is:

k = 4/3

The dilation rule across the origin is represented as:

[tex](x,y) \to k(x,y)[/tex]

Substitute 4/3 for k

[tex](x,y) \to \frac 43(x,y)[/tex]

Expand

[tex](x,y) \to (\frac 43x,\frac 43y)[/tex]

Hence, the algebraic rule that represents how to find the coordinates of triangle X’Y’Z’ is [tex](x,y) \to (\frac 43x,\frac 43y)[/tex]

Answer:

A theoretical price point at which demand being equal

The theoretical price point at which demand equals supply is the correct answer.

What is equilibrium?

Equilibrium is a state of balance or condition of stableness.

In economics, equilibrium is also the same, it is a condition in which prices become stable by the balance of market supply and demand.

It is a situation in which conditions cannot be changed by any economic agent strategy.

There are some properties of equilibrium

1. Consistency in the behavior of agents.

2. No economic agent has an incentive to change the behavior.

3. Equilibrium is the outcome of a few dynamic processes.

It cost marci 33 cents to mail a postcard and 49 cents to mail a letter. she sent either a postcard or a letter to each of 28 people and spent $13.08. let x represent the number of postcards she wrote and write an algebraic expression for each item in parts a through c.

Answers

Answer:

24 Letters and 4 Postcards

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to set up a system of equations, since we have two unknown variables. Lets say postcards is the variable "x" and letters is the variable "y".

Our first equation will be the money spent: 0.33x + 0.49y = 13.08, this comes from knowing that it costs 0.33 dollars to mail a postcard and 0.49 dollars to send a letter.

The second equation is the total sent: x + y =28.

Now we need to solve for a single variable, let's do y (or letters). If we subtract y from both sides we get: x = 28 - y.

We can plug that into our first equatino to get: 0.33(28 - y) + 0.49y = 13.08.

If we multiply things out we get: 9.24 - 0.33y + 0.49y = 13.08, and now we have like terms. 9.24 + 0.16y = 13.08.

Subtract 9.24 from both sides to get: 0.16y = 3.84

Divide both sides by 0.16 to get: y = 24.

Now we can plug this into x + y = 28 to see that x= 4.

You could make sure this is correct by solving for x instead of y and do the same process.

Hope this helps.

one simple way to tell if both equations do ever meet or have a solution is by checking their slope, notice in this case the slopes are the same for both, meaning the lines are parallel lines, however, notice both equations are really the same, namely the 2nd equation is really the 1st one in disguise.

since both equations are equal, their graph will be of one line pancaked on top of the other, and the solutions is where they meet, hell, they meet everywhere since one is on top of the other, so infinitely many solutions.
