Is the following graph a linear function, a nonlinear function, and/or a relation

Answers

Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, first, a linear function is something of the shape of:

y = a*x + b.

And the graph of those functions is a line, as the name implies, so we can discard that option.

So this must be a non-linear function, you can see that is a function because each value of x has only one value of y related to it.

Second, in a Venn diagram you will see that the set of functions is contained into the set of relationships, this means that all the functions are relationships, but not all the relationships are functions, and we know that this is a non-linear function, so this also must be a relationship.

Then the correct option is C, nonlinear, and a relationship.

What is an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (8, 5) and has slope −7?

Step-by-step explanation:

We can immediately adapt y - k = m(x - h) as follows:  replace m with -7, h with 8 and k with 5, obtaining:

y - 5 = -7(x - 8)

((4x+6)*70)/2=4
Solve for x

Answers

Answer:

x = -103/70 or approximately -1.47

Step-by-step explanation:

First, what I would do is get rid of the denominator, 2. You do this by perming the inverse operation to both sides, so you multiply both sides by 2.

Now your equation is: 70(4x+6) = 8

Next what I did was distribute the 70 inside the parentheses:

280x + 420 = 8.

Then you subtract 420 from both sides:

280x = -412

To get x by itself, you have to divide both sides by 280:

x= -412/280 , which simplifies to -103/70 , or can be written as an approximation of -1.47 (rounded to nearest hundredth)

This number looks nasty, but I checked my work so it should be right :)

An ocicat eats 3/5 of a pound of food daily. How many ocicats can a 19 1/2 -pound bag of food feed for one week? Explain your solution.

Answers

Answer:

13 ocicats

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are told that an Ocicat eats 3/5 pounds of food per day.

Now, we have a bag of 19 1/2 pound of food and we want to know the number of ocicats this will feed

What we just need to do is to divide the weight of the bag by the amount in pounds that can feed a single ocicat

Thus, we have;

19 1/2 divided by 3/5

= 39/5 divided by 3/5

= 39/5 * 5/3

= 13 Ocicats

A sandwich shop is ordering apples and grapes to make chicken salad. Apples cost $2.19 per pound and grapes cost $2.60 per pound. If they ordered a total of 20 pounds of apples and grapes and paid $35.80, how many pounds of grapes did they order?

We got $19.51 but we think it is wrong.

Answers

Answer:

Less than 13 pounds of grapes,

as 14 pounds of grape exceeds $35.80,

If you order as low as zero pounds of grapes, then the price of apple pounds would be $35.80/20 =$1.79 per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Quantity of Apple and grapes=20

Cost of apple=$2.19

Cost of grape=$2.60

Total cost of apple and grape=$35.80

a+g=20

a=20-g

PaQa+PgQg=35.80

2.19(20-g)+2.60g=35.80

43.8-2.19g+2.60g=35.80

0.41g=35.80-43.8

0.41g=-8

g=-8/0.41

g= -19.51

PaQa+PgQg=35.80

2.19a+2.60(-19.51)=35.80

2.19a-50.726=35.80

2.19a=35.80+50.726

2.19a=86.526

a=86.526/2.19

=39.51

PaA+PgG=35.80

Pa(20-G)+2.60G=35.80

35.80/2.60 = 13.77 pounds of grapes, but no money will be left to buy apples, unless Pa=0

G<13.77

A company laid off one-sixth of its workforce because of falling sales. If the number of employees after the layoff is 690, how many employees were laid off?

Answers

Answer:

138

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of employees before the layoff be x.

1/6 of the company's workers were laid off and the remaining workers are 690. This means that:

1/6 * x = x - 690

=> x/6 = x - 690

=> 690 = x - x/6

690 = 5x/6

=> x = (690 * 6) / 5

x = 828

There were 828 workers before the layoff. Therefore, the number of employees that were laid off is:

828 - 690 = 138 employees

The company's laying off its workforce is an illustration of proportions.

A total of 138 employees were laid off

The proportion (p) laid off is given as:

[tex]p = \frac 16[/tex]

The proportion (q) remaining in the workforce would be

[tex]q = 1 - p[/tex]

This gives

[tex]q = 1 - \frac 16[/tex]

[tex]q =\frac 56[/tex]

The workforce after 1/6 were laid off is given as 690.

So, we have:

[tex]q \times n = 690[/tex]

Where n represents the original workforce

This gives

[tex]\frac 56 \times n = 690[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 6/5

[tex]n = 828[/tex]

The number of employees that were laid off is:

[tex]Employee = 828 - 690[/tex]

[tex]Employee = 138[/tex]

Hence, 138 employees were laid off

Find the equation of the circle whose center and radius are given.

The equation of a circle is denoted by: [tex](x -x_1)^2+(y-y_1)^2=r^2[/tex], where [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] is the centre and r is the radius.

Here, the centre is (7, -3), which means [tex]x_1=7[/tex] and [tex]y_1=-3[/tex]. The radius is r = √7. Plug these values into the formula:

The area of a room is roughly 9∗10^4 square inches. If a person needs a minimum of 2.4∗10^3 square inches of space, what is the maximum number of people who could fit in this room

Answers

Answer:

37

The maximum number of people who could fit in this room is 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The area of a room A = 9 × 10^4 square inches

Minimum Area needed per person M = 2.4×10^4 square inches

The maximum number of people who could fit in this room is;

N = The area of a room A/Minimum Area needed per person M

N = A/M

Substituting the values;

N = 9×10^4 ÷ 2.4×10^3

N = 37.5

Since we can not have a 0.5 person, the number would be approximated down to nearest lower whole number.

N = 37

The maximum number of people who could fit in this room is 37

The graph of the function f(x)=x^2-4x+6 is shown here. What is it’s axis of symmetry

Answers

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you didn't attach an image of the graph I'll have to do this the long way and use a strategy called "completing the square" to find the vertex. The x-coordinate of the vertex is the axis of symmetry.

x² - 4x + 6

= (x - 2)² - 4 + 6

= (x - 2)² + 2, therefore the vertex is (2, 2) so the axis of symmetry is x = 2.

In triangle ABC, the right angle is at vertex C, a = 714 cm and the measure of angle A is 78° . To the nearest cm, what is the length of side c?

Answers

Answer:

c = 730 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we just need to use the law of sines:

The ratio between a side in the triangle and its opposite angle is always the same.

So we have that:

[tex]a / sin(A) = c / sin(C)[/tex]

[tex]714 / sin(78) = c / sin(90)[/tex]

sin(78) is equal 0.9781 and sin(90) is equal 1, so we have:

[tex]714 / 0.9781 = c / 1[/tex]

[tex]c = 714 / 0.9781 = 730\ cm[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle XBC = 55 degrees because it is a corresponding angle with Angle AXC

and corresponding angles are equal or congruent.

Ok so angle XBC = 55 degrees and since this an isosceles triangle

XBC = XCB which means XCB = 55 degrees

Now to find angle BXC we know that all angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

Angle XBC + Angle XCB + Angle BXC = 180 degrees

Let x represent angle BXC

55 + 55 + x = 180

110 + x = 180

x = 180 - 110

x = 70

∴ Angle BXC = 70 degrees
