The elevation of city A is 72 feet above sea level; the elevation of city C is 24 feet above sea level. The elevation of city D is 1/4
of the elevation of city C.
Part A: Write an expression to represent the elevation, in feet, of city D.
Part B: Simplify the expression and explain why the answer is negative or positive.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

If city c is 24 ft above sea level and city d is 1/4 of the elevation all you do is find 1/4 of 24  so the expression would be 1/4 x 24

im not really good at simplifying expressions but it would probably stay the same so the answer would be positive.

hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Answer:

  A. 1/4×24 ft

  B. 6 ft, the product has no negative factors that would make it negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

1/4 of the elevation of city C can be written as ...

  (1/4)(24 ft)

__

B.

When the expression is simplified, it becomes ...

  6 ft

The product of two positive numbers is positive.

The table shows the total amounts y (in thousands of dollars) of money a homeowner saves on electric bills x years after installing solar panels.

a. Write an equation that models the total amount of money saved as a function of the number of years after the solar panels were installed.

y = _______

b. Interpret the slope and y-intercept of the line of fit.

Answers

The slope of the line means that the homeowner saves 1.6 thousand dollars per year while the y intercept means that the cost of installing the solar panels is 12 thousand dollars.

A linear equation is given by:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change, b is the initial value of y (y intercept).

Let y represent the total money in thousand dollar saved for x years.

Taking the points (0, -12) and  (20, 20).

The equation is given as:

[tex]y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-(-12)=\frac{20-(-12)}{20-0} (x-0)\\\\y+12=1.6x \\\\y=1.6x-12[/tex]

1: AOB is 180 degrees   2: AOF + FOG = 180 degrees 3: 60 + 90 + 30 + 180 4: x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 15

Add up 5x - 15 + 90 + 2x = 180 degrees

FOG = 90 degrees (right angle)

Combine like terms to get 7x + 75 = 180

subtract 75 on both sides to get 7x = 105

Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x to get x = 15

Substitute 15 for every x you see so 5(15) - 15 and 2(15)

5(15) - 15 = 60

2(15) = 30

Which is the correct translation of the sentence into an equation?

Four less than a number is 12.

A: n-12=4
B: n-4=12
C: 4-n=12
D: 12-n=4

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

n is a number. 4 less then that number translates to n-4, so the answer is B:

n-4=12

Hope that helps! :)

Answer:

C: n-4= 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To understand why this answer is correct, lets break down the sentence.

Four less = [tex]4-[/tex]The part "than a number" can be represented as n as in math, unknown numbers are variables in order to isolate them to and figure out their values. "is 12" will represent the sum of the equation as the sentence is clarifying that that 4 minus the variable n is equal to 12.

Revised Answer: n-4=12 is actually the answer as n can be any quantity, and n -4 =12 literally means n + (-4) = 12.

(-1, 5) (3,y) m=5 whats the value of my and whats the slope <3

Answers

Answer:

slope: 5

y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is m, and m = 5, so slope is 5.

y-5=5(x+1)...........set up point slope form

y-5=5x+5............distribute 5

y=5x+10..............add 5 to both sides

y=5(3)+10............plug in 3

y=25.....................simplify

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure you posted the question correctly.

m is the slope already. this comes from the point slope form

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where x1, y1 are the coordinates of a point on the line.

so, the slope is 5 (and cannot be <3).

so, using the first point we get

y - 5 = 5(x - -1) = 5(x + 1) = 5x + 5

therefore

y = 5x + 10

for (3, y) we put 3 in as x

y = 5×3 + 10 = 15 + 10 = 25

it is (3, 25) for m = 5.

Which system of inequalities is shown?

a.y > x
y > 2

b. y > x
y < 2

c. y < x
y < 2

d. y < x
y > 2

Answers

Answer: Choice C

y < x

y < 2

==================================================

Explanation:

The horizontal line is y = 2 since all points on this line have a y coordinate of 2. Eg: (0,2) and (5,2)

Since we shade everything below this line, we're describing the inequality y < 2. All points in the shaded region for this describe anything with a y coordinate smaller than 2. Eg: (7,1)

-------------

At the same time, we're also shading below the line y = x to form the inequality y < x.

So that's how we end up with this system

[tex]\begin{cases}y < x\\y < 2\\\end{cases}[/tex]

which describes the set of all points below the lines y = 2 and y = x. The dashed lines indicate that points on the boundary do not count as solution points. For example, (5,2) is not a solution because it rests on the upper horizontal boundary.

A parking garage charges $5. 50 to park for 4 hours and $7. 75 to park for 7 hours. If the cost is a linear function of the number of hours parked, what is the cost to park for 3 hours? $2. 25 $2. 50 $3. 25 $4. 75.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given 2 coordinates.

so in a linear equation, we have the given function:

y=mx+b

thus we should have an x value and a y value.

So let's set x to be the hours and y be the cost

With 2 sets of coordinates, we can solve for the slope (m in the function) of the function using rise/run or y1-y2/x1-x2

so with that being said,

7.75-5.5/7-4=m

2.25/3=m

.75=m

This is our slope.

Our formula will look like this: y=0.75x

Now we can determine how much it will cost in 3 hours by changing x to be 3 since x is the number of hours parked

y=0.75(3)

y=2.25

The cost to park for 3 hours will be $2.25

Two sisters share an inheritance of $1 million by a ratio of 2:3. How much does each sister inherit

Answers

Answer:

$400,000 and $600,000

Step-by-step explanation:

2x = one sister amount

3x = the other sister amount

Total money = $1,000,000

5x = 1,000,000

 x =  1,000,000/5

 x = 200,000

2x = 2(200,000)  = $400,000

3x = 3(200,000) = $600,000

Check:  one sister amount + the other sister amount = $1, 000,000

              $400,000 + $600,000 = $1,000,000

ratio 2:3=2+3=5

so the first sisters share is

(2/5×1,000,000)

=200,000×2

=400,000.....thats the first sisters share

so....the second sister's share is

(3/5×1,000,000)

=3×200,000

=600,000.....thats the second sisters share

and to check if your answer is correct

you can add both of their shares

600,000+400,000=1,000,000.

we have 180 because all three angles of any triangle equal 180.

solving for x:
