In 1990, the cost of tuition at a large Midwestern university was $95 per credit hour. In 1999, tuition had risen to $221 per credit hour. Determine a linear function C(x) to represent the cost of tuition as a function of x, the number of years since 1990 C(x)= *answer here*

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost of tuition as a function of x, the number of years since 1990, is C(x)= 14*(x-1990) + 95

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function is a polynomial function of the first degree that has the following form:

y= m*x + b

where

m is the slope of the function n is the ordinate (at the origin) of the function

So, in this case: C(x)= m*( x-1990) + b where x is the number of years since 1990.

Given the coordinates of two points, it is possible to determine the slope m of the line from them using the following formula:

[tex]m=\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}[/tex]

In this case, you know that in 1990, the cost of tuition at a large Midwestern university was $95 per credit hour. And in 1999, tuition had risen to $221 per credit hour. So:

x1= 1990y1= 95x2= 1999y2= 221

So the value of m is:

[tex]m=\frac{221 - 95}{1999 - 1990}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{126}{9}[/tex]

m= 14

So C(x)= 14*( x-1990) + b. In 1999, tuition had risen to $221 per credit hour. Replacing:

221= 14*(1999 - 1990) + b

221= 14*9 +b

221= 126 + b

221 - 126= b

95= b

Finally, the cost of tuition as a function of x, the number of years since 1990, is C(x)= 14*(x-1990) + 95

Edmund and Lucy go to a toy shop. Edmund does not have enough money to buy the toy he wants. He says to Lucy, 'If you give me ₹ 40, I can buy my toy. But you will have ₹ 10 less to buy your toy." How much money does Lucy have?

Answers

Answer and explanation:

Assuming Edmund has $0

From Edmund, we know the toy costs $40(assuming it's in dollars)

Lucy gives him $40 and has $10 less($40-$10) to buy her own toy

Therefore Lucy had $40+$30= $70 before giving Edmund $40 for his toy.

Lucy currently has $70-$40 =$30, therefore needs $10 more to buy her own toy

How many solutions does the equation

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (6x - 4) = 3(1 - x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

1 - 3x + 2 = 3 - 3x

3 - 3x = 3 - 3x

Since both sides of the equation are the same , then

This indicates the equation has infinitely many solutions.

there are 24 students in a class. among them 8 are girl.
a.find the ratio of boys and girls
b.find the ratio of girls and boys​

Answers

Answer:

A    2:1

B    1:2

Step-by-step explanation:

If there is 24 students and 8 are girls, then 24 - 8 tells you how many are boys.

24 - 8 =  16.

There are 16 boys.

If there is 16 boys and 8 girls, the ratio would be 2 : 1 or 2/1 or 2 because 16  and 8 have a common factor of 8, so both sides can be divided by 8.

Hence the 8 : 2.

Ratios are commonly expressed with a colon, so that is going to be the symbol I'm using to differenciate the numbers.

We can just reverse the ratio since the original was boys to girls, but it is now girls to boys.

Stationary points. Help ASAP please. Thanks

Answers

You can use the power rule for derivatives for each problem (though you could also use the product rule for the fourth curve).

y = x ² + 6x - 1   ==>   dy/dx = 2x + 6

y = x ² - 5x + 1   ==>   dy/dx = 2x - 5

y = 2 - 4x - x ²   ==>   dy/dx = -4 - 2x

y = (1 + x) (7 - x) = 7 + 6x - x ²   ==>   dy/dx = 6 - 2x

--

or, using the product rule,

dy/dx = (1 + x) (-1) + 1 (7 - x) = -1 - x + 7 - x = 6 - 2x

--

Now, stationary points occur where the derivative is zero. We have

2x + 6 = 0   ==>   x = -3

2x - 5 = 0   ==>   x = 5/2

-4 - 2x = 0   ==>   x = -2

6 - 2x = 0   ==>   x = 3

Un capital de S/. 42.000 colocado a una tasa de interés del 7% capitalizable anualmente, ¿en cuántos meses produce un interés de S/. 8 700?

Answers

Answer:

Se requiere 34 meses para producir un interés de 8700 soles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Asumamos que el capital aumenta conforme a una tasa de interés compuesto, cuya fórmula se describe aquí abajo:

[tex]C = C_{o}\cdot \left(1 + \frac{r}{100} \right)^{t}[/tex] (1)

Donde:

[tex]C_{o}[/tex] - Capital inicial, en soles.

[tex]C[/tex] - Capital actual, en soles.

[tex]r[/tex] - Tasa de interés mensual, en [tex]\frac{1}{a}[/tex].

[tex]t[/tex] - Período de capitalización, en años.

Si sabemos que [tex]C_{o} = 42000[/tex], [tex]C = 50700[/tex] y [tex]r = 7\,\frac{\%}{a}[/tex], entonces el período de capitalización es:

[tex]C = C_{o}\cdot \left(1 + \frac{r}{100} \right)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{C}{C_{o}} = \left(1 + \frac{r}{100}\right)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]\ln \frac{C}{C_{o}} = t\cdot \ln \left(1 + \frac{r}{100}\right)[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\ln C - \ln C_{o}}{\ln \left(1+\frac{r}{100} \right)}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\ln 50700 - \ln 42000}{\ln \left(1+\frac{7}{100} \right)}[/tex]

[tex]t = 2.782\,yr[/tex]

Es decir, se requiere 34 meses para producir un interés de 8700 soles.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,−1) that is parallel to the line 2x−3y=9

Answers

First we find the slope of the line 2x−3y+8=0 by placing it into slope intercept form:

2x−3y+8=0

⇒−3y=−2x−8

⇒3y=2x+8

⇒y=

) is

y−y

⇒3(y−3)=2(x−2)

⇒2x−3y=−5

Hence, the equation of the line is 2x−3y=−5.

Answer:

y=2/3x-11/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the equation 2x-3y=9 and we want to write an equation that is parallel to it and that passes through (4,-1)

Parallel lines have the same slopes

So we need to first find the slope of 2x-3y=9

We can do this by converting the equation of the line from standard form (ax+by=c where a, b, and c are integers) to slope-intercept form (y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

To do this, we need to isolate y on one side

2x-3y=9

subtract 2x from both sides

-3y=-2x+9

divide both sides by -3

y=2/3x-3

as 2/3 is in the place where m is, 2/3 is the slope of the line

It's also the slope of the line parallel to it that passes through (4,-1).

Here's the equation of that line so far:

y=2/3x+b

now we need to find b

as the line will pass through the point (4,-1), we can  4 as x and -1 as y in order to solve for b

-1=2/3(4)+b

multiply

-1=8/3+b

subtract 8/3 to both sides

-11/3=b

Substitute -11/3 as b into the equation

y=2/3x-11/3

There's the equation

Hope this helps!

Answers

Answer:

[tex]7 + a = \sqrt{7b + c}[/tex] --- equation

[tex]a = 3; b =5\ and\ c = 65[/tex] --- the equation is true for these values

[tex]a = 4; b=5\ and\ c = 10[/tex] --- the equation is extraneous for these values

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x +2 = \sqrt{3x + 10[/tex]

[tex]x + a = \sqrt{bx + c}[/tex]

Solving (a): Equation to solve for a, b and c, using trial by error where [tex]x = 7[/tex]

We have:

[tex]x + a = \sqrt{bx + c}[/tex]

Substitute 7 for x

[tex]7 + a = \sqrt{7b + c}[/tex] --- This is the equation

Solving (b): Solve for a, b and c --- to make the equation true

[tex]7 + a = \sqrt{7b + c}[/tex]

Let a = 3 ----- Here, we choose a value for a

[tex]7 + 3 = \sqrt{7b + c}[/tex]

[tex]10 = \sqrt{7b + c}[/tex]

Square both sides

[tex]100 = 7b + c[/tex]

Let b = 5 --------- Here, we choose a value for b

[tex]100 = 7*5 + c[/tex]

[tex]100 = 35 + c[/tex]

Subtract 35 from both sides

[tex]c = 65[/tex]

So, [tex]x + a = \sqrt{bx + c}[/tex] is true for

[tex]a = 3; b =5\ and\ c = 65[/tex]

Solving (b): Solve for a, b and c --- to make the equation false

[tex]7 + a = \sqrt{7b + c}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]a = 4; b=5\ and\ c = 10[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]7 + 4 = \sqrt{7*5 + 10}[/tex]

[tex]11 = \sqrt{35 + 10}[/tex]

Square both sides

[tex]121 = 45[/tex] --- This is false

i.e.

Recall that a kite in geometry is any four sided figure where we have two different pairs of adjacent sides that are the same length.

We're told that PS = 4.5 and RS = 6. So this isn't an adjacent pair of congruent sides. But we can say that PS and PQ are one pair of adjacent congruent sides. That makes PQ to be 4.5 cm long.

Similarly, RS = RQ = 6 is the other pair of adjacent congruent sides. Notice that triangle PQR reflects over line PR to get triangle PSR.

3x+3y = 5............(2)

(1) + (2)

2x - 3y + 3x + 3y = 5+5
