Mario earns money mowing his neighbors' lawns.The revenue for mowing x lawns is (X) = 25x.
Mario's cost for gas and the mower rental is (x) = 6x + 15.
His profit from mowing x lawns is p(x) = (r- c)(X). What is p(x)?
A. p(x) = 31x+15
B. p(x) = 19x - 15
C. p(x) = 19x+ 15
O D. p(x) = 31x- 15

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

His profit from mowing x lawns is 19x-15

Step-by-step explanation:

Revenue for mowing x lawns = 25x

Cost for gas and the mower rental = 6x+15

We are supposed to find His profit from mowing x lawns

p(x) denotes His profit from mowing x lawns

Profit = Revenue - Cost

So,p(x)=25x-(6x+15)

p(x)=25x-6x-15

p(x)=19x-15

So, Option B is true

Hence His profit from mowing x lawns is 19x-15

If y is 12 when x is 5, find x when y is 30

Answers

We have no idea how 'x' responds to changes in 'y'.
We don't even know their units, to make a guess with.

-- If 'x' and 'y' are the ages of two people, then when y = 30, 'x' will be 23.

-- If they are the frequency and wavelength of a wave on the lake,
then when y = 30, 'x' will be 2 .

-- If 'x' is the weight of a rock in your front yard and 'y' is the number of pages
in today's newspaper, then 'y' has no effect on 'x'. No matter what happens
to 'y' . . . 'x' will always be 5 .

With the information given in the question, we just don't know.

We need either an equation, or else one more example.

Answers

ok so to find best price, find cost per unit or unit rate

so what we do is
(amount of flower x batches)/x and divide out
when dividng fractions, just invert the second one and multiply, example
3/4 divided by 5/6=3/4 times 6/5=18/20 so

A.1/2 cup for 2/3, (1/2)/(2/3), 1/2 times 3/2, 3/4 cup per batch

B. 1/3 per 1/4 batch, (1/3)/(1/4), 1/3 times 4/1, 4/3 cup per batch=1 and 1/3

C. 2/3 cup for 1/2 batch, (2/3)/(1/2), 2/3 times 2/1, 4/3 cp per batch=1 and 1/3

D. 3/4 cup per 2/3 batch, (3/4)/(2/3), 3/4 times 3/2, 9/8 cup per batch=1 and 18/

lowest unit rate is 3/4 cup per batch since others are greater than 1

answer is A

What is the rate of this graph

Answers

Answer: slope = -3/2

Explanation

Two points on the diagonal line are (0,0) and (4,-6).

To go from (0,0) to (4,-6) we do two things:

Go down 6
Go right 4

"Down 6, right 4" means the slope is -6/4 = -3/2

We could also use the slope formula to get the same answer.

$(x_1,y_1) = (0,0) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2) = (4,-6)\n\nm = \text{slope} = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{\text{change in y}}{\text{change in x}}\n\nm = \frac{\text{y}_(2) - \text{y}_(1)}{\text{x}_(2) - \text{x}_(1)}\n\nm = (-6 - 0)/(4 - 0)\n\nm = (-6)/(4)\n\nm = -(3)/(2)\n\n$
