B
The company charges an initial fee of $45.00.
The cost increases by $8.50 for each person who attends the event.
The cost increases by $45.00 for each person who attends the event.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost increases by $8.50 for each person who attends the event.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The company charges an initial fee of $45.00

The cost increases by $8.50 for each person who attends the event.

The correct options are B and C

As per the given data:

The equation y = 8.50x + 45.00 can be used to predict the cost of the meals if x people attend the event.

By comparing this equation with the slope intercept form y = mx + c

slope(m) = 8.50

We can find out the initial fee charged by the company by substituting

x = 0 {zero people}

y = 8.50(0) + 45.00

y = $45.00

For increase in cost with each person attending the event:

Cost for 2 persons - Cost for 1 person

= 8.50(2) + 45.00 - [8.50(1) + 45.00]

= 8.50(2) - 8.50(1)

= $8.50

This is the slope of the line

Hence, The company charges an initial fee of $45.00 and the cost increases by $8.50 for each person who attends the event.

Alg I Trad Bench 1 Laurel MS 2020-2021 Section 1 8 of 308 of 30 Items Item 8 A taxi service charges a flat rate for the first 3 miles of service. For any additional mileage, the taxi service charges an additional rate per mile, x. The expression 10+2.50(x−3) represents the scenario.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

First 3 miles = flat rate

Subsequent miles = additional rate per mile x

Equation which represents the scenario :

10 + 2.50(x - 3)

If the amount charged by the taxi service for a certain trip is

10 + 2.50(x - 3)

Then. ;

10 = the flat rate charged for the first 3 seconds

2.50 = additional mile charge

x = total trip distance

Hence, (x - 3) = (total trip distance - first 3 miles) = additional miles traveled

Peyton recorded her height twice a year. She grew 5 1/4 inches in 3 1/2 years. What was Peyton’s average growth rate per year?

Answers

Height in which Peyton grew in 3 ½ years = 5 ¼ inches

Height Peyton grows each year =

= 5 ¼ ÷ 3 ½

= 21/4 ÷ 7/2

= 21/4 × 2/7 ( division of fractions is the same as multiplication with reciprocal )

= 42/28

Let us simplify this by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2 .

= 42 ÷ 2 / 28 ÷ 2

= 21/14

= 1 7/14 inches

Peyton's average growth rate per year was 1 7/14 per year . Let us simplify it .

= Both 7 and 14 are divisible by 2 .

So , 1 whole 7 ÷ 2 / 14 ÷ 2

= 1 whole 1/2

= 1 1/2

Therefore , Peyton's average growth rate per year was 1 1/2 inches .

An aquarium is being filled at a rate of 2.5 inches per second. The equationLaTeX: y=2.5xy = 2.5 x is used to determine the height of the water after LaTeX: xx seconds. Find the domain and range of the situation if it takes 60 seconds to fill the aquarium.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation y = 2,5x

y is the height of the water

x is the time.

To get the range of values of the height at t = 60s, we will substitute x = 60 into the function

y = 2.5(60)

y = 150 in

Hence the range of the situation is [0, 150].

Answers

Answer:

The ratio of triangles to squares is 2 to 4

There are two squares for every triangle.

There are three smiley faces for every triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of triangles, smiley and squares are shown in the diagram attached.

From the diagram, there are 6 smiley faces, 2 triangles and 4 squares.

A ratio compare two or more values, thereby showing how many times one number contains the other.

A) Correct. The ratio of triangles to squares = number of triangle / number of square = 2 / 4 = 2 to 4

B) Incorrect. The ratio of squares to smiley faces = number of square / number of smiley face = 4 / 6 = 4 to 6

C) Incorrect. The ratio of smiley faces to triangles = number of smiley faces / number of triangles = 6 / 2 = 6 to 2

D) Correct. Since the ratio of squares to triangles =  number of squares / number of triangle = 4 / 2 = 2 / 1 = 2 to 1, hence there are two squares for every triangle

E) Incorrect. Since the ratio of triangles to smiley faces =  number of triangle / number of smiley faces = 2 / 6 = 1 / 3 = 1 to 3, hence there is one triangle for every 3 smiley faces

F) Correct. Since the ratio of smiley faces to triangles =  number of smiley faces / number of triangles = 6 / 2 = 3 / 1 = 3 to 1, hence there is 3 smiley faces for every one triangle

Line segment EF is shown on a coordinate grid: A coordinate plane is shown. Line segment EF has endpoints negative 3 comma 2 and negative 1 comma 2. The line segment is rotated 180 degrees counterclockwise about the origin to form E'F'. Which statement describes E'F'? E'F' is perpendicular to EF. E'F' and EF are equal in length. E'F' is half the length of EF. E'F' is greater than twice the length of EF.

Answer:

The answer is " E'F' and EF are equal in length".

By rotating that through some degree, a revolution is some kind of rigid transformation, which creates an image of the very same shape and size. There will be two main properties of the rotation:

Preservation of rotating scale (including sides and angles). The lines connecting the rotation center to the pre-image and the corresponding image point are of equal length.

The cost C, in dollars, for delivered pizza depends on the number p of pizzas ordered. The situation is represented by the function rule C equals 5 plus 9 p. Would the graph be continuous or discrete? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer: discrete

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph would be discrete, because you can only order a whole number of pizzas. This means you cannot have 0.4 of a pizza or 3/5 of a pizza. Therefore, p can only be whole numbers, so you cannot draw a line through the points, since prices for non-whole pizzas are not possible.  

the length of the swimming pool is 8 m longer than its width and the area is 105 m squared write in quadratic equation ​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the swimming pool is 8m longer than it's width.

If we say L = length, W = width

From the information above, we can say

L= 8 + w

We are also told the area is 105 m squared.

Note:

Area of a Rectangle = Length x Width

105 =  (8 + w ) x w

[tex]105 = 8w + w^2\\[/tex]

Subtract 105 from both sides:

[tex]w^2 + 8w - 105 = 0[/tex]

Bobby's cat runs x mph. Bobby's dog runs twice as fast as his cat.
If cat and dog start running away from each other how far away from each other will they be after 30 minutes?

Answers

Answer;

They will be 0.5x miles away from each other

Explanation;

Since the dog runs twice the speed of the cat

Its speed will be 2 * x = 2x mph

Now we want to know how far they will be from each other after 30 minutes

Kindly note that 30 minutes is 1/2 hour

Mathematically;

distance = speed * time

Distance of cat = x * 1/2 = 0.5x miles

Distance of dog = 2x * 0.5 = x miles

The dog is x - 0.5x miles = 0.5x miles away from the cat

They will be 0.5x miles away from each other.

Calculation of the distance:

Since Bobby's cat runs x mph. Bobby's dog runs twice as fast as his cat.

So here the speed of the dog should be 2x

Now we know that

[tex]Distance = speed \times time\\\\[/tex]

Here distance of cat should be x of 30 minutes or half hour = 0.5x miles

And, Distance of dog should be 2x of 0.5 = x miles

So, the difference should be

= x - 0.5

= 0.5x miles

hence, They will be 0.5x miles away from each other.
