A bus company took a tour bus on the ferry when there were 30 people aboard. The ferry charged the bus company $180. The following week, the bus had 50 people on board and the ferry charged them $220. How much is the "base rate" for the empty bus? hint: look at the difference between number of people and cost to get cost per person and then cost without people
How much does each person cost?
Write an equation to show cost, c, of a bus with x number of people on it

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Base rate: $120

Rate: $2 per person

Equation: f(x)=2x+120

Step-by-step explanation:

If 30 people cost $180 and 50 people cost $220, the charge for 20 extra people is $40.  This means, [tex]\frac{220-180dollars}{50-30people}=\frac{40dollars}{20people}=2\frac{dollars}{person}[/tex].

These values correspond to a base rate for the bus of $120.

The function for the cost per bus with x number of people on it would be:

[tex]f(x)=2x+100[/tex]

This can be checked by using the values given in the problem:

[tex]f(30)=2(30)+120=180\\f(50)=2(50)+120=220[/tex]

The base rate of $120 and $2 per person satisfies the given equation and established values.

Answer:

  b=-9

  intersection point (3, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to do this. The method that does not involve calculus is to set the two equations equal and find 'b' such that there is exactly one solution.

  x^2 -4x = y = 2x +b

In standard form, this is ...

  x^2 -6x -b = 0 . . . . . . . we call this the "combined quadratic"

This will have one solution when the discriminant is zero. You may recall that the discriminant of quadratic ax^2 +bx +c is d = (b^2-4ac). We want ...

  d = (-6)^2 -4(1)(-b) = 0

  36 +4b = 0 . . . . . simplify

  b = -36/4 = -9 . . . solve for b

Then the linear equation is ...

  y = 2x -9

__

If the discriminant is zero, the solution to the "combined quadratic" is ...

  x = -b/(2a) . . . . . . . . with a, b, c from the quadratic form (not y-intercept)

  x = -(-6)/(2(1)) = 3

And the point of intersection of the line and the parabola is ...

  y = 2(3) -9 = -3   ⇒   (x, y) = (3, -3)

Which key features of the graph of two parallel lines are the same and which as different?

Answers

The two lines in the graph below are parallel lines: they will never intersect. Notice that they have exactly the same steepness which means their slopes are identical. The only difference between the two lines is the y-intercept. If we shifted one line vertically toward the y-intercept of the other, they would become the same line.

  min: $65

  per hour: $7.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation tells you Monica expects her pay to be $65 when she works 0 hours. That will be the minimum.

  y = 7.5·0 +65 = 65 . . . for 0 hours

It also tells you the pay is expected to go up by $7.50 if she works 1 hour. That will be her hourly rate.

  y = 7.5·1 +65 = 72.5 . . . for 1 hour; an increase of 7.50 over the minimum.

Minimum pay: $65

About how much cardboard is needed to make the inner tube for a roll of paper if the tube has a radius of 2.25 cm and is 24 cm long?
382 cm
339 cm?
679 cm
371 cm

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Cardboard needed to make tube =

Circumference of Circle base (remember the base is hollow therefore there is no area needed.) x Length of Tube

given r = 2.25cm

L = 24cm

Cardboard needed =

[tex]2\pi \: rl = \\ 2\pi(2.25)(24) \\ = 2\pi(54) \\ = 108\pi {cm}^{2} \\ = 339 {cm}^{2} [/tex]

The cardboard is needed to make the inner tube for a roll of paper if the tube has a radius of 2.25 cm and is 24 cm long will be 339 cm². Option B is correct.

What is surface area ?

The total land area of all the faces of a three-dimensional object is its surface area. When we wish to wrap something in real life, we employ the notion of surface areas of distinct things.

The cardboard is needed to make the inner tube for a roll of paper is found as;

Surface area of cardboard;

A=2πRL

A=2×3.14×(2.25)(24)

A=339 cm².

Hence,the cardboard is needed to make the inner tube for a roll of paper will be, 339 cm².
