Charlie is installing new carpet in his rectangular living room, which is 5 feet longer than it is wide. He has received quotes for the total
installation costs from two different contractors for the same style of carpet.
Contractor A charges an installation fee of $125 plus $2 per square foot for the carpet.
Contractor B charges an installation fee of $75 plus $2.50 per square foot for the carpet.
Based on this information, which system of equations could be used to determine the width of the living room, x, in feet, at which the
quote for the installation costs, y, is the same for both companies?

Answer:

A)  3%

B)  Product A

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Function

General form of an exponential function: [tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

where:

If b > 1 then it is an increasing function

If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function

Part A

Product A

Assuming the function for Product A is exponential:

[tex]f(x) = 0.69(1.03)^x[/tex]

The base (b) is 1.03.  As b > 1 then it is an increasing function.

To calculate the percentage increase/decrease, subtract 1 from the base:

⇒ 1.03 - 1 = 0.03 = 3%

Therefore, product A is increasing by 3% each year.

Part B

[tex]\sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{final\:value-initial\:value}{initial\:value} \times 100[/tex]

To calculate the percentage change in Product B, use the percentage change formula with two consecutive values of f(t) from the given table:

[tex]\implies \sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{10201-10100}{10100}\times 100=1\%[/tex]

Check using different two consecutive values of f(t):

[tex]\implies \sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{10303.01-10201}{10201}\times 100=1\%[/tex]

Therefore, as 3% > 1%, Product A recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous year.

Although the question has not asked, we can use the given information to easily create an exponential function for Product B.

Given:

[tex]\implies f(t) = 10100(1.01)^{t-1}[/tex]

To check this, substitute the values of t for 1 through 4 into the found function:

[tex]\implies f(1) = 10100(1.01)^{1-1}=10100[/tex]

[tex]\implies f(2) = 10100(1.01)^{2-1}=10201[/tex]

[tex]\implies f(3) = 10100(1.01)^{3-1}=10303.01[/tex]

[tex]\implies f(4) = 10100(1.01)^{4-1}=10406.04[/tex]

As these values match the values in the given table, this confirms that the found function for Product B is correct and that Product B increases by 1% per year.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+8) - 1 = 3x+4

3x+24-1 = 3x+4

3x+23 = 3x+4

There are no solutions since both equations have the same slope meaning they are parallel and they will never intersect since they have different y-intercepts.

The percentage discount on the item will be equal to 8%.

The Percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to the 100. It is denoted by the sign %.

Given that:-

The percentage of the discount will be calculated as:-

Percentage discount = ( 17 - 16.64 ) / ( 17 )

Percentage discount= ( 1.36 ) / ( 17 )

Percentage discount = 0.08 x 100 = 8%

Therefore the percentage discount on the item will be equal to 8%.

The correct answer is option A which is  Observational study.

This is an example of an observational study because the biologist is not interfering or interacting with the subjects of the study but just watching and registering data (recording with cameras).

The biologist is not conducting an experiment because (he is not setting up special conditions to register different responses to drive conclusions), and the biologist is not making any survey (questionnaires for example).

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of y is 11 if the measure of the angle (x + 6y) is 90 degree and x = 24 option first is correct.

Lines that intersect at a right angle are named perpendicular lines. Lines that are always the same distance apart from each other known as parallel lines.

We have a perpendicular line shown in the picture.

The measure of the angle (4x - 6) is equal to 90 degree.

4x - 6 = 90

4x = 96

x = 24

Similarly, the measure of the angle (x + 6y) is equal to 90 degree:

x + 6y = 90

Plug x = 24

24 + 6y = 90

y = 11

Thus, the value of y is 11 if the measure of the angle (x + 6y) is 90 degree and x = 24 option first is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are given choices, you should list them please. Otherwise we cannot be certain our answers are taken far enough.

The general formula for expanding a binomial raised to the third power is

(a - b)^3 = a^3 - 3a^2b + 3ab^2 - b^3

Solution

To modify the general formula to suit this problem, let

a = 3m

b = - 4

When that is done, the general equation becomes

(3m)^3 - 3* (3m)^2 * 4 + 3 * 3m * 4^2 - 4^3

(3m - 4)^3 = 27m^3 - 108 m^2 + 144m - 64

Multiply everything in the 4-nomial by 3m^3

(27m^3 - 108 m^2 + 144m - 64)3m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is 4, meaning the integers are 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 etc. But then the last point is seen to be 40, meaning the answer is C because it is from 0-40 with a slope of 4.

The parabola with the minimum at (4, -3) is the third option:

[tex]y = 0.5*x^2 - 4x + 5[/tex]

Remember that for a parabola of the form:

[tex]y = a*x^2 + b*x + c[/tex]

If a > 0, the minimum is at the x-value of the vertex:

[tex]x = \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]

If a < 0, there is no minimum (so we discard option 2).

Taking the third option:

[tex]y = 0.5*x^2 - 4x + 5[/tex]

The x-value of the vertex is:

[tex]x = \frac{-(-4)}{2*0.5} = 4[/tex]

As expected.

To get the y-value of the vertex (and minimum) we just evaluate the parabola equation in x = 4.

[tex]y = 0.5*(4)^2 - 4*4 + 5 = -3[/tex]

So the minimum is at (4, -3), as expected, so that is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

6x + 3y = 7 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

3y = - 6x + 7 ( divide terms by 3 )

y = - 2x + [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex] → in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 2

y = - 2x + 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 2

since both lines have equal slopes then they are parallel lines
