Answer:

The lines moves lower.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steepness of a line is related to the slope, m.

b is the y-intercept, not the slope.

b is where the line intersects the y-axis.

Changing b changes the vertical position of the line.

Answer: The lines moves lower.

Answer:

p(x) = f(x) - g(x) = -0.04x² + 20.96x - 71

Explanation:

The sales are given by f(x) = 24.96x and the cost are represented by g(x) = 0.04x² + 4x + 71.

Then, the profit is equal to

p(x) = f(x) - g(x)

p(x) = 24.96x - (0.04x² + 4x + 71)

p(x) = 24.96x - 0.04x² - 4x - 71

p(x) = -0.04x² + 20.96x - 71

Therefore, the answer is

p(x) = f(x) - g(x) = -0.04x² + 20.96x - 71

Answer:

0.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnifying glass basically zooms into smaller objects. If the insect appears to be 2cm, then it is actually smaller than this. It cannot be 10 cm.

If the scale factor is 5, then this means that the insect is zoomed in 5 times through the magnifying glass. Use the following ratio:

$\frac{2}{5}$

This fraction can also be seen as division, so:

$2$ ÷ $5=0.4$

The insect is actually 0.4 cm long.

(or 4 millimeters)

Erin has 1 7/8 pounds of trail mix. She wants to make 1/12-pound bags of the mix for snacks. How many full bags can she make?

Andreyy89

For this question , you just need to divide 1 7/8 with 1/12

1 7/8 : 1/12

= 15/8 : 1/12

= 15/8 x 12/1

= 22.5 bags.

So i guess she can make around 22 full bags

hope this helps
