Answer:
(A)
- P(60) = 78.98
- When the bookstore spends $60 on a textbook, the student pays $78.98
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
P(x) = 1.053(x+0.25x)
P(60) = 1.053(60+0.25*60)
=1.053(60+15)
=1.053(75)
P(60)=$78.98
Since x is the cost from the publisher, when the bookstore spends $60 on a textbook, the student pays $78.98.
<u>The correct option is A.</u>
Answer: This is a guess I am not that smart
c. Both have been impacted by overgrazing and radioactive pollution.
Answer:
y=-1/2x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, the slope of perpendicular line have negative reciprocal coefficients. In this case the coefficient is 2, The reciprocal of 2 is 1/2 and the negative of 1/2 is -1/2. So x will have a coefficient of -1/2.
Second, find the equation with a slope of -1/2 that passes through (-2,3). There are a few ways to do this. I like to plug the given x value into the expression -1/2x, so -1/2(-2) which equals positive 1 and for the line to pass through the point (-2,3) you need to add 2. So: y=-1/2x+2
