Answer:
(A) The rate of change in the price of a bushel of corn in the current year is $7.
(B) The price of a bushel of corn in the current year is $2 more than the price of a bushel of corn in the previous year.
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph for the prices of different numbers of bushels of corn at a store in the current year is shown below.
Part A:
The rate of change in the price of a bushel of corn in the current year based upon the number of bushels is known as the slope of the line.
The formula to compute the slope is:
Consider the ordered pairs: (4, 28) and (10, 70)
Compute the slope of the line as follows:
Thus, the rate of change in the price of a bushel of corn in the current year is $7.
Part B:
The data for the price of bushels in the previous year is as follows:
Number of Bushels Price
2 10
4 20
6 30
8 40
Compute the rate of change in the price of a bushel of corn in the previous year based upon the number of bushels as follows:
Consider the ordered pairs: (2, 10) and (6, 30)
The rate of change in the price of a bushel of corn in the previous year is $5.
Thus, the price of a bushel of corn in the current year is $2 more than the price of a bushel of corn in the previous year.
Answer:
$537.60
Step-by-step explanation:
12% increase is the same as multiplying by 1.12, 480*1.12=537.60
Hi there! :)
A radical equation is an equation in which a variable (ex. x, y, a, v) is under a radical sign. The only equation that has a variable under a radical (x) is the second option. There is an x next to the 2 under the radical.
I hope this helps, DM me if you have anymore questions. :)
