The cost $y$ (in dollars) to rent a kayak is proportional to the number $x$ of hours that you rent the kayak. It costs $27 to rent the kayak for 5 hours

Answers

Answer 1

Note: Consider we need to find the constant of proportionality.

Given:

The cost y (in dollars) to rent a kayak is proportional to the number x of hours that you rent the kayak.

It costs $27 to rent the kayak for 5 hours.

To find:

The constant of proportionality.

Solution:

The cost y (in dollars) to rent a kayak is proportional to the number x of hours that you rent the kayak.

[tex]y\propto x[/tex]

[tex]y=kx[/tex]

where, k is constant of proportionality.

It costs $27 to rent the kayak for 5 hours. So, put x=5 and y=27 in the above equation.

[tex]27=k(5)[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5.

[tex]\dfrac{27}{5}=k[/tex]

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is [tex]\dfrac{27}{5}[/tex].

unit, that will minimize the average cost Č(x) per unit.
A. 1733 scooters
B.
1250 scooters
C. 600 scooters
D.
1500 scooters

Answers

Answer:

A. 1733 scooters

Step-by-step explanation:

To get x for minimum value of C bar, set derivative = 0

We Find our x.

C(x) = 600+ 0.05x + 0.0002x^2

We need average cos per unit

So divide by x both sides

C(x) / x = 600/x + 0.05x + 0.0002x

c(x)/c = Ç(x)

Therefore, Ç(x) = 600/x + 0.05x + 0.0002x

Now differentiate both side with x

dÇ(x)/dx = 600/x^2 + 0 + 0.0002

To find x for minimum Ç(x)

Set dÇ(x)/dx = 0 => -600/x^2 + 0.0002 = 0

=> x^2 = 600/0.0002

x^2 =3000000

x = √3000000

x = 1732.05

x = 1733

What is quadrilateral?

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides, four vertices, and four angles that is only two dimensional. Convex and concave are the two main forms. Convex quadrilaterals can also be divided into a number of subgroups, including trapezoids, parallelograms, rectangles, rhombus, and squares.

Given that,

Quadrilateral ABCD is reflected over a line y

Hence preimage = ABCD and image = TURS

After reflection,

The new position of A = T

New position of B =U

New position of C = R and

New position of D = S

By transformation properties,

For reflection the scale factor is 1 and hence AB will have the same length as TU

Since,

AB = 7 inches,

Therefore,

TU = 7 inches.

What similarity property, if any, can be used to show that the following two triangles are similar.

Answers

They both have right angles and have the same angles overall. Essentially they are the same size, one is just expanded bigger than the other. It might be dilation. The inside line so indicate the similarity in angle sizes.

Answer:

The angles

Step-by-step explanation:

On both triangles, there is a square in the corner which means that both angles are 90 degrees, and then on the left side of the triangle, there are two signs that are the sames meaning those two have the same angle measurement. Based on this knowledge I know that the last angle of the triangle must also be the same degrees since both triangles follow the same equation 90+a+b=180. I know that all angle measurements from one triangle must equal 180. So these are the same triangles with different sizes.
