A student and the marine biologist are together at t = 0. The student ascends more slowly than the marine biologist. Write an equation of a function that could represent the student's ascent. Please keep in mind the slope for the marine biologist is 12. Slope means rise over run. In this case, rise is the ascent distance and run is the time. 12 = 12/1, so for each second of time, the marine biologist ascends 12 units of distance If the student ascends slower, than the total distance gets reduced by an unknown factor, let's call it c. So we have the student's ascent function as: [B]y(t) = 12t - c[/B]

Angelica’s financial aid stipulates that her tuition cannot exceed $1000. If her local community college charges a $35 registration fee plus $375 per course, what is the greatest number of courses for which Angelica can register?

We have an equation with a given 5 muffins, how much do we need (x) to get to 34 muffins (2 per student): x + 5 = 34 To solve for x, we type this equation into our search engine and we get: x = [B]29[/B]

You are baking muffins for your class. There are 17 total students in your class and you have baked 5 muffins. Write and solve an equation to find the additional number x of muffins you need to bake in order to have 2 muffins for each student. Write your equation so that the units on each side of the equation are muffins per student. [U]Calculate total muffins:[/U] Total muffins = 2 muffins per student * 17 students Total muffins = 34 [U]Set up the equation using x for muffins:[/U] [B]x + 5 = 34 [/B] [U]To Solve this equation for x, we [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=x%2B5%3D34&pl=Solve']type it in our search engine[/URL] and we get:[/U] x = [B]29 [/B]

You have saved $50 over the last two weeks and decide to treat yourself by buying some new clothes. You go to the store and find two shirts and three pairs of jeans you like. The two shirts are buy-one-get-one half off, at $22.35 each. The three pairs of jeans are buy-two-get-one-free, at $23.70. Tax Rate for Harmonized Sales Tax is 13% a. What would be the total for the two shirts (don’t forget to include taxes)? b. What would be the total for the three pairs of jeans (don’t forget to include taxes)? c. Which would you buy and why? a. Half of 22.35 is 11.18 So two shirts cost: 22.35 + 11.18 = 33.53 Cost with Tax of 13% is: 33.53 * 1.13 = [B]37.89 [/B] b. Three pairs of jeans are calculated by cost of 1 pair times 2 jeans and you get the third one free: 23.70 * 2 = 47.40 Cost with Tax of 13% is: 47.40 * 1.13 = [B]53.56 [/B] c. Calculate unit cost, which is cost per item Unit cost of Shirts = 37.89 / 2 = [B]18.95[/B] Unit cost of Jeans = 53.56 / 3 = [B]17.85 Buy the jeans since they have a lower unit cost[/B]

You pay 510.00 to rent a storage unit for 3 months the total cost includes an initial deposit plus a monthly fee of 160.00. Write and equation that represents your total cost Y in dollars after X months. Set up the cost function Y where x is the number of months you rent [B]Y = 160x + 510[/B]

you start at a point on the number line and move 4 units left. If you are now at 10, then what was your original point? Work backwards. If we're at 10, and we moved left, this means we add 4 to get back to our starting point: 10 + 4 = [B]14[/B]

You work for a remote manufacturing plant and have been asked to provide some data about the cost of specific amounts of remote each remote, r, costs $3 to make, in addition to $2000 for labor. Write an expression to represent the total cost of manufacturing a remote. Then, use the expression to answer the following question. What is the cost of producing 2000 remote controls? We've got 2 questions here. Question 1: We want the cost function C(r) where r is the number of remotes: C(r) = Variable Cost per unit * r units + Fixed Cost (labor) [B]C(r) = 3r + 2000 [/B] Question 2: What is the cost of producing 2000 remote controls. In this case, r = 2000, so we want C(2000) C(2000) = 3(2000) + 2000 C(2000) = 6000 + 2000 C(2000) = [B]$8000[/B]

Youre setting sales goals for next month. You base your goals on previous average sales. The actual sales for the same month for the last four years have been 24 units, 30 units, 23 units, and 27 units. What is the average number of units you can expect to sell next month? Find the average sales for the last four years: Average Sales = Total Sales / 4 Average Sales = (24 + 30 + 23 + 27) / 4 Average Sales = 104 / 4 Average Sales = [B]26 units[/B]
