ANSWER

The significant features include:

1. The y-intercept indicated by (0,400).


This suggests that at time x=0, the Masons are 400 miles away from their home.


2. The x-intercept represented by (8,0).


This implies that after 8 hours, the Masons have arrived home.

The explanation for this is that they have traveled y=0 miles, indicating no distance remained between them and their home.


3. The slope of the graph represented by \frac{distance}{time} indicates the speed at which they traveled towards their home.


Speed=|\frac{0-400}{8-0}| =|-50|=50.


This means their speed was 50miles/hour.


The negative slope reveals that the distance decreases as they near their home.

Everything you stated is correct. The graph shows that Y represents the distance from home and X denotes the time spent driving.
I scored a perfect 100% on the test.

In the Ma-and-Pa grocery store, shelf-space is limited and must be used effectively to increase profit. Two-cereal items, Grano
Inessa [9000]
No. Allocate 2/3 of the space to Grano and 1/3 to Wheatie. This results in approximately 57% for Wheatie and 43% for Grano—meaning 60(.57)=34.2 ft² for Wheatie and 60(.43)=25.8 ft² for Grano. Therefore, there would be about 85.5 boxes of Wheatie and 129 boxes of Grano, leading to a total profit of 129(1)+85(1.35)=$243.75. The best choice would be to place 200 boxes of Grano and 50 boxes of Wheaties on the shelf. Allocating 40 ft² to Granos (200(.2)) and 20 ft² to Wheaties (50(.4)) means that 40/60=2/3=66.6% of the space would be for Granos, and 20/60=1/3=33.3% would be for Wheaties. The total profit would be 200(1)+50(1.35)=$267.5.

.580 80 repeating as fraction
Svet_ta [9500]
To start, we will shift the non-repeating segment of the decimal to the left side by dividing by a power of 10.

Then we will assign a variable to represent the value and also shift the repeating segment to the left.

Essentially, the concept here is that we can denote the repeating portion with a variable, let's say "x", and move forward with the calculation;

\bf 0.580\overline{80}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{5.80\overline{80}}{10}}\qquad \textit{now, let's say }x= 5.80\overline{80}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf thus\qquad \begin{array}{llll}
100\cdot x&=&580.80\overline{80}\\
&&575+5.80\overline{80}\\
&&575+x
\end{array}\qquad \implies 100x=575+x
\\\\\\
99x=575\implies x=\cfrac{575}{99}\qquad therefore\qquad \boxed{\cfrac{5.80\overline{80}}{10}}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{575}{99}\quad }{10}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\quad \frac{575}{99}\quad }{\frac{10}{1}}\implies \cfrac{575}{99}\cdot \cfrac{1}{10}\implies \cfrac{575}{990}\implies \stackrel{simplified}{\cfrac{115}{198}}

you can verify that using your calculator.

The graphs below have the same shape. The equation of the blue graph is f(x)=x^2. Which of these is the equation of the red grap
tester [8842]
We observe that
the vertex of f(x) is located at the point (0,0)
and
the vertex of g(x) is situated at (0,5)

thus,
(x,y) in f(x)  becomes -------> (x,y+5) in g(x)
g(x)---------> f(x)+5

g(x)=x²+5

the answer is
g(x)=x²+5

If m abf=7b-24 and m Abe = 2b what is m EBF
Inessa [9000]
Since m∠abe = 2b, and angle abe consists of angles abf and ebf, we can write:
m∠abe = m∠abf + m∠ebf
To find m∠ebf, rearrange:
m∠ebf = m∠abe - m∠abf
Substitute the given expressions:
m∠ebf = 2b - (7b - 24)
Simplify:
m∠ebf = 2b - 7b + 24
m∠ebf = -5b + 24.
