Budget planners in two towns, Alphaville and Betaville, developed models to determine the budget surplus (in dollars) for a year based on the tax revenue (in thousands of dollars) for the year. Using historical data, Alphaville’s planner produced the model -2x2+ 500x, while Betaville’s planner produced the model x2- 100x + 10,000. What expression gives how much greater Alphaville’s annual budget surplus is than Betaville’s for a particular amount of tax revenue? If the tax revenue that year in each town is $75,000, how much greater is Alphaville’s budget surplus than Betaville’s that year?

Step-by-step explanation:

Alphaville's Budget Surplus Model is

Betaville's Budget Surplus Model is

We want to determine the expression that shows how much greater Alphaville’s annual budget surplus is than Betaville’s for a particular amount of tax revenue.

Opening the brackets

Collect like terms and simplify

The expression that shows how much greater Alphaville's Budget is:

(b) If the tax revenue that year in each town is $75,000

We want to evaluate the expression derived above when the tax revenue that year in each town is $75,000 i.e.at x=75000

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)
