I need help ASAP. I'm not good with math.

Given:

The increase in pressure P is the linear function of the depth d.

The cost of dinner is $300 and $10 per students.

To find:

The initial value and rate of change and their interpretation.

Find the cost function C where n is the number of students.

Solution:

The slope intercept form of a linear function is

         ...(i)

where, m is rate of change and b is y-intercept or initial value.

We have,

       ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

The initial value is 14.7. It means, the pressure at sea level is 14.7 pounds psi.

Rate of change is 0.445. It means, the pressure is increasing by 0.445 pounds psi for every feet.

The cost of dinner is $300 and $10 per students.

Let C(n) be the total cost for dinner and n be the number of students.

Fixed cost = $300

Additional cost for 1 student = $10

Additional cost for n student = $10n

Now,

Total cost = Fixed cost + Additional cost

Therefore, the required cost function is .

why can't you?

step-by-step explanation:

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
