Algebra plz

OpenStudy (helpneplasd):

The function for the cost of materials to make a biscuit is f(x) = four-fifths x + 4, where x is the number of biscuits. The function for the selling price of those biscuits is g(f(x)), where g(x) = 4x + 5. Find the selling price of 15 biscuits.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

plug in f(x) in to g(x) g(x) = 4x + 5 f(x) = 4/5x + 4 g(f(x)) = 4(4/5x + 4) + 5 simplify it :)

OpenStudy (helpneplasd):

3 1/5x + 16 + 5 3 1/5x + 21

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

yup, it might be better if we keep it as 16/5 until the end now we have to plug in x = 15 since they want the selling price (16/5 * 15) + 21 = ??

I need more help btw i'm the guy from yesterday that you helped too I'm now practicing for my test with a practice test

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

I helped too many people, but I think I remember which one you're talking about xD sure, make ask away (:

OpenStudy (helpneplasd):

alright thanks Below are two different functions, f(x) and g(x). What can be determined about their slopes? f(x) = 2x + 3 answer choices The function f(x) has a larger slope. The function g(x) has a larger slope. They both have the same slope. The relationship between slopes cannot be determined. I think it's the first answer choice

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

correct

Ella runs a cat rescue center. She started with 2 cats, and her center has an increase of 5 cats per year. Which of the graphs below represents the number of cats per year at Ella's center? Is the equation y=5x+2? for the graph

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

correct :)
