7532 Question 1 of 7 The equation 4x – 45 = y is used to find your profit, y, in dollars from buying $45 of supplies and washing cars for $4 each. What does the x stand for?

x stands for the number of cars washed with the supplies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Profit equation; y = 4x - 45

Price of supplies = $45

Amount received per car wahed = $4

From the equation given, we can notice that the higher the value of x the higher the profit generated.

Since, for washing a car brings $4, 2 car is $8 and so on... So the value of x is the number of cars washed with the supplies.

x stands for the number of cars washed with the supplies.

For example, if we wash 15 cars. x = 15

y = 4(15) - 45 = 60 - 45

y = $15

the answer is 375 miles

step-by-step explanation:

p ÷ r = tan(x)

step-by-step explanation:

given that there is a figure below shows a right triangle: a right triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to q units and the length of the legs equal to p units and r units.

graph is missing so i will create the graph as per given information.

the angle between the legs having lengths p units and q units is y degrees. the angle between the legs having lengths r units and q units is x degrees.

now we need to find about what is p ÷ r equal to.

so we can use trigonometric ratio tan(x)=[altitude]/[base] to find the value of p ÷ r, because p is the altitude and r is the base.

p ÷ r=tan(x)

hence final answer is p ÷ r=tan(x).
