jessica is selling books during the summer to earn money for college. she earns a commission on each sale but has to pay for her own expenses.

after a month of driving from neighborhood to neighborhood and walking door-to-door, she figures out that her weekly earnings are approximately a linear function of the number of doors she knocks on.

she writes the equation of the function like this: e(x) = 10x - 30, where x is the number of doors she knocks on during the week and e(x) is her earnings for the week in dollars.

which of the following are reasonable interpretations of the y-intercept of jessica's function?

choose all that apply.

a. her expenses are $30 per week.
b. if she does not knock on any doors at all during the week, she will lose $30.
c. she can earn $10 per week even if she does not knock any doors
d. she will lose $10 per week if she does not knock on any doors.

Choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (2, 4) and has a slope of 3. a) y − 4 = 3(x − 2) b) y − 2 = 3(x − 4) c) y + 4 = 3(x + 2) d) y + 2 = 3(x + 4)

Solve the formula ax+ by = c for x.

1. an economy consists of three workers: larry, moe, and curly. each works 10 hours a day and can produce two services: mowing lawns and washing cars. in an hour, larry can either mow one lawn or wash one car; moe can either mow one lawn or wash two cars; and curly can either mow two lawns or wash one car. a. calculate how much of each service is produced under the following circumstances: a. all three spend all their time mowing lawns. b. all three spend all their time washing cars. c. all three spend half their time on each activity d. larry spends half of his time on each activity, while moe only washes cars and curly only mows lawns b. using your answers to part a, draw a production possibilities frontier and label points a, b, c, and d on your graph. explain why the production possibilities frontier has the shape it does. c. are any of the allocations calculated in part a inefficient? explain.
