7. Carlos is renovating a house and hires a plumber to install the piping for 4 points the new bathroom. The plumber charges an initial fee plus an hourly rate
for the number of hours it will take to complete the installation. The
function y = 100 + 35x can be used to model the total cost of the job, in
dollars. What does the slope in the expression of this function represent? *
the initial fee for the installation, $35
the initial fee for the installation, $100
the cost per hour of installation work, $35
the number of hours to complete the installation, x

the cost per hour of installation work, $35

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 35x + 100

the slope of a function is the coefficient of x, therefore, it is 35. $100 is the initial fee, since it ia the y intercept, and $35 is the cost per hour. y is the total amount, and x is the number of hours. Therefore, the only possible answer is the third choice,

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
