A company is deciding whether or not to hire a new worker. The company must pay the worker hourly and cover a daily cost for insurance. The cost to pay an hourly worker for one day is represented by the function y = 8x + 25, where x is hours. What is the y-intercept, and what does it represent? (1 point)

8; it represents the hourly wage for the worker
8; it represents the cost for insurance
25; it represents the cost for insurance
25; it represents the hourly wage for the worker

range is infinite on both x and y axis positive and negative

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
