Suppose that a car rental agency charges a fixed amount per day plus an amount per mile for renting a car. Heidi rented a car one day and paid $52 for 180 miles. On another day she rented a car from the same agency and paid $77.50 for 350 miles. Find the linear function f(x) (where x is in miles and f(x) is in dollars) that the agency could use to determine its daily rental charges.

Answer:

  f(x) = 0.15x +25

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two points:

  (x, y) = (180, 52) or (350, 77.50)

The slope is given by ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (77.50 -52)/(350 -180) = 25.50/170 = 0.15

The y-intercept is given by ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 52 -0.15×180 = 25

Then the equation for the linear function is ...

  f(x) = mx +b

  f(x) = 0.15x +25

please help!

Answers

Answer:

b = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−4 = 2(b + 5)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−4 = 2(b + 5)

−4 = (2)(b) + (2)(5)(Distribute)

−4 = 2b + 10

Step 2: Flip the equation.

2b + 10 = −4

Step 3: Subtract 10 from both sides.

2b + 10 − 10 = −4 − 10

2b = −14

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]\frac{2b}{2} = \frac{-14}{2}[/tex]

b = -7

The circumference of the base of the cone is 8.5 inches. What is the volume of the cone in term of pi? Round to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Answer:  V = 270.94/pi

========================================================

Work Shown:

C = 2*pi*r  ......... circumference of the circular base

r = C/(2pi)

r = (8.5)/(2pi)

r = 4.25/pi

-------------

V = pi*r^2*h ...... volume of the cone

V = pi*(4.25/pi)^2*15

V = pi*(18.0625/pi^2)*15

V = (18.0625*15)/pi

V = 270.9375/pi ..... exact volume in terms of pi

If we round that decimal number up top to the nearest hundredth, then we end up with V = 270.94/pi

The population of a rabbit colony triples each month.

The population started with 5 rabbits. How many

rabbits are there after 6 months?

Answers

Answer:

3645 rabbits after 6 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a rabbit colony triples each month.

This means that the population of the colony after t months is given by:

[tex]P(t) = P(0)(3)^t[/tex]

In which P(0) is the initial population.

The population started with 5 rabbits.

This means that [tex]P(0) = 5[/tex]

So

[tex]P(t) = 5(3)^t[/tex]

How many rabbits are there after 6 months?

This is P(6). So

[tex]P(6) = 5(3)^6 = 3645[/tex]

3645 rabbits after 6 months.

Intersection and conditional probability problem. Can anyone help solve this problem?

Answers

Part (a)

Refer to figure 1 in the attached image below. The a,b,c,d,e are placeholders for numbers we'll fill in later (that turns into the table for figure 2). Hopefully you agree about the placement of the numbers. If there's any confusion, then please let me know.

Along the bottom row, we can see that 39+e = 65 which solves to e = 26 after you subtract 39 from both sides. This tells us that there are 26 non-physics majors (ie their major is anything but physics).

Then along the "non-physics" column, notice how b+6 = e, which is the same as b+6 = 26 after replacing 'e' with 26. Solving that equation leads to b = 20. So we have 20 people who are seniors and non-physics majors.

Now move to the top row. We can see that a+b = 30, which is the same as a+20 = 30 because we plug in b = 20. That solves to a = 10. So we have 10 seniors who are physics majors.

----------------

Now along the first column, we have a+c = 39, aka 10+c = 39, which solves to c = 29. There are 29 non-seniors who are physics majors.

The last variable to find is variable d.

Along the second row, we can say,

c+6 = d

29+6 = d

d = 35

Or we could say that 30+d = 65 along the last column which also solves to d = 35. This tells us we have 35 non-seniors in the class.

----------------

To summarize so far, we have

a = 10, b = 20, c = 29, d = 35, e = 26

These values will replace the letters as shown in figure 2.

Figure 2 will be used to answer both parts (a) and (b).

----------------

After that (more than) slight detour of filling in the table, we can finally tackle the question at hand. We're asked to find the probability of selecting someone who is a senior and a physics major. We have a = 10 people who fit the description out of 65 total

Divide the two values and reduce the fraction as much as possible

10/65 = (2*5)/(13*5) = 2/13

Answer:   2/13

==========================================================

Part (b)

There's a lot going on with part (a). Luckily there aren't many steps here because pretty much all the work has been done already. We'll refer to figure 2 below.

We're told "given the student is a physics major", which means we focus solely on the "physics major" column only. We ignore everyone else because we know 100% that whoever we selected majored in physics.

We have a = 10 seniors who are also physics majors out of 39 physics majors total.

That constructs the fraction 10/39

What is the greatest solution of x in the equation x2 + 8x - 30 = 18?
Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 18,  we have the equation ...

  x^2 +8x -48 = 0

  (x +12)(x -4) = 0 . . . . . factored form

The values of x that make these factors zero are the solutions:

  x = -12, x = 4

The greatest solution is x=4.

Answer:

Greatest solution of x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 8x - 30 = 18

subtract 18 from both sides

x² + 8 x - 30 - 18 = 18 - 18

x ² + 8 x - 48 = 0

split 8x in middle form

x² + ( 12 x - 4 x ) - 48 = 0

factor out x from the first pair

x ( x + 12 ) - ( 4 x- 48 ) = 0

factor out 4 from the second pair

x ( x + 12) - 4 ( x + 12 ) = 0

x + 12 is common factor

x ( x + 12) - 4 ( x + 12 ) = 0

Group common factor

(x - 4) ( x + 12 ) = 0

When the product of factors equal 0, at least one factor is 0.

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

similarly,

x + 12 = 0

x = - 12

Greatest solution of x = 4
