Emelyn is comparing the rates of two different gardening companies for her camp site. The table below shows the rates for Log Edge Landscaping. Log Edge Landscaping Hours Worked 1.5 3 3.5 4.5 Total Cost $26 $44 $50 $62 The equation below represents the rates for Gatewood Gardening Services, where x represents the hours worked and y represents the total cost, in dollars. Compare the rates of both companies, and graph the relationship that represents the cost for the company with a greater rate of change.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Edge Landscaping:

[tex]\begin{array}{cc}{Hours} & {Total} & {1.5} & {\$26} & {3} & {\$44} & {3.5} & {\$50} & {4.5} & {\$62} \ \end{array}[/tex]

The rates (m) of the above table is calculated using:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

From the table, we have the following points

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (1.5,26)[/tex]

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (4.5,62)[/tex]

So, the rate is:

[tex]m = \frac{62 - 26}{4.5 - 1.5}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{36}{3.0}[/tex]

[tex]m = 12.0[/tex]

This means that the rate of edge landscaping is $12.0 per hour

The equation for Gatewood is not given. Hence, the rate cannot be calculated. However, the general procedure of calculating rates from a linear equation is as follows;

A linear equation is of the form:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Where:

[tex]m \to slope\ or\ rates[/tex]

In other words, if the equation is:

[tex]y = 20x + 5[/tex]

Then the rate is: 20 ($20/hour)

If the equation is: [tex]y = 10x + 5[/tex]

Then the rate is 10 ($10/hr)

Next, is to compare the rates;

For Edge landscaping, we have:

[tex]m = 12.0[/tex]

For Gatewood, we have:

[tex]m = 10[/tex] ------------ assume the equation is: [tex]y = 10x + 5[/tex]

Compare the rates:

[tex]12 > 10[/tex]

Hence, Edge landscaping has a greater hourly rate

The waiting times between a subway departure schedule and the arrival of a passenger are uniformly distributed between and minutes. Find the probability that a randomly selected passenger has a waiting time minutes.

Answers

Answer:

Incomplete question, but I gave you a guide on the uniform distribution, and thus you just have to replace the values in these equations to find the desired probabilities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniform probability distribution:

An uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b.

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

[tex]P(X < x) = \frac{a - x}{b - a}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value between c and d is:

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value above x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}[/tex]

Between a and b minutes.

Here you get a and b for the uniform distribution.

Find the probability that a randomly selected passenger has a waiting time minutes.

Here you will have the value of x.

Answers

Answer:  104 square feet

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

Explanation:

The horizontal pieces are the parallel bases

b1 = 17 and b2 = 9

The height is always perpendicular to the base, so h = 8

The 4 ft portion won't be used in the next section, so we can ignore it.

---------

Plug the values mentioned into the trapezoid area formula below. Simplify.

A = h*(b1+b2)/2

A = 8*(17+9)/2

A = 8*26/2

A = 8*13

A = 104 square feet

We can abbreviate "square feet" into "sq ft" or "ft^2" without quotes.

----------

As another approach, you can split the trapezoid into 2 triangles and a rectangle in between. Then find the area of each small piece, and add up those smaller areas to get the final answer. You should get 104. If you go with this approach, then you will use the 4 ft portion to help find the horizontal length of the triangle on the right.
