Suppose that a sales person observes that if an item is priced at $9 per item then 6 items are sold. If 4 items are sold for $11 per item then find a linear equation to model the number y of items sold for x dollars per item. Find the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

if an item is priced at $9 per item then 6 items are sold.

Thus, the input is 9 while the output is 6.

Thus, we can say; x, y = (9, 6)

4 items are sold for $11 per item. Thus, the coordinate is; (11, 4)

Now,slope is;

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (4 - 6)/(11 - 9)

m = -2/2

m = -1

We know that slope intercept form is;

y = mx + c

Let's try the first point.

Thus;

6 = -1(9) + c

6 + 9 = c

c = 15

Thus, equation of line is;

y = -x + 15

Answer:

[tex]Max\ z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Min\ z = -9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]z = 4x + 5y[/tex]

[tex]x \ge -1[/tex]

[tex]y \le 2x +3[/tex]

[tex]y \le -1[/tex]

Required

The maximum and minimum of z

To do this, we make use of the graphical method

See attachment for graphs of

[tex]x \ge -1[/tex]

[tex]y \le 2x +3[/tex]

[tex]y \le -1[/tex]

The corner points of the function are:

[tex](x,y) = (-1,1)[/tex]

[tex](x,y) = (-1,0)[/tex]

[tex](x,y) = (-1,-1)[/tex]

We have:

[tex]z = 4x + 5y[/tex]

Calculate z with  the above values

[tex]z = 4(-1) + 5(1) = 1[/tex]

[tex]z = 4(-1) + 5(0) = -4[/tex]

[tex]z = 4(-1) + 5(-1) = -9[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Max\ z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Min\ z = -9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a rhombus are congruent , then

13b - 9 = 3b + 4 ( subtract 3b from both sides )

10b - 9 = 4 ( add 9 to both sides )

10b = 13 ( divide both sides by 10 )

b = 1.3

The diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other , then

14a + 20 = 90 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

14a = 70 ( divide both sides by 14 )

a = 5

Thus c = a + b = 5 + 1.3 = 6.3 → D

A rose garden is formed by joining a rectangle and a semicircle, as shown below. The rectangle is 24 ft long and 16 ft wide.
Find the area of the garden.

Answers

Answer: Using width as diameter=32π Using length as diameter=72π

*I included both possibilities since I didn't see a picture of the way in which the semicircle and rectangle were joined.*

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve, you have to know the formula for area of a circle which is A=πr^2 (pi*radius to the 2nd power)

The problem does not give us the radius, but we know that radius is half of the diameter.

To find the diameter, we have to use the side measurement of the rectangle and divide it by 2 to find the radius.

Next, we increase the radius to the 2nd power, giving us the radius of a whole circle.

Finally, we have to divide that by 2 since it's a semi circle otherwise known as half of a circle.

I put the answer in terms of pi since that's the most accurate, but if the question specifically instructs it, you can calculate part of the irrational decimal and round to a certain place value.

Do oddsmakers believe that teams who play at home will have home field advantage? Specifically, do oddsmakers give higher point spreads when the favored team plays home games as compared to when the favored team plays away games? Two samples were randomly

Answers

Complete question is;

Do oddsmakers believe that teams who play at home will have home field advantage? Specifically, do oddsmakers give higher point spreads when the favored team plays home games as compared to when the favored team plays away games?

Two samples were randomly selected from three complete National Football League seasons (1989, 1990, and 1991). The first sample consisted of 50 games, where the favored team played in a home game, while the second sample consisted of 50 games, where the favored team played in an away game. The oddsmakers’ point spreads (which are the number of points by which the favored team is predicted to beat the weaker team) were then collected.

If µ1 and µ2 represent the mean point spread for home games and away games, respectively, which of the following is the appropriate.

A) H0: μ1 - μ2 = 0

Ha: μ1 - μ2 < 0

B) H0: μ1 - μ2 = 0

Ha: μ1 < μ2

C) H0: μ1 - μ2 > 0

Ha: μ1 - μ2 = 0

D) H0: μ1 - μ2 = 0

Ha: μ1 - μ2 > 0

E) None of the above

Answer:

D) H0: μ1 - μ2 = 0

Ha: μ1 - μ2 > 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find out if oddsmakers give higher point spreads when the favored team plays home games as compared to when the favored team plays away games.

Now, since µ1 and µ2 represent the mean point spread for home games and away games, respectively;

It means we want to find out if µ1 > µ2 as the alternative hypothesis.

Thus, alternative hypothesis is;

Ha: µ1 - µ2 > 0

Meanwhile null hypothesis assumes that equal point spreads are given when the favored team plays home games as well as when the favored team plays away games.

Thus, null hypothesis is;

H0: μ1 - μ2 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

16 + 4 = c^2

c^2 = 20

c = 4.5

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + 4.5^2 = 9^2

a^2 + 20.25 = 81

a^2 = 81 - 20.25

a^2 = 60.75

a = 7.8

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoreus Theorem

In the smaller rectangle

2²+4² = h²

20 = h²

h = √20

h = 2√5

Therefore two sides of the rectangle will 2√5

No using pythagoreus theorem in the bigger triangle

x² + (2√5)² = 9²

x² = 9² - (2√5)²

x² = 81 - 20

x = √61

x = 7.8102496759

Answers

Answer:

15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinates of point B are (x, y).

Since the rotation is clockwise the angle measure between OA and OB is -60° (IV quadrant).

x = 15 cos (-60°) = 7.5y = 15 sin (-60°) = -12.99

The distance between A and B is:

AB = [tex]\sqrt{(15-7.5)^2+(0+12.99)^2} = \sqrt{225}[/tex] = 15 unitsAnother solution

Since OA = OB = 15 units and AOB is 60° angle the triangle OAB is equilateral. Hence AB is same as OA and OB, so AB = 15 units.

There are 38 chocolates in a box, all identically shaped. There are 8 filled with nuts, 16 with caramel, and 14 are solid chocolate. You randomly select one piece, eat it and then select a second piece. Find the probability of selecting 2 solid chocolate in a row

Answers

Answer:

0.1294

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of chocolates in box = 38

Number of nuts = 8

Number of caramel = 16

Number of solid chocolate = 14

Since 2 are selected in a row and not replaced, then;

Probability of first being solid chocolate = 14/38

Probability of second being solid chocolate after first one = 13/37

Thus;

P(2 selected in a row being solid chocolate) = 14/38 × 13/37 = 0.1294
