My brain has stopped working, can you answer this?

Answers

Answer:

$40.00, $30.00, B

Step-by-step explanation:

We can first write an expression for the cost of each plan.

Given x amount of texts and y amount of minutes, plan A costs 15 cents per text sent (so given x amount of texts, plan A costs 15 * x for texts) and 10 cents per minute (so given y amount of minutes, plan A costs 10 * y for minutes). Adding these up, plan A costs 15 * x + 10 * y. Plugging Jaden's 200 texts in for x and 100 minutes in for y, we have

15 * x + 10 * y = 15 * 200 + 10 * 100 = 4000 cents. 100 cents = 1 dollar, and the conversion rate for cents to dollars is divide by 100, so we divide 4000 cents by 100 to get $40.00 as the cost for plan A

For plan B, the flat rate is 15 dollars. To convert from dollars to cents, we multiply by 100, so 15 * 100 = 1500 cents for the flat fee.

Texts cost 5 cents per text, so 5 * x is the cost for texts in cents for plan B. Similarly, 5 * y is the cost for minutes in cents for plan B. Adding these up, we get

1500 + 5 * x + 5 * y

combine like terms

1500 + 5 * (x+y)

plug 200 in for x and 100 in for y

1500 + 5 * (200+100)

1500 + 5 * (300)

1500 + 1500

3000

divide by 100 to convert to dollars

$30.00 is the cost for plan B

$30 < $40, so plan B will be cheaper for Jaden

jack wants to run at least 275 miles before the baseball season begins. he has already run 25 miles. he plans to run 2.5 miles each day. at this rate what is the fewest number of days he will need to reach his goal

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that Jack has already run 25 miles.

25

He also wants to run 2.5 miles every day. This means we will multiply 2.5 miles by the number of days he runs. We will call the number of days x.

25+2.5x

And he needs this to equal 275.

25+2.5=275

We subtract 25 from both sides.

2.5x=250

We divide both sides by 2.5

x=100

So, Jack will need to run 100 days to meet his goal.

The last four years of stock returns are as follows: Year 1 is -4% Year 2 is +28% Year 3 is +12% Year 4 is + 4% (a). What is the average annual return?

Answers

Answer:

The Average annual return is:

= 10%.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Year        Stock Returns

Year 1                 -4%

Year 2             +28%

Year 3              +12%

Year 4              + 4%

Total returns = 40%

Average annual returns = 10% (40%/4)

b) The average annual return is computed as the total returns for the four years divided by 4.  It shows that on the average, the return earned per year from the stock investment is 10%, during the four-year period.  It is the mean of the total returns.

Answer:

750kmph

Step-by-step explanation:

Average is sum of all parts divided by the number of parts.

Let Stot be average speed for total trip (800kmph).

Let S1 be speed for first quarter of trip (950kmph).

Let S2, S3, and S4 be the speeds of each of the remaining quarters respectively.

Let Sans be the average speed for the remaining three quarters of the trip (a.k.a. The Answer!).

Stot = (S1 + S2 + S3 + S4) / 4

800kmph = (950kmph + S2 + S3 + S4) / 4

3200kmph = 950kmph + S2 + S3 + S4

3200kmph - 950kmph = 2250kmph = S2 + S3 + S4

Divide both sides by 3.

2250kmph / 3 = (S2 + S3 + S4) / 3 = Sans

Sans = 750kmph

Given the function h(x) = x^2 + 10x + 32, determine the average rate of change
of the function over the interval 3 < x < 11.

Answers

Answer:  24

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

Explanation:

Plug in x = 3 to get

h(x) = x^2 + 10x + 32

h(3) = 3^2 + 10*3 + 32

h(3) = 71

Repeat for x = 11

h(x) = x^2 + 10x + 32

h(11) = 11^2 + 10*11 + 32

h(11) = 263

Now use the average rate of change formula

m = average rate of change

m = ( h(b) - h(a) )/(b - a)

m = ( h(11) - h(3) )/(11 - 3)

m = (263 - 71)/(11 - 3)

m = 192/8

m = 24
