The best ticket deal are illustrations of linear equations

The ticket system is a better deal to the max ticket

<h3>How to determine the best ticket deal</h3>

From the complete question, we have the following summary:

<u>Ticket System</u>

Charges = $22 per person

Surcharge = $10 per transaction

<u>Max Tickets</u>

Charges = $20 per person

Surcharge = $16 per transaction

Assume there would be only one transaction, the linear equations that represent the ticket deals are:

Ticket System: y = 22x + 10

Max Ticket: y = 20x + 16

The costs of ticket for two people in both deals are:

Ticket System: y = 22*2 + 10 = 54

Max Ticket: y = 20*2 + 16 = 56

By comparison;

54 is less than 56

This means that the ticket system is a better deal to the max ticket

A certain disease occurs most frequently among older women. Of all age groups, women in their 60s have the highest rate of breas

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The probability that a woman in her 60s has breast cancer given that she gets a positive mammogram is 0.0276.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a set be events that have occurred be denoted as:

S = {A₁, A₂, A₃,..., Aₙ}

The Bayes' theorem states that the conditional probability of an event, say <em>A</em>ₙ given that another event, say <em>X</em> has already occurred is given by:

$P(A_{n}|X)=\frac{P(X|A_{n})P(A_{n})}{\sum\limits^{n}_{i=1}{P(X|A_{i})P(A_{i})}}$

The disease Breast cancer is being studied among women of age 60s.

Denote the events as follows:

<em>B</em> = a women in their 60s has breast cancer

+ = the mammograms detects the breast cancer

The information provided is:

$P(B) = 0.0312\\P(+|B)=0.81\\P(+|B^{c})=0.92$

Compute the value of P (B|+) using the Bayes' theorem as follows:

$P(B|+)=\frac{P(+|B)P(B)}{P(+|B)P(B)+P(+|B^{c})P(B^{c})}$

$=\frac{(0.81\times 0.0312)}{(0.81\times 0.0312)+(0.92\times (1-0.0312)}\\$

$=\frac{0.025272}{0.025272+0.891296}$

$=0.02757\\\approx0.0276$

Thus, the probability that a woman in her 60s has breast cancer given that she gets a positive mammogram is 0.0276.

Dilate the trapezoid using center (-3,4) and scale factor 1/2.

pochemuha

The coordinates of the vertices of the image of the trapezoid are given as;

A'(x, y) = (- 4, 1), B'(x, y) = (- 2, 1), C'(x, y) = (- 5 / 2, 5 / 2) , D'(x, y) = (- 7 / 2, 5 / 2).

<h3>How to find the image of a trapezoid by dilation?</h3>

In this question we have a representation of a trapezoid, whose image has to be generated by a kind of rigid transformation known as dilation, whose equation is described :

P'(x, y) = O(x, y) + k · [P(x, y) - O(x, y)]

Where O(x, y) - Center of dilation

k - Scale factor

And P(x, y) - Coordinates of the original point, P'(x, y) - Coordinates of the resulting point.

Since k = 1 / 2, A(x, y) = (- 5, - 2), B(x, y) = (- 1, - 2), C(x, y) = (- 2, 1), D(x, y) = (- 4, 1), O(x, y) = (- 3, 4),

Therefore, the coordinates of the vertices of the image are:

Point A'

A'(x, y) = O(x, y) + k · [A(x, y) - O(x, y)]

A'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1 / 2) [(- 5, - 2) - (- 3, 4)]

A'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1 / 2) (- 2, - 6)

A'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (- 1, - 3)

A'(x, y) = (- 4, 1)

Point B';

B'(x, y) = O(x, y) + k [B(x, y) - O(x, y)]

B'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1 / 2) [(- 1, - 2) - (- 3, 4)]

B'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1 / 2) (2, - 6)

B'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1, - 3)

B'(x, y) = (- 2, 1)

Point C';

C'(x, y) = O(x, y) + k · [C(x, y) - O(x, y)]

C'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1 / 2) [(- 2, 1) - (- 3, 4)]

C'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1 / 2) (1, - 3)

C'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1 / 2, - 3 / 2)

C'(x, y) = (- 5 / 2, 5 / 2)

Point D'

D'(x, y) = O(x, y) + k [D(x, y) - O(x, y)]

D'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1 / 2) [(- 4, 1) - (- 3, 4)]

D'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (1 / 2) (- 1, - 3)

D'(x, y) = (- 3, 4) + (- 1 / 2, - 3 / 2)

D'(x, y) = (- 7 / 2, 5 / 2)

The equation y=7.6x represents a proportional relationship what is the constant of proportionality?

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Option B. 7.6

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

where

k is the constant of proportionality

The slope of the linear equation is the same that the constant of proportionality

In this problem we have

$y=7.6x$

the slope is $m=7.6$

therefore

The constant of proportionality k is $k=7.6$

A restaurant has 5 pizza toppings to choose from. How many different 2-topping pizzas are possible?

horsena [70]

10

Because if you do 5•2 you get 10

More in depth explanation:

Though there are 25 possible configurations the question asks for two different toppings together. It also asks for unique combinations. So AB and BA are the same combination in this context. The only unique possibilities are

AB
AC
AD
AE
BC
BD
BE
CD
CE
DE

It is easy to simplify this into 5•2 for this situation. And if the question asked for three toppings you would do 5•3.

However if the question asked for the configurations for two toppings then you would do 5•5 and if it asked for the configurations of 3 toppings you would do 5•5•5
