Using a linear function, it is found that the rate of change in this problem situation is of -2 contestants per week.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Considering the situation described, the number of participants after n weeks is given by:

N(n) = 20 - 2n.

The slope is of -2, hence the rate of change in this problem situation is of -2 contestants per week.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Her new balance = - 92.34

Step-by-step explanation:

First find out what the check did.

She had $63.44 in her account. Her check caused her to be in the whole

63.44 - 186.56 = -123.12

Now she deposited 1/4 of that amount.

- 123.12 + (1/4)(123.12) = - 123.12 + 30.78

Her new balance = - 92.34

A video rental store keeps a list of their top 15 movie rentals each week. This week the list includes 6 action, 4 comedies, 3 d
azamat

Answer:

<h2>32/1125</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome of event/Total outcome.

If a video rental store keeps a list of their top 15 movie rentals each week, the total outcome is 15.

If the list for the week includes 6 action, 4 comedies, 3 dramas, and 2 mysteries and the store manager removes a copy of each of the 15 movies from the shelf, then randomly selects 3 of the 15 to show on the display monitors in the store, the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie will be calculated as shown;

Probability of selecting 2 comedies  = 4/15*4/15 = 16/225 (Note that the expected outcome in this case is 4).

Probability of selecting 1 action movie = 6/15 = 2/5

<em>Hence, the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie will be equivalent to 16/225*2/5 = 32/1125</em>

<em>Note that the rented movies will have to be returned hence reason for the replacement. </em>
