each trial is independent so do
.5 x .5 x .5 or .5^3
.125 is the probability.
Answer:
y=400*x-500
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression that represents the problem is:
y=400*x-500
Function y represents earnings for one day.
400 is the fixed number that is charge for one hour work
x represents the number of hours that the technician has worked for one day
To find the total earnings you should multiply the fixed charge for one hour work (400) by the number of hours worked in a day.
Then you need to substract the cost of gasoline in a day, it is 500 and it is a constant in the equation since it doesn't depend on the number of hours worked.
So, the function is:
y=400*x-500
Answer:
The amount of jobs from fitting industry shall decline in 5.5 percent from 2015 to 2025.
Step-by-step explanation:
Due to the assumption of a yearly average rate, a linear function model shall be used. The expected amount of jobs (
) after a certain amount of years (t) is given by the following formula:

Where:
- Initial amount of jobs in pipe fitting industry, measured in thousands.
- Average yearly rate, measured in thousands per year. (A decline is indicated by a negative sign)
If
,
and
, then:


The percent change in jobs from pipe fitting industry is calculated as follows:



The amount of jobs from fitting industry shall decline in 5.5 percent from 2015 to 2025.
The given expression is

And in the second factor, x is common. So on taking x out, we will get

We can expand it by distributing , that is


Combining like terms,

And that's the expanded form ., and the given expression can also be written in that way .
The answer is 6. Sorry, I don't know why though.
