Let's use the variable E to represent the total value spent by Elena and T to represent the total value spent by Taniy.

If Elena spent $7.45 plus the cost of 3 pounds of cherries, the expression for the amount she spent is:

E=7.45+3p

Taniy spent $3.35 plus the cost of 2 pounds of cherries, so the expression for the amount the spent is:

T=3.35+2p

To find how much more Elena spent, let's subtract both expressions:

\begin{gathered} E-T\\ \\ =7.45+3p-(3.35+2p)\\ \\ =7.45+3p-3.35-2p\\ \\ =4.1+p \end{gathered}

Therefore the answer is 4.1 + p.

Aneli [31]

ANSWER

a relation only

EXPLANATION

The given graph shown in the attachment represents only a relation and not a function.

The reason is that, a vertical line drawn across this graph will intersect this graph at more than one point.

Since the graph fails to pass the vertical line test, the ordered pair represented by this graph represents a relation only.

For the answer to the question above, this is a right triangle problem using the tangent function. 
<span>Tan(x) = Opposite (O) / Adjacent (A) </span>
<span>x = 40 degrees </span>
<span>A = 30 ft </span>
<span>Solve for O </span>
<span>O= Tan (x) * A </span>
<span>O = Tan (40) * 30 </span>
<span>Use your calculator or whatever method to get the tangent of 40 degrees (which is .84) </span>
<span>O = .84 * 30 </span>
<span>O = 25.2 Ft</span>

Sample standard deviation

Mean of data = 84.4

Calculate deviations from the mean = 23.4, 17.8, 3.4, 1.4, -2.6, -3.6, -4.6, -5.6, -13.6 and -15.6

Squaring these deviations; we get 547.56, 316.84, 11.56, 1.96, 6.76, 12.96, 21.15, 31.36, 184.96, 243.36

Adding these we get 1378.47

As its a sample Std Dev we divide by 10 - 1 = 9. For the popklation Std Dev we divide by the number of scores (10).

Std Deviation for sample = sqrt ( 1378.47 / 9) = 12.4 to nearest tenth (answer)

Population Std Dev = sqrt (1378.47 / 10) = 11.7 answer

Theres a lot of arithmetic there so hope i haven't slipped up anywhere!

Mr. Larson is debating between investing $10,000 into an account that pays 4% interest compounded daily or 4.9% compounded weekl
AVprozaik [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

   4.9% weekly

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is ...

  A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

where A is the account balance that results from investing P at rate r compounded n times per year for t years.

Filling in the values for the two scenarios, we find ...

  A = 10,000(1 +0.04/365)^(365·3) ≈ 11,274.89

  A = 10,000(1 +0.049/52)^(52·3) = 11,582.74

The higher interest rate will earn Mr. Larson the most money in three years. (4.9% weekly)
