Answer:

The y-intercept in coordinate form is (0, 4.5) and represents the taxi pick-up fee.  The equation is y=1.5x + 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking for the slope and y-intercept of a linear equation.  A linear equation makes a straight line based on a constant rate of change.  For this problem, the cost per mile is the slope, while the independent variable 'x' is the number of miles and the dependent variable 'y' is the total cost.  In order to first find slope, you need to use the two points given (7, 15) and (10, 19.5) to set up a change in y / change in x, or (19.5-15)/(10-7) or 4.5/3 which is 1.5.  So the slope, or cost per mile is $1.50.  To find the y-intercept (b), or the cost of the pick-up fee, simply fill in your equation y=1.5x + b with your other variables and solve for 'b'.  So, 15 = (1.5 x7) + b.  or 15 = 10.5 +b, subtract 10.5 from both sides of the equation to get b=4.5.

What is 2 3/8 as an improper fraction?<br><br> Give answers, please.
m_a_m_a [10]

To convert a mixed fraction into an improper fraction, we must follow some steps.

First, we take the whole part and multiply it by the denominator of the fraction.

In this case, we take 2 and multiply it by 8.

Now we add the numerator:

16+3=19

The denominator stays the same:

\frac{19}{8}

Hope it helps! :)

Suppose that the quarterly sales levels among health care information systems companies are approximately normally distributed w
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The cutoff sales level is 10.7436 millions of dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 12, \sigma = 1.2

15th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.15. So X when Z = -1.047.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-1.047 = \frac{X - 12}{1.2}

X - 12 = -1.047*1.2

X = 10.7436

The cutoff sales level is 10.7436 millions of dollars

Im bad at composite figures || please hurry
goldfiish [28.3K]

The figure is the combination of trapezoid and square. Then the area of the figure will be 39 square meters.

The complete question is attached below.

<h3>What is Geometry?</h3>

It deals with the size of geometry, region, and density of the different forms both 2D and 3D.

The figure is the combination of trapezoid and square.

Then the area of the geometry will be

Area = Area of trapezoid + Area of square

Area = 1/2 x (3 + 9) x 5 + 3 x 3

Area = 30 + 9

Area = 39 square meters

More about the geometry link is given below.

IceJOKER [234]
Your not being very discriptive... BUT if you are finding 'x'...
(14x-35)/17=7
*17 *17
14x-35=119
+35 +35
14x=154
/14 /14
