Two cars got an oil change at the same auto shop. The shop charges customers for each quart of oil plus a flat fee for labor. Th

e oil change for one car required 5 quarts of oil and cost $22.45. The oil change for the other car required 7 quarts of oil and cost $25.45. How much is the labor fee and how much is each quart of oil?

(5,22.45),(7,25.45)
slope = (25.45 - 22.45) / (7 - 5) = 3/2 or 1.5

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1.5
use either of ur points...(5,22.45)...x = 5 and y = 22.45
now sub and find b
22.45 = 1.5(5) + b
22.45 = 7.5 + b
22.45 - 7.5 = b
14.95 = b

so ur equation is : y = 1.5x + 14.95.......this means that each quart of oil costs $ 1.50 and the labor fee costs $ 14.95

Which of the following equations best models the data plotted below?
ICE Princess25 [194]
The key with these problems is to find which function has the closest y-intercept to the graph, and then try to figure out which one best approximates the slope. 
Here are our options:
<span>A. y = x + 4 
B. y = 4x + 9 
C. y = x + 18 
D. y = 3x + 22
 
Which has the closest approximation of the y-intercept? 
The y-intercept is not directly given, but we can assume it is less than 10. 
That leaves us with A and B.

Which has the closest approximation of the slope? 
The graph, on average, seems to move up about 60 and over about 15. 
Slope = rise/run = 60/15 = 4. Although the slope isn't exactly 4, it's much closer to 4 than 1, which is slope for option A.

Therefore, the answer is 
B) y= 4x + 9

A company with a fleet of 150 cars found that the emissions systems of only 4 out of the 32 they tested failed to meet pollution
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find how many cars out of the entire fleet fail the test

4/32 = x/150

Cross multiply to find x

32x = 150(4)

32x = 600

32x/32 = 600/32

x = 18.75

I'll round it to 19. So 19 out of 150 cars fail the test. Find the percentage of this and compare it to the 30% estimate

19 /150 = 0.127

0.127(100) = 12.7%

12.7% is obviously lower than 30% so yes it is strong evidence the percentage of the fleet out of compliance is different from their initial thought
