Linda found that the cost to get a swimming pool installed in her backyard is a linear function of the pool's area. A swimming p

ool with an area of 1,500 square feet can be installed for $54,000, whereas the installation of a 700 square foot swimming pool costs $30,000. Make a graph that represents this function and write the equation of the line. Let A represent the pools area and C represent the cost.

Answer:

T he equation of the line is C = 30A + 9000

Step-by-step explanation:

If A represents the Area and C represents the cost, then we know that:

For an area A = 1500 square feet, the cost is C = 54000

If A = 700, then, C = 30000

Since we know that the cost equation is a function of the area it is a linear relationship so we must find the equation of the line

C = mA + b

Where:

m is the slope of the line

b is the intersection with the C axis ..

We already have 2 points:

(700, 30000)

(1500, 54000)

With these points we find the slope using the formula:

m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m = \frac{54000-30000}{1500-700}\\\\m = 30

So the equation is:

C = 30A +b

We find b replacing the point (700, 30000) in the equation

30000 = 30(700) + b\\\\30000 -21000=b

b = 9000

So

C = 30A + 9000

The graph of the linear equation is shown in the attached image

If the perimeter of a square is 20, find the length of a diagonal
avanturin [10]

Answer:

7.07

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u>Length</u></h2>

a square has equal length on each side

hence is the perimeter is 20 it means that :

each side is 20/4 = 5

we can make a diagonal line which create 3 right angled triangles

2 sides of the triangle are 5 , this is the base and the height

to find the length we can make use of the Pythagoras theorem

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

c is the hypotenuse ( the diagonal;)

a and b are the opposite and adjacent

hence :

c^2 = 5 ^2 + 5^2

c^2 = 50

c = \sqrt{50}

c = 7.071

to 3sf

<h3><u>diagonal length  = 7.07</u></h3>

How to solve this and explain
Goryan [66]
You first wanna find <BAD, because if AB is perpendicular to AC, then it has to form a 90 degree angle. So 90-56=34 degrees. So now you have a 34 & 63 degrees in the ABD triangle. In a triangle, all angles add up to equal 180 degrees. So 34+63+x=180...and x=83. So <ADB= 83 degrees. Now you want to find angle ADC...which you can just subtract 83 from 180 (because <ADB & <ADC forms 180 degree angle). You will then get 97 as angle ADC. So, the same thing as before, add up 56+97+x=180, because all angles (in the triangle ADC) add up to be 180 degrees. X will then equal 27 degrees. Angle ACB= 27 degrees.

Suppose on a certain planet that a rare substance known as Raritanium can be found in some of the rocks. A raritanium-detector i
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

0.967 = 96.7% probability the rock sample actually contains raritanium

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Positive reading

Event B: Contains raritanium

Probability of a positive reading:

98% of 13%(positive when there is raritanium).

0.5% of 100-13 = 87%(false positive, positive when there is no raritanium). So

P(A) = 0.98*0.13 + 0.005*0.87 = 0.13175

Positive when there is raritanium:

98% of 13%

P(A) = 0.98*0.13 = 0.1274

What is the probability the rock sample actually contains raritanium?

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1274}{0.13175} = 0.967

0.967 = 96.7% probability the rock sample actually contains raritanium
