We know that a line of best fit is a straight line drawn for a given data which may or may not pass through data points.

It is given that the line is drawn for 7 data points. Hence, the line may or may not pass through all these 7 points.

Therefore, the maximum number of data points that may not actually be on the line is 7.

A scuba diving company currently charges $100per dive. On average, there are 30 customers per day. The company performed a study
Semenov [28]

A. Total Revenue (R) is equal to price per dive (P) multiplied by number of customers (C). We can write R=PC.

Per price increase is $20. So four price increase is $20*4=$80. Hence, price per dive is 100+80=$180.

Also per price increase, 2 customers are reduced from 30. For 4 price increases, 4*2=8 customers are reduced. Hence, total customers is 30-8=22.

So Total Revenue is:

R=180*22=3960


B. Each price increase is 20. So x price increase is 20x. Hence, new price per dive would be equal to the sum of 100 and 20x.

Also per price increase, customers decrease by 2. So per x price increases, the customer decrease is 2x. Hence, new number of customers is the difference of 30 and 2x.

Therefor we can write the quadratic equation for total revenue as the new price times the new number of customers.

R=(100+2x)(30-2x)=-40x^{2}+400x+3000


C. We are looking for the point (x) at which the equation modeled in part (B) gives a maximum value of revenue (y). That x value is given as x=-\frac{b}{2a}, where a is the coefficient of x^{2} and b is the coefficient of x. So we have,

x=-\frac{b}{2a}=- \frac{400}{(2)(-40)}=5

That means, the greatest revenue is achieved after 5 price increases. Each price increase was 20, so 5 price increase would be 5*20=100. So the price that gives the greatest revenue is 100+100=200.

ANSWERS:

A. $3960

B. R=-40x^{2}+400x+3000

C. $200

Answer:

<h3>perpendicular line:    y = -¹/₆ x + 4¹/₃ </h3><h3>  parallel line:              y = 6x - 45 </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

y=m₁x+b₁   ⊥   y=m₂x+b₂   ⇔    m₁×m₂ = -1

{Two lines are perpendicular if the product of theirs slopes is equal -1}

y = 6x - 7   ⇒   m₁=6

6×m₂ = -1        ⇒    m₂ = -¹/₆

 

The line y=-¹/₆ x+b passes through point (8, 3) so the equation:

3 = -¹/₆ ×8 + b must be true

3 = -⁴/₃ + b

b = 4¹/₃

Therefore equation in  slope-intercept form:

                                                     y = -¹/₆ x + 4¹/₃

y=m₁x+b₁   ║   y=m₂x+b₂   ⇔    m₁ = m₂

{Two lines are parallel if  their slopes are equal}

y = 6x - 7   ⇒   m₁=6   ⇒   m₂=6

The line y=6x+b passes through point (8, 3) so the equation:

3 = 6×8 + b must be true

3 = 48 + b

b = -45

Therefore equation in  slope-intercept form:

                                                     y = 6x - 45

The Greatest Problems on Campus
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: D.) This is an example of inductive reasoning because a general conclusion is reached based on a specific example,

Step-by-step explanation: Inductive reasoning simply refers to making conclusion about a specific subject or topic from patterns or insights derived from related examples. In the scenario above, the conclusion reached encompasses the overall full time 4 years college student. However, this conclusion was inferred based on a specific example comprising of only a randomized sample of 1200 full time 4 years college students in 100 campuses. random. The example failed to incorporate every student, Hence, the conclusion is induced as the choice of a sample of students may not convey the choice or decision of all.

Deductive reasoning meanwhile follows that a generally established fact is used to make conclusion about a specific example.

If m=8, how many solutions are there for the expression m-8?
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

1 solution, 0

Step-by-step explanation:

In algebra, a variable can be equal to any amount of numbers depending on how it is used. In this case, m is only equal to the one value of 8, and therefore only has <u>one solution.</u>

m - 8
