Y=mx where m is constant
2.5=m(5)
m= 0.5
when x=10
y=0.5×10
y=5

At a museum cafe you can get a pre-made boxed lunch with a sandwich, fruit, and drink for only $3.

Anastasy [175]

Given that sandwiches are made with either turkey or ham.

Prob for turkey or ham = 1/2

The fruit can be either apple or orange. Hence p(apple) = p(orange) =12

Drinks can be either bottled water or juice

P(water) = P(juice) = 1/2

We find that sandwiches, fruits, and drinks are mutually independent of each other.

Hence the probability you will get an orange and not get juice in your box

Prob (you get an orange and bottled water)

= Prob (orange) *Prob (bottled water) (since the two are independent

= 1/2 (1/2)= 1/4

Hence answer is 0.25

1. The total number of seats in an auditorium is modeled by f(x) = 2x2 – 6x, where x represents the number of rows. How many row

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Jose's solution is not correct, the auditorium has $16$ rows

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=2x^{2} -6x$

where

f(x)------> is the total number of seats in an auditorium

x----> represents the number of rows

How many rows are there in the auditorium if it has a total of 416 seats?

Find the value of x for f(x)=416 seats

substitute the value of f(x) in the equation

$416=2x^{2} -6x$

$2x^{2} -6x-416=0$

Using a graphing calculator

The values of x are $x=-13, x=16$

The solution is

x=16 rows because the number of rows can not be a negative number
