Let x represent the number of minutes and y the cost. Then
y - 0.85 = (1.10 - 0.85)/(10 - 5) (x - 5)
y - 0.85 = 0.25/5 (x - 5) = 1/20 (x - 5) = 1/20 x - 1/4
y = 0.05x - 0.25 + 0.85 = 0.05x + 0.6
y = 0.05x + 0.6

The cost of 25 minutes = 0.05(25) + 0.6 = 1.25 + 0.6 = $1.85

Given the functions f(x) = 3(0.56)^x and g(x) = 6(4)^x
rodikova [14]
A)  f(x) is decreasing because the base is less than 1.
      0.56 is close to 0.5, so its like saying that you are taking half each time, therefore the value is getting smaller.

g(x) is increasing because the base is greater than 1.
you are multiplying by 4 each time, making the value bigger.


B )  The y-intercept is where x=0.
      Anything to the '0' power is 1. Therefore the y-intercept is equal to the coefficient in front of each function.
    f(x) = 3 ,   g(x) = 6


C)  Just plug in x=4 to each function in a calculator.
 f(4) = 0.295
g(4) = 1536

What is the degree 3 polynomial that has zeros -3,2 and 5 and in which the coefficient of x^2 is -8?
Setler [38]
For zeroes/roots r1,r2, r3
the facors of the polynomial is
(x-r1)(x-r2)(x-r3)

roots
-3,2,5
(x-(-3))(x-2)(x-5)
(x+3)(x-2)(x-5)
the coefient of the x term is -4
so mutliply the whole thing by 2

(2)(x+3)(x-2)(x-5)

expand
f(x)=2x^3-8x^2-22x+60

a random sample of 510 high school students has a normal distribution. The sample mean average ACT exam score was 21 with a 3.2
34kurt

Answer:

CI = 21 ± 0.365

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval is:

CI = x ± SE * CV

where x is the sample mean, SE is the standard error, and CV is the critical value (either t score or z score).

Here, x = 21.

The standard error for a sample mean is:

SE = σ / √n

SE = 3.2 / √510

SE = 0.142

The critical value is looked up in a table or found with a calculator.  But first, we must find the alpha level and the critical probability.

α = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01

p* = 1 - (α/2) = 1 - (0.01/2) = 0.995

Using a calculator or a z-score table:

P(x<z) = 0.995

z = 2.576

Therefore:

CI = 21 ± 0.142 × 2.576

CI = 21 ± 0.365

Round as needed.
