PART A: Maria rented a coat at $285 for 3 days. If she rents the same coat for 60 days, she has to pay a total rent of $510. Wri

te an equation in standard form to represent the total rent (y) that Maria has to pay for renting the coat for x days.
PART B: Write the equation obtained in Part A using function notation.
PART C: Describe the steps to graph the equation obtained above on the coordinate axes. Mention the labels on the axes and the intervals.

<span>1) Name the variables

Number of days: x

rent: y

2) state the initial points

   x           y
days        $

  3           285

60           510


3) assume linear relation:

=> (y - yo) / (x - xo) = (y1 - yo) / (x1 - xo)

=> (y - 285) / (x - 3) = (510 - 285) / (60 - 3)

=> (y - 285) / (x - 3) = 225 / 57 = 75 / 19

=> 19 (y - 285) = 75 (x - 3)

=> 19y - 19*285 = 75x - 75*3

=> 19y - 75x = 5415 - 225

=> 19y  - 75x = 5190

=> standar form = -75x + 19y = 5190


PART B: Write the equation obtained in Part A using function notation.

-75x + 19y = 5190

=> 19y = 5190 + 75x

=> y = 5190/19 + (75/19)x

=> function notation = f(x) = (75/19)x + 5190 / 19

PART C: Describe the steps to graph the equation obtained above on the coordinate axes. Mention the labels on the axes and the intervals.

1) Coordinate axes:

x: number of days

y: rent

2) draw the two given points: (3,285) and (60, 510)

3) draw the line that joins those points from the interception of the y-axis until some points further (60, 510).

Suppose I live in a society with two goods: X and Y. Production of ________________ is my next best alternative to the productio
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Y

opportunity cost

Step-by-step explanation:

The Production Possibilities Curve, shows the maximum combinations of two goods a theoretical economy can produce with the current state of technology and given the available resources.

Any increase in the production of one commodity must be done at the expense of the other, the opportunity cost of the good increased is the number of unit of the other that we have to give up.

in this question the opportunity cost of producing 10 more unit of good X is the 5 units of good Y that was given up.

A taste test asks people from Texas and California which pasta they prefer,
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Yes, they are independent because P(Texas) ≈ 0.45 and P(Texas/brand A) ≈ 0.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a taste test asks people from Texas and California which pasta they prefer,  brand A or brand B. The table is given in the question.

A person is randomly selected from those tested.

And we have find that are being from Texas and preferring brand A independent events or not.

Firstly, we know that these two events will be independent when;

               P(Texas) = P(Texas/brand A)

Now, P(Texas) =  \frac{\text{Number of people from Texas}}{\text{Total number of people}}

                        =  \frac{125}{275}  ≈ 0.45

Also,  P(Texas/brand A)  =  \frac{P(Texas \bigcap Brand A)}{P(Brand A)}

                                        =  \frac{\text{Number of people from Texas and preferring brand A}}{\text{Number of people preferring brand A}}

                                        =  \frac{80}{176}  ≈ 0.45

Therefore, being from Texas and preferring brand A are independent events because P(Texas) ≈ 0.45 and P(Texas/brand A) ≈ 0.45.

Consider the statement, "Confidence intervals are underutilized" and explain what the implications might be of using or not usin
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence intervals have been underutilized prior to this time.

The implications of not using confidence intervals include:

- The under-representation or over-representation of research results that amounts from the use of a single figure to represent a statistic.

- In Market Research analysis, neglecting the use of confidence intervals will increase the risk of your portfolio.

Implications/Importance of using confidence intervals include:

- Calculation of confidence interval gives additional information about the likely values of the statistic you are estimating.

- In the presentation and comprehension of results, confidence intervals give more accuracy from the data or metrics captured.

- Given a sample mean, confidence intervals show the likely range of values of the population mean.
