The equation y-2= 5/4 (x + 8) represents the cost (in dollars) of making your own fruit juice (fluid ounces) a. What is the slop
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

a. The slope is 5/4

b. The equation in slope and intercept form is y = 5/4·x + 12

c. The base cost of making a fruit juice is $12

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that gives the cost in dollars of making your own fruit juice is given as follows;

y - 2 = 5/4·(x + 8)

a. The slope = The coefficient of x = 5/4

The slope = 5/4

b. The equation can be presented in slope and intercept form, y = m·x + c, as follows;

y - 2 = 5/4·(x + 8)

y = 5/4·x + 10 + 2

y = 5/4·x + 12

c. The base cost of making a fruit juice = The cost added to any quantity of fruit, x made = The y-intercept, c = 12

The base cost of making a fruit juice = $12.

A random sample of 17 hotels in Boston had an average nightly room rate of $165.40 with a sample standard deviation of $21.70. T
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

•Lower confidence limit = $155.2109

•Upper confidence limit ,= $174.5891

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

U = 17

x' = $165.40

S.d = $21.70

a = 10℅ (90℅ confidence interval)

For s.d(x'), we have:

S/√u = \frac{21}{\sqrt{7}}

= 5.2630

Therefore, S.E (x') = $5.2630

At a= 0.10 (90℅ confidence level)

and degree of freedom = 16 (17-1)

Thus, t_1_6_, _0_._1_0 = 1.746

90℅ confidence interval all around sample mean, will be:

(x' ± t_(_n_-_1); a S.E (x')

= (165.4±(174.6)(5.2630)

(165.5±9.189)

($156.2109, $175.5891)

The diagram shows triangle ABC.
Nuetrik [128]
<h3>Answer: 93 degrees</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

Check out figure 1 which is one of the attached images below.

In this diagram, I have angle A as 75 degrees and angle B as 51 degrees.

Angle C is therefore, C = 180-A-B = 180-75-51 = 54 degrees.

----------

Point D is somewhere between A and B such that it is on segment AB.

Figure 2 (also attached as an image) shows segment CD forming two angles DCB and ACD.

These are the blue and red angles respectively, such that the blue angle is twice as large as the red angle.

blue angle = 2*(red angle)

This is what it means when it says the ratio of the two angles is 2:1.

I have 2x as the blue angle and x as the red angle. We don't know what x is yet, but we do know that the x and 2x combine back to angle C = 54 degrees.

So,

(angle DCB) + (angle ACD) = angle C

(2x) + (x) = 54

3x = 54

x = 54/3

x = 18

Since x = 18, this means 2*x = 2*18 = 36

Therefore,

angle DCB = 2x = 36 degrees

angle ACD = x = 18 degrees

--------

Focus solely on triangle DCB. We found angle DCB = 36 degrees and we know that angle DBC = 51

The remaining angle y = angle BDC is...

(angle BDC)+(angle DCB)+(angle DBC) = 180

(y)+(36)+(51) = 180

y+87 = 180

y+87-87 = 180-87

y = 93

angle BDC = 93 degrees

Figure 3 shows the angles we found (basically I replaced x, 2x and y with their respective numbers).
