Any linear function is of the form y=mx+b
Here m is slope and b is y intercept.
Slope is difference in y divided by different in x values .
In the question for 5 persons cost is $100 and for 10 persons cost is $162.50
So the points are (5,100) and (10,162.50)
Slope m=
=12.50
We can find the value of b by taking m=12.50 and (x,y)=(5,100)
Substitute these values in y=mx+b
100=12.50(5)+b
100=62.50+b
Subtracting 62.50 both sides
b=100-62.50
b=37.5
a) Put m=12.50 and b=37.50 to get the equation
y=12.50x+37.50
b)Rate of change is the m value or the slope of the function.
Initial value that is (5,100) gives us one of the points to find the rate of change.
Answer:
Those points are 
units apart.
Answer:
Graph C
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
The given linear equations are organized in slope-intercept form: 
where <em>m</em> is the slope of the line and <em>b</em> is the y-intercept, or the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis.
y = 2x + 4
Here, the <em>b</em> value is 4. Therefore, the y-intercept of this line is 4.
y = -3x - 2
Here, the <em>b</em> value is -2. Therefore, the y-intercept of this line is -2.
To identify the graph that models these equations, we just have to look for the graph where the lines cross the y-axis at 4 and -2.
The only graph that does this is graph C.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
Volume of cone = (1/3) * Volume of cylinder
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formulas
Volume of cone = (1/3)* π r^2 *h
Volume of cylinder = π r^2 *h
Therefore
Volume of cone = (1/3) * Volume of cylinder
Part B is not clear and the clear one is;
P(X ≥ 6)
Answer:
A) 0.238
B) 0.478
C) 0.114
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we will make use of binomial probability formula;
P(X = x) = nCx × p^(x)•(1 - p) ^(n - x)
A) 54% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. Thus;
p = 0.54
10 random adults are selected. Thus;
P(X = 5) = 10C5 × 0.54^(5) × (1 - 0.54)^(10 - 5)
P(X = 5) = 0.238
B) P(X ≥ 6) = P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9) + P(10)
From online binomial probability calculator, we have;
P(X ≥ 6) = 0.2331 + 0.1564 + 0.0688 + 0.01796 + 0.0021 = 0.47836 ≈ 0.478
C) P(x<4) = P(3) + P(2) + P(1) + P(0)
Again with online binomial probability calculations, we have;
P(x<4) = 0.1141 ≈ 0.114
