Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Family of 2

Cost, C1 = $25

Family of 6

Cost, C2 = $65

Given that 2 points are given above as the following in coordinate form:

A(2,25) and B(6,65)

Rate of change is given as = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

= (65 - 25)/(6-2)

= 40/4

Therefore,

(y - y1)/(x - x1) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

(y - 25)/(65 - 25) = (x - 2)/(6 - 2)

(y - 25)/40 = (x - 2)/4

(y - 25) = 40/4 × (x - 2)

(y - 25) = 10 × (x - 2)

Expanding,

y - 25 = 10x - 20

y = 10x - 20 + 25

y = 10x + 5

Answer:

18q^2 - 52q + 32

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Distributive Property to solve this.

(2q-4)(9q-8)

2q(9q) + 2q(-8) + -4(9q) + -4(-8)

18q^2 - 16q - 36q + 32

18q^2 - 52q + 32

18q^2 - 52q + 32

Do you guys support animal testing? (putting drug into animals to see how it affects them)
swat32

<em>I am against people doing this.</em>

<em>I think it's wrong because for some reason scientists are permitted to do this but that is breaking the law. I hate how they do it because these are just innocent animals that did nothing wrong to us, our scientists just decide it's ok to go stick needles in them and put stuff on them. My biggest problem with this is that they don't care about the effects their products have on innocent animals and instead of fixing their mistake and just apply it to humans, they just keep on going like there's no tomorrow. Animals have done nothing wrong to these people and I think that it's wrong to do so. Also, I don't really think that this proves anything. An animal's skin and fur are different than a human's skin and hair so it would make no sense to test these things on them because it really is guaranteed to give an accurate answer. Animals differ from us in so many ways that you should be able to think that scientists wouldn't harm these lovely creatures, but instead, they do. Why do scientists hurt these animals? I don't want to live in a world with hurt animals, especially when some of them have World Records, like the Sea Otter.</em>

A rectangle has perimeter, P, length, land width, w. Which of the following represents lin
almond37 [142]

Answer:

l=\frac{P}{2}-w.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of it's side lengths.

A rectangle has 4 sides where it's opposite sides are congruent.

So if one side has measurement w, then there is another side that has measurement w.

If there is one side that has measurement l, then there is another side that has measurement l.

So if you add w+w+l+l you get 2w+2l.

They are giving us that the perimeter is P, so P=2w+2l.

we are being asking to solve for l.

P=2w+2l

First step: Isolate term that contains the l, so get 2l by itself first.

We are going to subtract 2w on both sides giving us:

P-2w=2l

2l=P-2w

Now that we have 2l by itself it is time to perform the last step in getting l by itself.

Second step: Divide both sides by 2.

This gives us:

l=(P-2w)/2

You may separate the fraction like so:

l=\frac{P-2w}{2}=\frac{P}{2}-\frac{2w}{2}=\frac{P}{2}-w.

I don't know your options but I have solve for l in terms of P and w

and got l=\frac{P}{2}-w.

Please let me know if you have further questions with this problem.

Approximately 12.6% of all (untreated) Jonathan apples had bitter pit in a study conducted by the botanists Ratkowsky and Martin
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be a random variable that represents the first Jonathan apple chosen at random that has bitter pit.

a) P(X = n) = q(n-1)p, where q = 1 - p.

From the information given, probability if success, p = 12.6/100 = 0.126

b) for n = 3, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is

P(n = 3) = 0.096

For n = 5, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is

P(n = 5) = 0.074

For n = 12, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is

P(n = 12) = 0.8

c) For n ≥ 5, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is

P(n ≥ 5) = 0.58

d) the expected number of apples that must be examined to find the first one with bitter pit is the mean.

Mean = 1/p

Mean = 1/0.126 = 7.9

Approximately 8 apples
