A company is paying a local television station to run its commercials. The cost for running commercials is a one-time campaign f

ee and also a per-second fee for the air time of each commercial. The cost can be modeled by the equation y = 500 + 50x where x is seconds.
What is the y-intercept and what does it represent?

A. 500; it represents the per-second fee of air time

B. 500; it represents the one-time campaign fee

C. 50; it represents the per-second fee of air time

D. 50; it represents the one-time campaign fee

The y-intercept is the value of y when x is equal to zero. From the equation,

y = 500 + 50x

the y-intercept is calculated by:

y = 500 + 50(0) = 500

Therefore, the correct answer is option B. The y-intercept is 500; it represents the one-time campaign fee.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

A meeting on an unpopular topic has been announced. The number of attendees may be modeled by X where:

P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,...

What is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend?

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Given:

P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,...                    (1)

Since it is given that at least 2 attend, it implies that we need to calculate P(x) at x = 2.

Substituting x = 2 into equation (1), we have:

P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^(2 + 1)

P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^3

P(X = 2) = 1 / 8

P(X = 2) = 0.1250, or 12.50%

Therefore, is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.

Sally is having a problem with her puppy leaving the yard so she decides to build a new fence. The length of the yard is 10 feet
Cerrena [4.2K]

The length of the yard is 25ft.

In order to find this we first need to set up variables for the length and the width. Since we don't know anything about the width, we'll set it as x. Then, we know the length is equal to ten more than three times the width. Since the width is x, we can write the length as 3x + 10. Now we can use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle to solve for x.

2l + 2w = P

2(3x + 10) + 2(x) = 60

6x + 20 + 2x = 60

8x + 20 = 60

8x = 40

x = 5

Now that we have a value for x, we can plug into the length equation and find the length.

3x + 10

3(5) + 10

15 + 10

25
