Callie is comparing the costs of two options for her college education.

Ainat [17]

Answer:

Callie's comparison of two options for college education

The true statement is:

She would save $11,300 by choosing option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost Analyses:

Option A: Community College + University Total Expenses

Tuition & Fees $5,800 ($2,900 x 2) + $19,000 ($9,500 x 2) = $24,800

Scholarships ($1,600) ($800 x 2) + ($20,000) ($10,000 x 2)=($21,600)

Room & Board $2,500 ($1,250 x 2) + $23,000 ($11,500 x 2) = $25,500

Work-Study + ($4,000) ($2,000 x 2) = ($4,000)

Total Cost $6,700 + $18,000 = $24,700

Option B: 4 years' University

Tuition & Fees $38,000 ($9,500 x 4)

Scholarships ($40,000) ($10,000 x 4)

Room & Board $46,000 ($11,500 x 4)

Work-Study ($8,000) ($2,000 x 4)

Total Cost $36,000

Difference between the two options = $11,300 ($36,000 - $24,700

Find the midpoint of the line segment joining the two points.<br> (1.8, -3.4) and (-0.4, 1.4)

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

(0.7, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the coordinates for the midpoint you add each coordinate together and divide by 2.

M = ( $\frac{1.8 - 0.4}{2}, \frac{-3.4 + 1.4}{2}$ )

M = $(\frac{1.4}{2}, \frac{-2}{2})$

M = (0.7, -1)

Write the standard form of the line that contains a slope of 1/2 and y-intercept of 3. Include your work in your final answer. T

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

2y-x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is ax+by=c.

Slope form : y=mx+n where m is slope n-y intercept.

First we write in slope form

$y=\frac{1}{2}x+3$

Now we can multiply both sides by 2.

2y=x+6

Subtract for each side x

2y-x=6
