Answer: Function 2 has a greater rate of change by 13/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We must work with linear equations, remember that the general shape is:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Ok, first we want to find the rate of change (or the slope) of the graphed line:

We know that for a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

The slope is:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Then for the graphed function, we can see that it passes through the points:

(0, -2) and (4, 0)

Then the slope is:

a = (0 -(-2))/(4 - 0) = 2/4 = 1/2

Now, the slope of the second line is 15/4.

Let's calculate the difference between the slopes:

15/4 - 1/2 = 15/4 - 2/4 = 13/4

(notice that we are calculating slope2 - slope1)

Then the correct option is:

Function 2 has a greater rate of change by 13/4

The formula of an area of a circle:

A_O=\pi r^2

We have

r = 1.8 m

π ≈ 3.14

Substitute:

A_O=\pi\cdot1.8^2=3.24\pi\ m^2\approx3.24\cdot3.14=10.1736\ m^2\approx10.17\ m^2

Suppose that you believe that contractor 1 is twice as likely to win as contractor 3 and that contractor 2 is three times as lik
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

probability that contractor 1,2 and 3 win is 33%,50% and 17% respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that there are no other contractors then:

probability that 1 , 2 or 3 win = 1

denoting as X= probability that contractor 3 wins , then assuming that only one wins , we have

probability that 1 , 2 or 3 win = 1

probability that contractor 1 wins + probability that contractor 2 wins + probability that contractor 3 wins = 1

2*P(X) + 3*P(X) + P(X) = 1

6*P(X) = 1

P(X) =1/6

then

-probability that contractor 1 wins = 2/6 (33%)

-probability that contractor 3 wins = 3/6 (50%)

-probability that contractor 3 wins = 1/6 (17%)
