Answer: 175 defective bulbs.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Keeping on mind that the inspector examined 100 light bulbs and found 7 defective, you can calculate the number of defective bulbs that there would be in a lot of 2500 bulbs as following:
- Let's call the number of defective bulbs that there would be in a lot of 2500 bulbs .
- Then, you have:
- Solve for x:
2. Then, there would be 175 defective bulbs in a lot of 2500 bulbs.
Answer:
<u>Linear relationship</u>: increasing or decreasing one variable will cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the other variable.
<u>Inverse relationship</u>: the value of one variable decreases as the value of the other variable increases.
<u>Exponential relationship</u>: a constant change in the independent variable (x) gives the same proportional change in the dependent variable (y)
<u>Question 5</u>
As the x-value increases (by one unit), the y-value decreases.
Therefore, this is an inverse relationship.
The y-values are calculated by dividing 35 by the x-value.
**I believe there is a typing error in the table and that the y-value of x = 3 should be 11.67**
<u>Question 6</u>
As the x-value increases, the y-value increases. The y-value increases by a factor of 5 for each x-value increase of 1 unit.
Therefore, this is an exponential relationship.
