Total cost

17.95 + 27.50 + 94.20 + 12.30 + 12.30 = 164.25

tax

164.25 * 5% = 8.21

164.25 * 1.5% = 2.47

164.25 * 2% = 3.28

sum of the tax

8.21 + 2.47 +3.28 =

13.96

your answer is C

All of the functions shown below are either exponential growth or decay functions.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If an exponential function is in the form of y = a(b)ˣ,

a = Initial quantity

b = Growth factor

x = Duration

Condition for exponential growth → b > 1

Condition for exponential decay → 0 < b < 1

Now we ca apply this condition in the given functions,

1). y=3.2(1+0.45)^{2x}

   Here, (1 + 0.45) = 1.45 > 1

   Therefore, It's an exponential growth.

2). y=(0.85)^{3x}

    Here, (0.85) is between 0 and 1,

    Therefore, it's an exponential decay.

3). y = (1 - 0.03)ˣ + 4

    Here, (1 - 0.03) = 0.97

    And 0 < 0.97 < 1

    Therefore, It's an exponential decay.

4). y = 0.5(1.2)ˣ + 2

    Here, 1.2 > 1

    Therefore, it's an exponential growth.

Shiny White dental insurance costs $258 per year. Approximately one-third of insured people need a filling, which averages $110
sveta [45]

Answer:

  about $145.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a group of 15 customers. They will pay ...

  15 × $258 = $3870

in premiums each year.

One-third of those, 5 customers, will submit claims for fillings, so will cost the insurance company ...

  5 × $110 = $550

And 80% of them, 12 customers, will submit claims for preventive check-ups, so will cost the company ...

  12 × $95 = $1140

The net income from these 15 customers will be ...

  $3870 -550 -1140 = $2180

Then the average income per customer is this value divided by the 15 customers in the group:

  $2180/15 = $145.33

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

Above, we chose a number of customers that made 1/3 of them and 4/5 of them be whole numbers. You can also work with one premium and the probability of a claim:

  258 - (1/3)·110 - 0.80·95 = 145.33
