positive becomes negative while two negatives make a positive.
Answer:
1.) 12 hours 2.) She made a multiplying error in the table.
Step-by-step explanation:
1.)
First, let's find the slope of this equation:
m = 135 - 81 / 5 - 3
m = 54/2
m = 27
Therefore, the equation should be y = 27x.
Now we substitute 324 for y and solve for x:
324 = 27x
12 = x (Divided 27 on both sides.)
Therefore, someone would have to work 12 hours in order to earn $324.
2.)
For this problem, it appears Amanda has found the correct equation for her recipe. When taking a look at the table, however, it seems as though she has made a multiplying error.
P( both allergic) = 0.17*0.17 = 0.0289
P(at least one is allergic) = 1 - P(neither are allergic) = 1 - 0.83^2 = 0.311
