The monthly cost will be $17.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the monthly cost (in dollars) of a long-distance phone plan is a linear function of the total calling time (in minutes) then this can be presented in a table form as;

<u>Time in minutes (x)</u>        <u>Cost in dollars (y)</u>

50                                          $12.55

102                                         $ 17.23

Take the values as ordered pairs to represent coordinates for points that satisfy the linear function

(50,12.55)  and (102,17.23)

Finding the slope of the graph using these points

slope,m=Δy/Δx

m=Δy=17.23-12.55 =4.68

Δx=102-50=52

m=4.68/52 =0.09

Finding the equation of the linear function using m=0.09, and point (50,12.55)

m=Δy/Δx

0.09=y-12.55/x-50

0.09(x-50)=y-12.55

0.09x-4.5=y-12.55

0.09x-4.5+12.55=y

y=0.09x+8.05

So for 101 minutes , the cost will be;

y=0.09*101 +8.05

y=9.09+8.05 = $17.14

A consumer affairs investigator records the repair cost for 4 randomly selected washers. A sample mean of $64.26 and standard de
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Critical value: z = 1.28

The 80% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the washers is between $46.487 and $82.033.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.80}{2} = 0.10

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.1 = 0.9, so z = 1.28

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

So

M = 1.28*\frac{27.77}{\sqrt{4}} = 17.773

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So 64.26 - 17.773 = $46.487.

The upper end of the interval is M added to the mean. So 64.26 + 17.773 = $82.033.

The 80% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the washers is between $46.487 and $82.033.

Subtract the sum of a^2 − 2ab + b^2 and 2a^2 + 2ab + b^2 from the sum of a^2 − b^2 and a^2 + ab + 3b^2
solniwko [45]

Answer:

-a^2 + ab

Step-by-step explanation:

(a^2 - 2ab +b^2) + (2a^2 + 2ab + b2) = 3a^2 + 2b^2

(a^2 - b^2) + (a^2 + ab + 3b^2) = 2a^2 + 2b^2 + ab

subtract the first part from the second part:

(2a^2 + 2b^2 + ab) - (3a^2 + 2b^2) =    -a^2 + ab
