Answer:

Q1:  20,000 envelopes

Q2: Savings = $700

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of envelopes stuffed by each be "x"

We can create 2 equations, each for Anna and Jason, equate them and find our answer.

<u>For Anna:</u>

$14 for 400, so

14/400 = $0.035 PER ENVELOPE

Savings for Anna is  0.035x

<u>For Jason:</u>

Already has 100 (fixed)

Gets $9 for 300 envelopes, so

9/300 = $0.03 PER ENVELOPE

Savings for Jason is  100 + 0.03x

We equate and solve for x:

0.035x=100+0.03x\\0.005x=100\\x=20,000

So, For both their savings to be equal, they need to stuff 20,000 envelopes

Their savings would be:

0.035x

or 100 + 0.03x

We can plug in x = 20,000 in any one equation, the answer would be same.

So,

0.035(20,000) = $700

savings = $700

-Dominant- [34]
The least-square regression line has a slope of:

m=(nΣxy-ΣyΣx)/(nΣx²-ΣxΣx)

and a y-intercept of:

b=(Σy-mΣx)/n

In this case: n=7, Σxy=4899, Σy=391, Σx=85, Σx²=1153 so

m=(7(4899)-391*85)/(7(1153)-85*85))=1058/846

b=(391*846-85*1058)/(7*846)=34408/846

So the line of best fit is:

y=(1058x+34408)/846  and if we approximated this as your answers see to have done....

y=1.25x+40.67

Is 7/9 a rational number ?
zzz [600]

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational numbers can be represented as fractions with integers. The denominator must not equal 0.

\frac{7}{9} is already in this form. This means that it's a rational number.

Hope this helps.
