Stephanie has a homeowners insurance policy for her $355,000 home with an annual premium of $0.42 per $100 of value and a deduct

ible of $500. Under this policy, in the event of a major mishap, Stephanie would have a total annual out-of-pocket expense of [($355,000/100) x $0.42] + $500 = $1,991
Stephanie would like to lower her premium by increasing her deductible. If Stephanie wants to increase her deductible to $1000, what annual premium would result in an annual out-of-pocket expense that is about the same as her current plan?
a. $0.16 per $100 of value
b. $0.28 per $100 of value
c. $0.35 per $100 of value
d. $0.46 per $100 of value\

Answer:

$0.28 per 100 of value (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Stephanie has a homeowner insurance policy of $355,000

Annual premium = $0.42 per 100

There is a deductible of $500

Stephanie has an annual out of pocket expense of

[($355,000/100) x $0.42] + $500 = $1,991

From the question, Stephanie now wants a new deductible amount of 1000.

Let X be the new annual premium

[(355,000X) / 100] + 1000 = 1991

3550X + 1000 = 1991

3550X = 1991 -1000

3550X = 991

X = 991/3550

X = 0.2791

X = 0.28 ( approximately)

The new annual premium is $0.28 per 100 of value

Need help answering this algebra nation question!

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Option 1, 2 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-4y-8= 12

3x-4y= 12+8 (bring constants to 1 side)

3x-4y= 20 (simplify)

For a point to be a solution of the above equation, substitute the x and y coordinates into 3x-4y and see if it equals to 20.

Option 1: (0, -5)

3(0)-4(-5)= 20

This is correct

2) (4, -2)

3(4)-4(-2)=20

This is correct

3) (8,2)

3(8)-4(2)= 16

This is incorrect.

4) (-16, -17)

3(-16)-4(-17)= 20

This is correct.

5) (-1, -8)

3(-1)-4(-8)= 29

This is incorrect.

6) (-40, -34)

3(-40)-4(-34)= 16

This is incorrect.

The graph of the quadratic function y = ax^2 + bx + c is given.<br> Find a + b + c.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

$\frac{145}{24}\approx 6$ ***

Answers may vary depending on the person reading the graph.

It is hard to tell what they think crosses nicely.

For example, I decided that the graph crossed nicely at the following points:

$(0,3)$

$(2,8)$

$(6,5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

I see that the graph crosses at $(0,3)$ , $(2,8)$ , and $(6,5)$ .

The equation $y=ax^2+bx+c$ tells us the $y$ -intercept is $c$ since when $x=0$ we have $y=a(0)^2+b(0)+c=0+0+c=c$ .

The $y$ -intercept for our graph is $3$ . Therefore, $c=3$ .

So far we have the equation:

$y=ax^2+bx+3$ .

Let's enter the other points creating a system of linear equations to solve:

$8=a(2)^2+b(2)+3$

$5=a(6)^2+b(6)+3$

Let's simplify:

$8=4a+2b+3$

$5=36a+6b+3$

Let's subtract 3 on both sides:

$5=4a+2b$

$2=36a+6b$

I choose to solve the system by elimination.

Let's multiply the top equation by -3:

$-15=-12a-6b$

$2=36a+6b$

Now adding the equations results in:

$-13=24a$

Divide both sides by 24:

$\frac{-13}{24}=a$

Now using one of the equations we can find $b$ :

$5=4a+2b$ with $a=\frac{-13}{24}$

$5=4\frac{-13}{24}+2b$

$5=\frac{-13}{6}+2b$

Add 13/6 on both sides:

$5+\frac{13}{6}=2b$

$\frac{30+13}{6}=2b$

$\frac{43}{6}=2b$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{43}{2(6)}=b$

$\frac{43}{12}=b$

So we have the equation:

$y=\frac{-13}{24}x^2+\frac{43}{12}+3$

Let's evaluate $a+b+c$ now:

$\frac{-13}{24}+\frac{43}{12}+3$

$\frac{-13+86+72}{24}$

$\frac{73+72}{24}$

$\frac{145}{24}$

Typographers measure font sizes in units called points. One point is equal to 1/72 inch. Esmeralda is typing a research paper on

IrinaK [193]

If 1 pt = 1/72 inch

and Esmeralda wants her text to be 1/72 inch tall

Surely, she should use 1 pt as her font size?
