Answer:

Part A) For the number of hours less than 5 hours it make more sense to rent a scooter from Rosie's

Part B) For the number of hours greater than 5 hours it make more sense to rent a scooter from Sam's

Part C) Yes, for the number of hours equal to 5 the cost of Sam'scooters is equal to the cost of Rosie's scooters

Part D) The cost is $90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> the number of hours (independent variable)

y-----> the total cost of rent scooters (dependent variable)

we know that

Sam's scooters

$y=8x+30$

Rosie's scooters

$y=10x+20$

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

A. when does it make more sense to rent a scooter from Rosie's? How do you know?

For the number of hours less than 5 hours it make more sense to rent a scooter from Rosie's (see the attached figure) because the cost in less than Sam' scooters

B. when does it make more sense to rent a scooter from Sam's? How do you know?

For the number of hours greater than 5 hours it make more sense to rent a scooter from Sam's (see the attached figure) because the cost in less than Rosie' scooters

C. Is there ever a time where it wouldn't matter which store to choose?

Yes, for the number of hours equal to 5 the cost of Sam'scooters is equal to the cost of Rosie's scooters. The cost is $70 (see the graph)

D. If you were renting a scooter from Rosie's, how much would you pay if you were planning on renting for 7 hours?

Rosie's scooters

$y=10x+20$

For x=7 hours

substitute

$y=10(7)+20=90$

The cost is $90

Which rule can be used to describe the growth of the y-values of the function y =12x over each interval from x=-1 to x=3

pav-90 [236]

The function y=12x when plotted using the interval of x-values from -1 to 3 will give a straight line on a given plot. Therefore the function rule of a line y=mx+b can be used to describe the growth or progression of this function. The rule states that y is directly proportional to x.

In each box, 15% of the total candies are cherry flavored.

ivolga24 [154]

So first 15/100 which is 15 percent and out of 20, thats 15.
20. 100. 100X15 divided by 20 which is 75. I did cross multiplication ok. So I just did 20 times 15 and then divided by 100

Sandy is upgrading her Internet service. Fast Internet charges $40 for installation and $52.45 per month.

Orlov [11]

Answer:

After 8 months of internet use both the connection will cost the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fast Internet charges $40 for installation and $52.45 per month.

So, the total cost after using x months of the internet in Fast Internet will be

C = 40 + 52.45x

Quick Internet has free installation but charges $57.45 per month.

So, the total cost after using x months of the internet in Quick Internet will be

C = 57.45x

Now, if those two cost are same then

40 + 52.45x = 57.45x

⇒ 5x = 40

⇒ x = 8

Therefore, after 8 months of internet use both the connection will cost the same. (Answer)

Explain how to use Pascal's Triangle to expand the binomial (3x-4y)^11

Mars2501 [29]

The solution to the binomial expression by using Pascal's triangle is:

$\mathbf{=177147x^{11}-2598156x^{10}y +17321040x^9y^2-69284160x^8y^3+184757760x^7y^4}$

$\mathbf{-344881152x^6y^5+459841536x^5y^6-437944320x^4y^7+291962880x^3y^8}$

$\mathbf{-129761280x2y^9+34603008xy^{10}-4194304y^{11}}$

<h3>How can we use Pascal's triangle to expand a binomial expression?</h3>

Pascal's triangle can be used to calculate the coefficients of the expansion of (a+b)ⁿ by taking the exponent (n) and adding the value of 1 to it. The coefficients will correspond with the line (n+1) of the triangle.

We can have the Pascal tree triangle expressed as follows:

1 1

1 2 1

1 3 3 1

1 4 6 4 1

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

From the given information:

The expansion of (3x-4y)^11 will correspond to line 11.

Using the general formula for the Pascal triangle:

$\mathbf{(a+b)^n = c_oa^nb^0 + c_1 a^{n-1}b^1+c_{n-1}a^1b^{n-1}+c_na^0b^n}$

The solution to the expansion of the binomial (3x-4y)^11 can be computed as:

$\mathbf{=177147x^{11}-2598156x^{10}y +17321040x^9y^2-69284160x^8y^3+184757760x^7y^4}$

$\mathbf{-344881152x^6y^5+459841536x^5y^6-437944320x^4y^7+291962880x^3y^8}$

$\mathbf{-129761280x2y^9+34603008xy^{10}-4194304y^{11}}$

Select "Yes" or "No" to indicate whether the ordered pair is on the graph of the function f(x)=−25^x+1.

KengaRu [80]

<span>(1,625) No (0,-25) No (-1,-1) No Think about what an integer exponent means for an negative base and you'll understand this problem. For instance the powers of -25 would be -25^1 = -25 -25^2 = (-25) * (-25) = 625 -25^3 = (-25)*(-25)*(-25) = -15625 and so on, giving 390625, -9765625, 244140625, etc. But that's a different subject. For the ordered pairs given, let's check them out. (1,625) -25^1 + 1 = -25 + 1 = -24. And -24 is not equal to 625, so "No". (0,-25) -25^0 + 1 = 1 +1 = 2. Note: Any real number other than 0 raised to the 0th power is 1. And 2 is not equal to -25, so "No". (-1,-1) -25^(-1) + 1 = 1/(-25^1) + 1 = 1/-25 + 1 = 24/25. And 24/25 is not equal to -1, so also "No".</span>
