When x=0 in the equation (no delivered papers), y = 0 + 18 = 18.

The cost (in dollars) of making b bracelets is represented by 4 5b. The cost (in dollars) of making b necklaces is represented b
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

$(3b+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of making b bracelets = 4+5b

The cost  of making b necklaces = 8b+6.

To determine how much more it cost to make b necklaces than b bracelets, we simply subtract.

Extra Cost = Cost of b Necklaces-Cost of b Bracelets

=(8b+6)-(4+5b)

open the brackets

=8b+6-4-5b

Collect like terms

=8b-5b+6-4

=3b+2

It costs $(3b+2) more to make b necklaces than b bracelets.

Which function has a greater rate of change? Function A: x 1.5 2.5 3.5 4.5 5.5 y 5 0 –5 –10 –15 Function B: y = –4.5x + 15 Funct
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Function A has a rate of change of -5 and Function B has a rate of change of -4.5, so Function B has a greater rate of

Step-by-step explanation:

Function A:

\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {1.5} & {2.5} & {3.5} & {4.5} & {5.5} \ \\ y & {5} & {0} & {-5} & {-10} & {-15} \ \end{array}

Function B:

y = -4.5x + 15

Required

Which has a greater rate of change

The rate of change of function A is calculated as thus:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Where:

(x_1,y_1) = (1.5,5)

(x_2,y_2) = (2.5,0)

So, we have:

m = \frac{0-5}{2.5 - 1.5}

m = \frac{-5}{1}

m = -5

For function B

The general function is:

y = mx + b

Where

m is the rate of change

By comparing y = mx + b to y = -4.5x + 15

m = -4.5

So, we have that:

Function A has a rate of -5; function B has a rate of -4.5.

By comparison: -4.5 is greater than 5

Hence, function B has a greater rate.

Production managers on an assembly line must monitor the output to be sure that the level of defective products remains small. T
Elanso [62]

Answer:

(a) Type I error in our context is that our test indicates that the proportion of defective products has increased after inspecting but in actual the proportion of defective products was small.

(b) Type II error in our context is that our test indicates that the proportion of defective products has remained small after inspecting but in actual the proportion of defective products was increased.

(c) Factory owner would consider Type 1 error more serious.

(d) Customers will consider Type II error more serious.

Step-by-step explanation:

     Let  H_0 = Proportion of defective products remains small

            H_1 = Proportion of defective products increases

(a) Type I error represents that we have rejected our null hypothesis given the fact that null hypothesis is True.

Interpretation of this Type I error in our context is that our test indicates that the proportion of defective products has increased after inspecting but in actual the proportion of defective products was small.

(b) Type II error represents that we have accepted our null hypothesis given the fact that null hypothesis is False.

Interpretation of this Type II error in our context is that our test indicates that the proportion of defective products has remained small after inspecting but in actual the proportion of defective products was increased.

(c) Factory owner would consider Type 1 error more serious because after inspecting and testing he assumed that the proportion of defective products  has increased due to which he will halt the assembly process till the time the problem is identified and is repaired but in actual he should continue his  assembly process as in actual the proportion of defective products was small.

(d) Customers will consider Type II error more serious because after inspecting and testing factory owner assumed that the proportion of defective products is small and he will keeps on producing products and assembly process will keeps on going but in actual the proportion of defective products was increased and due to which customers will not get good quality products and they will not be able to purchase the products further.
