The owner of a grocery store finds she can sell about 982 gallons of milk in a week if she prices it at $2.99 per gallon. If she

drops the per-gallon price to $2.79, her weekly sales increase to about 1,204 gallons. Assuming a constant rate of change.
a. Find a model that gives weekly milk sales, in gallons, as a function of the per-gallon dollar price.
b. Predict this store owner's weekly milk sales if she sets the per-gallon price to $3.15. Only enter the number, in gallons, rounded to nearest integer.

Answer:

  • g = -1110p +4300.9
  • 804 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Price is the independent variable, so the data we are given can be written as ...

  (price, gallons) = (2.99, 982) and (2.79, 1204)

Using the 2-point form of the equation for a line, we have ...

  g = (g2 -g1)/(p2 -p1)(p -p1) +g1

  g = (1204 -982)/(2.79 -2.99)(p -2.99) +982

  g = -1110(p -2.99) +982 = -1110p +4300.9

  g = -1110p +4300.9

__

b) When p = 3.15, the predicted sales volume is ...

  g = -1110(3.15) +4300.9 = 804.4

Weekly sales are predicted to be 804 gallons at a price of $3.15.

An instructor wants to write a test with 25 questions where each question is worth 3, 4, or 5 points based on difficulty. He wan
irakobra [83]

ANSWER

Find out the how many 3, 4, and 5 point questions could there be.

To proof

Let us assume that the 3 points based question be = x

Let us assume that the 4 points based question be = y

Let us assume that the 5 points based question be = z

As given

An instructor wants to write a test with 25 questions

than the equation become in the form

x + y + z = 25

he quiz to be worth a total of 100 points.

than the equation is becomes

3x + 4y + 5z =100

As given

He wants the number of 3-point questions to be 4 less than the number of 4-point questions

x = y -4

Than the three equation are

x + y + z = 25 ,3x + 4y + 5z =100 and x = y -4

put  x = y -4 in the x + y + z = 25 ,3x + 4y + 5z =100

than

2y + z = 29, 7y +5z= 112

multiply 2y + z = 29 by 5 and subtracted 7y +5z= 112

10 y -7y + 5y -5y = 145 -112

3y = 33

y = \frac{33}{3}

y =11

put in the  x = y -4

x = 11-4

x= 7

put the value of x ,y in the x + y + z = 25

7 + 11 +z =25

18 +z = 25

z = 25 -18

z=7

therefore

numbers of the 3 point question be = 7

numbers of the 4 point question be = 11

numbers of the 5 point question be = 7

Hence proved

A particular type of mold is growing 9.7% per hour. Assuming that mold growth continues at this rate and there were 14,000 spore
nydimaria [60]

Total mold spores at end of 9.30 am is 26901.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of molds = 14000

Rate = 9.7% per hour

Number of hours = 12 am to 9.30 am =  9\frac{1}{2} hours

Growth of mold = 14000 * 9.7% * 9\frac{1}{2}

                            = 12901

Total mold spores at end of 9.30 am = 14000 + 12901

                                                                = 26901

Hence, the expected number of mold spores at 9.30 am is 26901.
