Answer:
1.) 500 pages
2.) $125
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the printer cost $100. To operate at home will cost
100 + 0.05P
To print out pages at an office store, it will cost 0.25P
1.) For the costs to be the same, then
100 + 0.05P = 0.25P
0.25P - 0.05P = 100
0.20P = 100
P = 100/0.2
P = 500 pages
500 pages need to be printed
2.) How much does it cost to print that many pages?
Cost = 0.25P
= 0.25 × 500
= 125 dollars
Geometric sequence general form: a * r^n
For Greg, we are given the elimination of the medicine as a geometric nth term equation:
200 * (0.88)^t
The amount of medicine starts at 200 mg and every hour, decreases by 12%;
To compare the decrease in medicine in the body between the two, it is useful to get them in a common form;
So, using the data provided for Henry, we will also attempt to find a geometric nth term equation that will work if we can:
As a geometric sequence, the first term would be a and the second term would be ar where r = multiplier;
If we divide the second term by the first term, we will therefore get r, which is 0.94 for Henry;
We can check that the data for Henry can be represented as a geometric sequence by using the multiplier (r) to see if we can generate the third value of the data;
We do this like so:
282 * (0.94)^2 = 249.18 (correct to 2 d.p)
We can tell that the data for Henry is also a geometric sequence.
So now, we just look at the multiplier for Henry and we find that every hour, the medicine decreases by 6%, half of the rate of decrease for Greg.
The answer is therefore that <span>Henry's body eliminated the antibiotic at half of the rate at which Greg's body eliminated the antibiotic.</span>
The answer is A:
Because the only difference between the rest of the answer choices are the lower and upper quartiles, that is all you need to find. In order to do so you find the median for the first half (lower quartile) and then find the median for the second half. In this case it is 29 (Q1) and 58 (Q2)
Answer:
The score of the dropped grade is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the average of a set of numbers you need to add all the numbers and divide by how many numbers there are. The problem wants you to solve it in reverse. Let put this into an algebraic equation with a, b, c, d, and e being the variables of the test scores
(a+b+c+d+e)/5=10
Then we can multiply both sides by 5 and get
a+b+c+d+e=50
Lets assume that c is the lowest test score. To calculate the average of that we get
a+b+d+e/4=11
Doing the same thing, we know that a+b+d+e=44
Now compare the two:
a+b+c+d+e=50
a+b+d+e=44
We can now know that c=50-44=6
So, 6 is the score of the dropped quiz. Hope that helped!
