Answer: the tuition in 2020 is $502300

Step-by-step explanation:

The annual tuition at a specific college was $20,500 in 2000, and $45,4120 in 2018. Let us assume that the rate of increase is linear. Therefore, the fees in increasing in an arithmetic progression.

The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the information given,

a = $20500

The fee in 2018 is the 19th term of the sequence. Therefore,

T19 = $45,4120

n = 19

Therefore,

454120 = 20500 + (19 - 1) d

454120 - 20500 = 19d

18d = 433620

d = 24090

Therefore, an

equation that can be used to find the tuition y for x years after 2000 is

y = 20500 + 24090(x - 1)

Therefore, at 2020,

n = 21

y = 20500 + 24090(21 - 1)

y = 20500 + 481800

y = $502300

Alex787 [66]

Hi

<u>The area of a triangle is </u>

\cfrac{base*height}{2}

If we plug in the given values, we get:

\frac{10*7}{2}

Multiply in the numerator:

\frac{70}{2}

Divide:

35

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 35 inches squared.

Choose the equation that represents the graph below: (1 point) Graph of a line passing through points 0 comma 6 and 9 comma 0 y
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Equation of a line y=\frac{-2}{3}x+6 passing through (0,6) and (9,0).

Explanation:

Given the two points (0, 6) and (9 ,0).

To find the equation for the given two points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}) is,

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1}); where m is the slope and is given by:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

First find the slope m:

m=\frac{0-6}{9-0} =\frac{-6}{9} =\frac{-2}{3}

Substitute this value in equation of line:

y-6=\frac{-2}{3} (x-0) or

y-6=\frac{-2}{3} x

⇒ y=\frac{-2}{3}x+6

Therefore, the equation for the given point is:  y=\frac{-2}{3}x+6

I really need the help with this multiple choice question for geometry.
prisoha [69]

Answer:

  A.  50°

Step-by-step explanation:

The external angle ACB created by tangents CA and CB is the supplement of arc AB it intercepts.

  ∠ACB = 180° -AB

  ∠ACB = 180° -130°

  ∠ACB = 50°

Let fat be the explanatory variable and calories be the response variable; which scenario best describes ŷ = 121 + 1.42x?
emmasim [6.3K]

Using <u>linear function concepts</u>, it is found that the correct option is:

The amount of calories in a cheeseburger increases by 1.42 for every one gram of fat. The calorie amount estimated by this model is 121 if there are zero grams of fat.

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which represents by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

In this problem:

  • The explanatory variable fat is the input.
  • The response variable calories is the output.

The equation is:

y = 121 + 1.42x

  • The slope is of 1.42, which means that the amount of calories increases by 1.42 when the amount of fat increases by 1 gram.
  • The y-intercept is of 121, which means that if there are 0 grams of fat, there will be 121 calories.

Thus, the correct option is:

The amount of calories in a cheeseburger increases by 1.42 for every one gram of fat. The calorie amount estimated by this model is 121 if there are zero grams of fat.
