Answer:

The linear cost function is C(x)=1.3x+4 dollar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A parking garage charges 4 dollars plus 65 cents per half-hour. A linear cost function for the situation is C(x)=L.

To find : Write a linear cost function for the situation ?

Solution :

Cost function is defined as sum of marginal cost and fixed cost.

Let x be the number of hours i.e. time for which parking cost.

A parking garage charges 4 dollars plus 65 cents per half-hour.

The fixed price is $4.

Marginal cost is 65 cents per half-hour.

Converting cents into dollar,

1 cent = 0.01 dollar

65 cent = 0.65 dollar

The cost of \frac{1}{2} hour = $0.65

The cost of x hours = 0.65\times 2x

So, marginal cost is $1.3x.

Cost function is defined as

C(x)=MC+FC

C(x)=1.3x+4

C(x)=1.3x+4 dollar.

Therefore, The linear cost function is C(x)=1.3x+4 dollar where x is the number of hours.

For a specific species of fish in a pond, a wildlife biologist wants to build a regression equation to predict the weight of a f
sashaice [31]

Answer: First of all, we will add the options.

A. Yes, because 3 inches falls above the maximum value of lengths in the sample.

B. Yes, because the regression equation is based on a random sample.

C. Yes, because the association between length and weight is positive.

D. No, because 3 inches falls above the maximum value of lengths in the sample.

E. No, because there may not be any 3-inch fish of this species in the pond.

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation: It would not be appropriate to use the model to predict the weight of species that is 3 inches long because 3 inches falls above the maximum value of lengths in the sample.

As we can see from the question, the model only accounts for species that are within the range of 0.75 to 1.35 inches in length, and species smaller or larger than that length have not been taken into consideration. Therefore the model can not be used to predict the weights of fishes not with the range accounted for.

Ella conducted a survey to find out the amount of time high schoolers spend surfing the Internet. From the data collected, the r
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

the answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is C.

Because we do not have any tables graphs etc., we can only use the fact that the range is 1

The definition of range is the difference between the largest amount and the smallest amount. In equation form, it should look like this:  

Now lets move to the answer choices:

Answer A. is wrong

If everyone surfed for exactly an hour, the largest amount of time would be 1 hour and the smallest amount of time would also be 1 hour. Put this into the equation and the range would be 0 which is contradicted from the data present

Answer B. is wrong because the range is not the average, the mean is the average. We are looking for the range, not the mean so Answer B. is incorrect.

Answer C. is correct. The range is the difference between the largest and the smallest. In this answer, it tells us that the range is the difference between the greatest amount of time and the least amount of time spent surfing the Internet is 1 hour. This follows the term of "Range" and therefore, Answer C. is correct.

Answer D. is incorrect because the range does not have anything to do with quotients.(By the way, a quotient is the result of dividing a dividend with a divisor.) The range is only obtainable with subtraction, not division, so answer D. is incorrect.

Need help with option 1 or 2
Pani-rosa [81]

Option 2.

1. Simplify 7 + (12 - 9) + 7 × 3(8 - 5)

According to the Order of Operations, contents of parentheses are evaluated first. This gives

... 7 + 3 + 7 × 3 × 3

Then multiplication and division are performed left to right.

... = 7 + 3 + 21 × 3

... = 7 + 3 + 63

Followed by addition and subtraction left to right.

... = 10 + 63

... = 73

A Google search box can be relied upon to do the operations in the correct order.

_____

2. When the expression is rewritten, a different result is obtained. This is because the operations indicated by the second set of parentheses are altered.

... (7 + 12) - 9 + (7 × 3)8 - 5

... = 19 - 9 + 21 × 8 - 5

... = 19 - 9 + 168 - 5

... = 10 + 168 - 5

... = 178 - 5

... = 173

In the first expression, both +8 and -5 are multiplied by 21. In the rewritten expression, only +8 is multiplied by 21.
