Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of first n terms of an arithmetic progression is given by:

$S(n)=\dfrac{n}{2}\times (A1+An)$

10+25+40+...+85

Since, the terms have a common difference of 15

So, it is an arithmetic progression of n=6 terms with first term A1=10

and A6=85

We have to find S(6)

$S(6)=\dfrac{6}{2}\times (10+85)$

= 285

Hence, the sum of the terms of the series 10 + 25 + 40 + . . . + 85 is:

285

ace bike rentals rents bikes for $28 per day. Renters can keep the bike for 8 hours. Bart's bikes rents bikes for $30 per day. R

Bart company charges a lower rate. It is lower by rate $ 0.5 per hour

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Given that Ace bike rentals rents bikes for $28 per day. Renters can keep the bike for 8 hours

Also given that Bart's bikes rents bikes for $30 per day. Renters can keep the bike for 10 hours

To find: company that charges lower rate

Let us find the hourly rate of Ace and Bart

$\text {hourly rate }=\frac{\text { Rental price }}{\text { total time in a day }}$

Hourly rate of Ace company:

Rental price = $28

total time in a day 8 hours

$\text {hourly rate }=\frac{28}{8}=3.5$

So the hourly rate of Ace company is $ 3.5 per hour

Hourly rate of Bart company:

Rental price = $ 30

total time in a day 10 hours

$\text {hourly rate }=\frac{30}{10}=3$

So the hourly rate of Bart company is $ 3 per hour

Comparing hourly rate of both companies

Ace company is $ 3.5 per hour

Bart company is $ 3 per hour

Bart company < Ace company

3 < 3.5

Thus bart company charges a lower rate

<h3>How much lower?</h3>

hourly rate of Ace company - hourly rate of Bart company = 3.5 - 3 = 0.5

So, it is lower by rate $0.5 per hour

The set of ordered pairs represents a

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The rule that represents the function is $y=x^2+1$ therefore the function is $f(x)=x^2+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 5 ordered pairs in the plane xy. This means that every pair has the form (x, y).

Then, we have 5 values of x, which will give us 5 values of y, using the rule that represents the function.

The easy evaluation is that when x=0, the value of y is y=1, and then we can evaluate the rule for x=-1, and x=1, the value of y is the same, y=2. We can see here that we have a parabolic function, that is not centered in the origin of coordinates because when x=0, y=1.

So we propose the rule $y=x^2+1$ which is correct for the first 3 values of x.

Now, we evaluate the proposed rule when x=2, and when x=3. This evaluations can be written as

$f(2)=2^2+1=5$
