Answer: Part a: b represents the base fee charged for the "house call" job

m is the hourly rate.

x is the number of hours at the job.

y represents the total cost for the job.

Part b:. The y-intercept is 65

The equation follows y=mx+b

Y= 42x + 65

Part c:. $275

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the two total costs, (Camilla 191 - Connor 107)

= $84. That is the rise. The run is the difference in time, 2 hours. 84/2 = 42.

m= 42

42 from 107 to find b, the base fee, 65 This is the y-intercept.

The equation is y= 42x + 65

Quick check using Camilla's bill: 191 = (42)(3) + 65

191 = 126 + 65 True!

Part C:

To find the total cost of the plumber's 5 hour job,

Y = 42(5) + 65

Y= 210 + 65

Y= $275

Use a t-distribution to answer this question. Assume the samples are random samples from distributions that are reasonably norma
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The degrees of freedom is 11.

The proportion in a t-distribution less than -1.4 is 0.095.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Use a t-distribution to answer this question. Assume the samples are random samples from distributions that are reasonably normally distributed, and that a t-statistic will be used for inference about the difference in sample means. State the degrees of freedom used. Find the proportion in a t-distribution less than -1.4  if the samples have sizes 1 = 12 and n 2 = 12 . Enter the exact answer for the degrees of freedom and round your answer for the area to three decimal places. degrees of freedom = Enter your answer; degrees of freedom proportion = Enter your answer; proportion

Solution:

The information provided is:

n_{1}=n_{2}=12\\t-stat=-1.4

Compute the degrees of freedom as follows:

\text{df}=\text{Min}.(n_{1}-1,\ n_{2}-1)

   =\text{Min}.(12-1,\ 12-1)\\\\=\text{Min}.(11,\ 11)\\\\=11

Thus, the degrees of freedom is 11.

Compute the proportion in a t-distribution less than -1.4 as follows:

P(t_{df}

                      =P(t_{11}>1.4)\\\\=0.095

*Use a <em>t</em>-table.

Thus, the proportion in a t-distribution less than -1.4 is 0.095.

A movie theater has been charging $10.00 per person and selling about 500 tickets on a typical weeknight. After surveying their
kifflom [539]

Answer:

p(x) = -0.01x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let x represent the number of tickets, and p the charges

(x_1,p_1) = (500,10)

A reduction of 50c gives an increment of 50 tickets.

This gives:

(x_2,p_2) = (500+50,10-0,5) ---- 50c = \$0.5

(x_2,p_2) = (550,9.5)

Required

Determine the demand function

First, calculate the slope:

m = \frac{p_2 - p_1}{x_2 - x_1}

m = \frac{9.5 - 10}{550-500}

m = \frac{-0.5}{50}

m = -0.01

So, the equation is:

p = m(x - x_1) + y_1

p = -0.01(x - 500) +10

p = -0.01x + 5 +10

p = -0.01x + 15

Hence, the function is:

p(x) = -0.01x + 15

Answer: - (27/40)

Step-by-step explanation:

-(3/8) / (5/9) is the same as -(3/8) × (9/5)

-((3×9) / (8×5))

-(27/40)
