The table shows the relationship between the cost of renting a car from the Wrecko Car Rental Company and the number of days for

the rental. Draw a scatter plot and find an equation for the line of best fit. Use the equation to determine the cost of renting a car for 20 days. Days Cost 1 $44 2 $67 3 $90 4 $113 7 $182 10 $251

Answer:

The cost of renting the car for 20 days is $481

Step-by-step explanation:

The table of values can be formed as follows;

Day,   Cost

1,         $44

2,        $67

3,        $90

4,        $113

7,        $182

10,      $251

From the given values and the scatter plot, there is a straight line relationship between the cost and the number of days of rental of a car.

The line of best fit is therefore a straight line and from the constant increase in cost ($23) for each extra day of rental, it is possible to find the slope, m, of the data as follows;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

(x₁, y,) and (x₂, y₂) can be taken as (1, $44) and (3, $90) respectively to give;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{90-44}{3-1} = \dfrac{46}{2} = 23 \ as \ stated \ above

The equation in slope and intercept form is therefore, y  - 44 = 23×(x - 1), which gives;

y - 44 = 23·x - 23

y = 23·x - 23 + 44 = 23·x + 21

The cost of renting the car for 20 days is then;

10×23 + 21 = $481

The cost of renting the car for 20 days = $481.

7) In Problem 6 we poured a large and a small bowl of cereal from a box. Suppose the amount of cereal that the manufacturer puts
olga_2 [115]

Question:

The amount of cereal that can be poured into a small bowl varies with a mean of 1.5 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.3 ounces. A large bowl holds a mean of 2.5 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.4 ounces. You open a new box of cereal and pour one large and one small bowl.

Answer:

a) The expected amount of cereal left in the box is 12.2 ounces

b) The standard deviation  \sigma_{x+y+z}, is 0.5099

c) In a Normal model, the probability that the box still contains more than 13 ounces is P(Z-(X+Y) > 13) = 5.821 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X represent the amount of cereal that can be poured into a small bowl and Y represent the amount of cereal that can be poured into a large bowl and Z represent the amount of cereal that the manufacturer puts in the box, then the expected amount of cereal left in the box is given by

Z - (X + Y)

(a) The expected amount of cereal left in the box is given as

P(Z - (X + Y)) = μ = μ_Z - μ_X - μ_Y = 16.2 - 1.5 - 2.5 = 12.2 ounces

The expected amount of cereal left in the box = 12.2 ounces

b) The standard deviation is given by  the root of the sum of the variance

That is

\sigma_{x+y+z} ^2 = \sigma_x^2 + \sigma_y^2 +\sigma_z^2 and

\sqrt{\sigma_{x+y+z} ^2}  = \sqrt{\sigma_x^2 + \sigma_y^2 +\sigma_z^2} =\sqrt{0.1^2+0.4^2+0.3^2} = 0.5099

The standard deviation,  \sigma_{x+y+z}, = 0.5099

c) The probability that the box still contains more than 13 ounces is given by

P(Z-(X+Y) > 13)

Where z-score is  

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} = \frac{13-12.2}{0.5099}=  1.5689 ≈ 1.57

From the z-score table P(Z = 1.57) = 0.94179

Therefore the probability of the box containing ≤ 13 is 0.94179, that is

P(Z-(X+Y) ≤ 13) = 0.94179 and

P(Z-(X+Y) > 13) = 1 - 0.94179 = 0.05821 = 5.821 %.

Which quantity is proportional to 12⁄48?
Finger [1]

Answer:

we know that

16/4-----------> 8/2---------> 4/1

so

case 1) 

64/16--------> 32/8-----> 16/4------> 8/2------> 4/1

the quantity (64/16) is proportional to 16/4

case 2)

6/1 is not 4/1

so

the quantity (6/1) is not proportional to 16/4

case 3)

5/1 is not 4/1

so

the quantity (5/1) is not proportional to 16/4

case 4)

48*12--------> 24/6-----> 12/3------> 4/1

the quantity (48/12) is proportional to 16/4

case 5)

4/1 is equal to 4/1

so

the quantity (4/1) is proportional to 16/4
