Answer:

The correct option is;

C. Quadratic

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The quantity of corn Farmer Joe has to sell = 1,000 bushels

The present market price for corn = $5.00 a bushel

The amount by which he expects the market price to rise per week =$0.15

The number of bushels lost to spoilage per week = 10

Therefore, we have;

The value of the corn = Amount of corn left × Price of corn

The price of the corn per bushel with time = 5 + 0.15×t

The amount of corn left = 1000 - 10×t

Where;

t = Time in minutes

Therefore, the total value of corn = (1000 - 10×t)×(5 + 0.15×t) = -1.5·t²+100·t+5000 which is a quadratic model.

Therefore, the correct option is a quadratic model.

In a game of rolling a die. If the number showing is even, you win $3, if the number showing is 1 you win $3 and if the number s
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

(a)

\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c}---&---&---\\x&\$0&\$3\\---&---&---\\P(x)&\dfrac13&\dfrac23\\---&---&---\\\end{array}\right|

(b)$2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given game of rolling a die. these are the possible winnings.

  • If the number showing is even(2, 4, or 6) or 1, you win $3.
  • If the number showing is either 3 or 5 you win $0.

There are 6 sides in the die.

P($obtaining a 1,2,4 or 6)=\dfrac46=\dfrac23\\P($obtaining a 3 or 5)=\dfrac26=\dfrac13

(i)The probability distribution of x.

Let x be the amount won

Therefore:

Probability distribution of x.

\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c}---&---&---\\x&\$0&\$3\\---&---&---\\P(x)&\dfrac13&\dfrac23\\---&---&---\\\end{array}\right|

(ii) Expected amount of dollar won

Expected Amount

=\sum x_iP(x_i)\\=(0*\dfrac13)+(3*\dfrac23)\\=\$2\\

You would expect to win $2.

Z varies jointly with x and y. when x=2 and y=3, z=60. what is the value of z when x=4 and y=9?
laiz [17]
<span>Z $ xy then Z = Kxy. When x = 2 and y = 3, and Z = 60, our constant of variation becomes 60 = K * 2 * 3 K = 10. Our constant of proportionality equals 10. We would need that in the second part of the equation. When x = 4 and y = 9, we have Z = 10 * 4 * 9 = 360</span>

Answer:

22.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so the situation given shows a right triangle with the two sides being 7.6 and 18.2. So we can find the angle of elevation using tangent, which is tan-1*7.6/18.2. I got 22.66 so 22.7
