Two companies, A and B, drill wells in a rural area. Company A charges a flat fee of 3681 dollars to drill a well regardless of

its depth. Company B charges 1168 dollars plus 10 dollars per foot to drill a well. The depths of wells drilled in this area have a normal distribution with a mean of 260 feet and a standard deviation of 40 feet. Find the probability that Company B would charge more than Company A to drill a well.

Answer:

Mean costing =  $3,768

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean A(x) = 260

Rate = $10 per feet

Fixed charge = $1,168

Computation:

Assume;

depth = x ft

So,

Cost of company B = 10x + 1,168

So,

Mean costing = 10A(x) + 1,168

Mean costing =  10(260) + 1,168

Mean costing =  2,600 + 1,168

Mean costing =  $3,768

To determine whether the inverse of a function is a function you can perform the horizontal line test.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{TRUE}}

Step-by-step explanation:

If a horizontal line intersects the graph of a function in all places at exactly one point (the horizontal line test), the inverse of the function is also a function.

For example, the inverse of a hyperbola (like ƒ(x) =1/x) is a function, because every horizontal line intersects with the graph at exactly one point.

However, the inverse of a parabola (like ƒ(x) = x²) is not a function, because a horizontal line intersects with the graph at two points.

Sam drinks water at an incredible rate. She drinks 2 1/5 liters of water every 3/4 of an hour. Sam drinks water at a constant ra
lora16 [44]

Answer:

2.9 litres

or

2 14/15 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the amount of water Sam drinks in an hour, divide the total amount drunk by the number of hours

Amount drank in an hour = total litres drunk / time

2\frac{1}{5} ÷ \frac{3}{4}

\frac{11}{5} × \frac{4}{3} = \frac{44}{15} = 2\frac{14}{15} litres
