A party planner estimates a party will cost $200 plus $8 for each person attending. What is the y-intercept of the graph of the

linear function representing the total cost of the party?

Answer:

The y intercept is 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base Cost = 200

Per person =8

Required

Determine the y intercept

First, we need to determine the equation.

The total amount (y) for x persons can be calculated using:

y = Base Cost + Amount per person * x.

This gives

y = 200 + 8 * x

y = 200 + 8x

The general expression of a linear equation is:

y = mx + b

Where b = y intercept

By comparison,

b = 200

Hence, the y intercept is 200

Which relationship would most likely have a positive correlation?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The only thing to do here is just check all of the answers.

A makes no sense, as the number of keys on a keyboard doesn't affect the amount of memory in a computer at all (no correlation).

B makes a bit more sense, but it's still wrong. If a train travels faster, it gets places quicker, or the time goes down. If (If one goes up, the other goes down) is true, then you have negative correlation.

C makes the most sense, as if there's more people at a game, then those more people will probably buy more hot dogs. If (If one goes up, so does the other) is true, then you have positive correlation, which is what we want.

Write an exponential function y = ab" whose graph passes through (2,12) and (5,96).
motikmotik

Answer:

y = 3(2)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the given points into the function and solve for a and b

Using (2, 12)

12 = ab² → (1)

Using (5, 96)

96 = ab^{5} → (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

\frac{ab^5}{ab^2} = \frac{96}{12} , that is

b³ = 8 ( take the cube root of both sides )

b = \sqrt[3]{8} = 2

Substitute b = 2 into (1) and solve for a

12 = a2² = 4a ( divide both sides by 4 )

3 = a

Thus

y = 3(2)^{x} ← is the exponential function

What is the recursive formula for this geometric sequence?<br> -2, -16, -128, -1024,
FinnZ [79.3K]
<h3>Answer: Choice A</h3>

The first line shown in choice A is a_1 = -2 which means "the first term is -2"

The next line in choice A means "the nth term (a_n) is found by multiplying the prior term (a_{n-1}) by 8". Put another way: multiply each term by 8 to get the next term.

first term = -2

second term = 8*(first term) = 8*(-2) = -16

third term = 8*(second term) = 8*(-16) = -128

fourth term = 8*(third term) = 8*(-128) = -1024

and so on.
