Answer: a) An = An-1 + An-2
b) 55ways
Step-by-step explanation:
a) a nickel is 5 cents and a dime is 10cent so a multiple of 5 cents is the possible way to pay the tolls in both choices.
Let An represents the number of possible ways the driver can pay a toll of 5n cents, so that
An = 5n cents
Case 1: Using a nickel for payment which is 5 cents, the number of ways given as;
An-1 = 5( n-1)
Case 2: using a dime which is two 5 cents, the number of ways is given as;
An-2 = 5(n-2)
Summing up the number of ways, we have
An = An-1 + An-2
From the relation,
If n= 0, Ao= 1
n =1, A1= 1
b) 45 cents paid in multiples of 5cents will give us 9 ways(A9)
From the relation, we have that
Ao = 1
A1 = 1
An =An-1 + An-2
Ao = 1
A1 = 1
A2 = A1+Ao = 1+1= 2
A3 = A2 + A1 = 3
A4 = A3+A2=5
A5=A4+A3=8
A6=A5+A4=13
A7 =A6+A5 = 21
A8= A7+A6= 34
A9= A8+A7= 55
So there are 55ways to pay 45cents.
Answer:
6x * 1/2 - 3 (* means multiplying)
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, you are using communitive property and so you are just changing the problem to an equal situation.
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: We are using a line regression tool to solve the parameters asked in the problem. We can use online tools or that of Excel. According to the tool, the best fit values are
Slope0.3848 ± 0.03956
Y-intercept0.6053 ± 0.6370
X-intercept-1.573
1/Slope2.598
Step-by-step explanation: Best fit lines make sure that the standard deviation at each point is minimum from the best fit line.
The standard form: ax + by = c
and your equation is: -2x + 3y = - 5 (Yes this is written in standard form)
