A science class is tracking the progress of plant growth. The class starts the experiment with a plant five centimeters high. Th

e plant grows two centimeters each day. The model for plant growth "y" is given by: y = 2x + 5. What is the meaning of the y-intercept in this equation?
A) the y-intercept is the starting date
B) the y-intercept is two times larger than five
C) the y-intercept is the starting height of the plant
D) the y-intercept is the largest height the plant can grow

Let $ 500 be paid at the end of each quarter for 5 years. If the interest is earned rate of 13%, compounded quarterly, find the
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Future value of annuity (FV) = $13,782.12 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Periodic payment p = $500

Interest rate r = 13% = 13%/4 = 0.0325 (Quarterly)

Number of period n = 5 x 4 = 20 quarter

Find:

Future value of annuity (FV)

Computation:

Future\ value\ of\ annuity\ (FV)=p[\frac{(1+r)^n-1}{r} ] \\\\Future\ value\ of\ annuity\ (FV)=500[\frac{(1+0.0325)^{20}-1}{0.0325} ] \\\\Future\ value\ of\ annuity\ (FV)=13,782.1219 \\\\

Future value of annuity (FV) = $13,782.12 (Approx)

Given n = 875 and pˆ = 0.45, find the margin of error E that corresponds to a 95% confidence level.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The margin of error E that corresponds to a 95% confidence level is: E=0.03297

Step-by-step explanation:

The propocion is p = 0.45

The sample size n = 875

95% confidence level

Level of significance = 1-level of confidence

Level of significance = 1-0.95 = 0.05

The formula for the error is:

E = Z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

The value for Z_{0.05/2} =Z_{0.0250}= 1.96 according to the normal table

So:

E = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{875}}\\\\SE=0.03297

8. If Q is the midpoint of PR, find the value of x.<br> 7x - 16<br> 4x + 2
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The value of x is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Point Q is the mid-point of the segment PR

∵ Q is the mid-point of segment PR

∴ Q divided the segment PR into two equal parts

- When point Q divided the segment PR into two equal parts,

 then the two parts are PQ and QR

∴ PQ = QR

∵ PQ and QR are 7x - 16 and 4x + 2

∴ 7x - 16 = 4x + 2

- Subtract 4x from both sides

∴ 7x - 4x - 16 = 2

∴ 3x - 16 = 2

- Add 16 to both sides

∴ 3x = 2 + 16

∴ 3x = 18

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ x = 6

∴ The value of x is 6
