Answer:

The range of weights in the scale allowed to report in order to be compliant with local inspection agency regulations is between 14.925 pounds and 15.075 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weights should be within 0.5% of the actual weight measured.

15.0 pounds

0.005*15 = 0.075

Tolerance of 0.075 pounds

15 - 0.075 = 14.925 pounds

15 + 0.075 = 15.075 pounds

The range of weights in the scale allowed to report in order to be compliant with local inspection agency regulations is between 14.925 pounds and 15.075 pounds.

A certain economy's consumption function is given by the equation C(x) = 0.65x + 9 where C(x) is the personal consumption expend
ipn [44]

Answer:

1) C(0) = 9

2) C(50) =41.5

3) C(100) =74

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A certain economy's consumption function is given by the equation C(x) = 0.65x + 9

where, C(x) is the personal consumption expenditure in billions of dollars, and x is the disposable personal income in billions of dollars.

To find :

1) C(0)

Put x=0 in the given equation,

C(0) = 0.65(0)+ 9

C(0) = 9

2) C(50)

Put x=50 in the given equation,

C(50) = 0.65(50)+ 9

C(50) =32.5+9

C(50) =41.5

3) C(100)

Put x=100 in the given equation,

C(100) = 0.65(100)+ 9

C(100) =65+9

C(100) =74

If the endpoints of ST are S (1,4) and T (5,2) then the midpoint is in Quadrant IV?
irina [24]

It is false that the midpoint is in quadrant IV

<h3>How to determine the midpoint location?</h3>

The endpoints are given as:

S (1,4) and T (5,2

The midpoint is

(x, y) = 0.5 *(x1 + x2, y1 + y2)

So, we have:

(x, y) = 0.5 *(1 + 5, 4 + 2)

Evaluate the expression

(x, y) = (3, 3)

The point (3, 3) is located in the first quadrant

Hence, it is false that the midpoint is in quadrant IV
