Y varies with x² times a constant. We will call the constant a
144=ax²
144 = a(4²)
144 = 16a
a = 9
Apply our equation y = 9x²
y = 9(-5)²
y = 9* 25
y=225
Answer is B

A car salesman receives a base weekly salary of $150 plus a commission of $325 per car sold. What is the equation that models th

Temka [501]

Given :

Weekly salary , S = $150.

Commission per car , C = $325.

To Find :

The the equation that models the weekly salary of a car salesman.

Solution :

We know it is a quadratic equation :

Let , the equation is , y = mx + c

Here, x is number of car sold in a week.

For x = 0 ( He will not get commission)

So , Salary is $150 = c .

For x = 1

Salary is $( 150 + 325 ) = $475 = m(1) + c

Therefore , m = $325 and c = $150.

Required linear equation is y = 325x + 150.

Hence, this is the required solution.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ = 1,100 square feet

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ < 1,100 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the mean area of several thousand apartments in a new development is advertised to be 1,100 square feet.

A consumer advocate has received numerous complaints that the apartments are smaller than advertised.

Let $\mu$ = mean area of several apartments.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ = 1,100 square feet

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ < 1,100 square feet

Here, null hypothesis states that the mean area of apartments are same as advertised.

On the other hand, alternate hypothesis states that the mean area of apartments are smaller than advertised.

So, this would be the appropriate null and the alternative hypothesis to test this claim.
