<em>Question:</em>

<em>Sal is trying to determine which cell phone and service plan to buy for his mother. The first phone costs $100 and $55 per month for unlimited usage. The second phone costs $150 and $51 per month for unlimited usage. </em>

<em>The inequality that will determine the number of months, x, that are required for the second phone to be less expensive is . </em>

<em>The solution to the inequality is . </em>

<em>Sal’s mother would have to keep the second cell phone plan for at least months in order for it to be less expensive.</em>

Answer:

a. 150 + 51x < 100 + 55x

b. x > 12.5

c. At least 13 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

First Phone;

Cost = \$100

Additional = \$55 <em>(monthly)</em>

Second Phone;

Cost = \$150

<em />Additional = \$51<em> (monthly)</em>

<em></em>

Solving (a): The inequality

<em></em>

Represent the number of months with x

The first phone is expressed as:

100 + 55x

The second phone is expressed as:

150 + 51x

For the second to be less expensive that the first, the inequality is:

150 + 51x < 100 + 55x

Solving (b): Inequality Solution

150 + 51x < 100 + 55x

Collect Like Terms

51x-55x

-4x

Solve for x

x > -50/-4

x > 12.5

Solving (c): Interpret the solution in (b)

x > 12.5 implies 13, 14, 15....

Hence, She'll keep the second phone for a period of at least 13 months

Given the points (3, 0) and (-1, -3), which of the statements below is true?
nalin [4]
Answer:
We know the x-intercept only

Explanation:
To answer this equation, we need to go through the options individually and use both points to determine if they are true or false.

• Option 1 - False
According to the the first point given, we know the x-intercept is (3, 0).

• Option 2 - True
We only know the x-intercept. It is (3, 0) which is the first point given. We do not know the y-intercept.

• Option 3 - False
We do not know the y-intercept. We only know the x-intercept. In order to know the y-intercept the second point given must include a zero as the x point. The second point give does not include a zero. It is (-1, -3).

• Option 4 - False
We do not know the y-intercept

Alyssa scored x goals during the soccer game yesterday. Today she scored 3 times as many goals. She scored a total of 4 goals du
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Alyssa had scored 3 goals today.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of goals scored yesterday = x

Total number of goals scored in 2 games = 4

We need to find the number of goals scored today.

Solution:

Now Given:

Today she scored 3 times as many goals than yesterday.

So we can say that;

Number of goals scored today = 3x

Now we know that;

Total number of goals scored in 2 games is the sum of Number of goals scored yesterday and Number of goals scored today.

framing in equation form we get;

x+3x=4\\\\4x=4

Dividing both side by 4 we get;

\frac{4x}{4} =\frac{4}{4}\\\\x=1

Number of goals scored yesterday = 1

Number of goals scored today = 3x = 3\times1 =3

Hence Alyssa had scored 3 goals today.

A vending machine operator has determined that the number of candy bars sold per week by a certain machine is a random variable
docker41 [41]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Y represent the profit per day, and x represent the number of bar sold per day. Hence:

Y = 0.25x - 2

a) The mean is given as:

\mu_y=E(Y)=E(0.25X-2) = 0.25E(X)-2\\\\But\ E(X)=mean\ of\ machine=125. Hence:\\\\E(Y)=0.25(125)-2=29.25\\\\E(Y)=\$29.25

b) The standard deviation of y is:

\sigma_y=var(0.25X-2)\\\\\sigma_y=0.25\sigma(X)\\\\but\ \sigma_X=7,hence:\\\\\sigma_y=0.25(7)=1.75\\\\\sigma_y=\$1.75
