Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A dependent variable in an expression is one whose value can be determined only when the value of other variable (i.e independent) is known.
A. The cost at the fitness center depends on the number of months (x).
The cost is the dependent variable, and number of months (x) is the independent variable.
f(x) = 100 + 40x
Example, the cost paid for 12 months can be determined as;
f(12) = 100 + 40(12)
= 100 + 480
= 580
Thus, $580 would be paid for 12 months at the fitness center.
B. The lettuce is sold at $1.69 per pound. The cost depends on the number of pounds of lettuce bought.
The cost is the dependent variable, while the number of pounds of lettuce (x) bought is the independent variable.
So that;
f(x) = 1.69x
The cost of 10 pounds of lettuce can be determined as;
f(x) = 1.69(10)
= 16.9
Thus, the cost of 10 lb of lettuce is $16.90.

Step-by-step explanation:
$15 + .5($10), or $20 total.
Since the books normally cost $25 total normally, Joseph paid $20/$25%, or 80% of both books (saving 20%)

Answer:
a) -$3.03; b) The $5 on the number 25
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the expected value, multiply each probability by its value and then add them together.
The probability of making a profit of $20 is 3/38; this gives us
3/38(20) = 60/38
The probability of losing $5 is 35/38; this gives us
35/38(-5) = -175/38
Together, this gives us
60/38-175/38 = -115/38 ≈ $-3.03
b) Since the expected value for the $5 bet on a single number is $-0.53, and the expected value for the $5 on either 00, 0 or 1 is $-3.03, the better bet is on the number 25. The expected value loses less money with this option.
