A researcher surveyed five randomly selected employees from each of four different companies about their daily commutes to work.

the table shows the commute times for the surveyed employees.
Amount of time of company 1: 24, 26, 28, 23, 21
Amount of time for company 2: 6, 32, 9, 31, 21
Amount of time for company 3: 15, 15, 15, 15, 15
Amount of time for company 4: 13, 10, 45, 12, 15
 based on the data, which company most likely has the longest average commute time per employee?

(Please help me, i don't understand what they're trying to say)

Its company 1. if you find the means of all of the company's, company 1 has the biggest mean which means they have the longest commute. So the answer is company 1

Answer:

Company 1 most likely has the longest average commute time per employee.  

Step-by-step explanation:

A researcher surveyed five randomly selected employees from each of four different companies about their daily commutes to work.

We have to find which company most likely has the longest average commute time per employee.

So we will find the mean of the given each company's data

Mean = Sum of total number /total number of values

For Company 1 :  \frac{24 + 26 + 28 + 23 + 21 }{5} = 24.4

For company 2 : \frac{6+32+9+31+21}{5} = 19.8          

For company 3 :  \frac{15+15+15+15+15}{5} = 15                      

For company 4 : \frac{13+10+45+12+15}{5} = 19    

As we can see Company 1 has largest mean.

So Company 1 most likely has the longest average commute time per employee.

The linear function graphed below represents Brenda’s monthly cell phone bill based on the number of hours she uses. What is her
grigory [225]

Answer:

$12 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find her hourly rate we have to find the amount of dollars billed per hour. To do this we can use this expression: \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

Let's use the points (1, 27) and (2, 39) in the expression:

\frac{39 - 27}{2 -1}

Now let's simplify the expression:

39 - 27 = 12

2 - 1 = 1

The expression simplifies to 12/1, or 12. This means that Brenda is billed $12 every hour she uses her phone.

I hope this helps :)

This function <br>Is it differentiable at x = 1​ ?
nikklg [1K]

It is not differentiable at x=1 since the slope of the tangent line as x -> 1 from the right is 1 while the slope of the tangent line as x->1 from the left is -1

A small airplane flies 1200 miles with an average speed of 300 miles per hour. 2 hours after the plane leaves, a Boeing 747 leav
inysia [295]

The small plane has the following parameters

Distance = 1200 miles

Speed = 300miles/hour

time = ?

\begin{gathered} \text{Speed =}\frac{dis\tan ce}{time} \\ time\text{= }\frac{1200}{300} \\ \text{time = 4 hours} \end{gathered}

If a Boeing 747 leaves 2 hours later, the total time becomes 4hours + 2 hours = 6 hours

Considering the distance of the small plane after 6 hours, we have

\begin{gathered} \text{distance = sp}eed\times\text{ time} \\ d\text{ = 300 }\times6 \\ d\text{ =1800 miles} \end{gathered}

So the total distance = 1800 miles

Hence the speed of the Boeing 747 will be

\begin{gathered} \text{Speed =}\frac{dis\tan ce}{time} \\ \text{distance = 1800 miles } \\ time\text{ = 2hours} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} \text{speed = }\frac{1800}{2} \\ \text{speed = 900 miles/hour} \end{gathered}

The average speed of the Boeing 747 is 900 miles/ hour

Two times a number is more than 36.
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

19 x 2 = 38

Twice a quantity usually indicates to take two of the things in question; usually this indicates to multiply by 2. Thus "twice a number x" can be written symbolically as 2x. If this is part of a problem, say twice a number x is 6, then we can rewrite algebraically as 2x=6; dividing both sides by 2 yields x=3.

Send it quick guys...
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

194

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall 2 rules to solve this easily:

1. (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2

2. (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2

<em>Now, if we let a = 7  and  b=4\sqrt{3}, we can say the problem is basically of the form:</em>

(a+b)^2 + (a-b)^2

This can be simplified using the rules:

(a+b)^2 + (a-b)^2\\a^2+2ab+b^2+a^2-2ab+b^2\\2a^2+2b^2

Now we can plug the values of a and b we initially thought of (remember though  \sqrt{x} \sqrt{x} =x):

2a^2+2b^2\\2(7)^2+2(4\sqrt{3})^2\\ 2(49)+2(4\sqrt{3})(4\sqrt{3})\\98+2(4)(4)(\sqrt{3} )(\sqrt{3} )\\98+2(4)(4)(3)\\98+96 \\194

194 is the final answer.
