Tamara has decided to start saving for spending money for her first year of college. Her money is currently in a large suitcase

under her bed, modeled by the function s(x) = 450. She is able to babysit to earn extra money and that function would be a(x) = 6(x − 2), where x is measured in hours. Explain to Tamara how she can create a function that combines the two, and describe any simplification that can be done.

Answer:

t(x) = 6x + 438

Step-by-step explanation:

The total (marked it as t) amount of money that Tamara has is the sum of the money under her bed and the money that she makes by babysitting.

Note that the first function is fixed and doesn't  actually depend on x (it could be written s = 450), so the only variable, which changes, is the hours (x) in the second function.

// combining the two functions

t(x) = 450 + 6(x − 2)

// simplification

t(x) = 450 + 6x − 12

t(x) = 450 + 6x − 12

// the simplified function is

t(x) = 6x + 438

the product of two whole numbers is 36 . what is the greatest possible sum that the number can have?​
ch4aika [34]

Whole numbers are positive numbers without decimals.  First, list all the whole number factors of 36:

1 and 36

2 and 18

3 and 12

4 and 9

6 and 6

Next, see which one of those pairs has the highest sum:

1+36=37

2+18=20

3+12=15

4+9=13

6+6=12

The greatest possible sum the numbers can have is 37.

Hope this helps!!

The Census Bureau says that the 10 most common names in the United States are (in order) Smith, Johnson, Williams, Jones, Brown,
scZoUnD [109]
Using binomial distribution where success is the appearing of any of the top 10 most common names, thus probability of success (p) is 9.6% = 0.096 and the probability of failure = 1 - 0.096 = 0.904. Number of trials is 11.
Binomial distribution probability is given by P(x) = nCx (p)^x (q)^(n - x)
Probability that none of the top 10 most common names appears is P(0) = 11C0 (0.096)^0 (0.904)^(11 - 0) = (0.904)^11 = 0.3295
Thus, the probability that at least one of the 10 most common names appear is 1 - 0.3295 = 0.6705

Therefore, I will be supprised that none of the names of the authors were among the 10 most common names given that the probability that at least one of the names appear is 67%.
