Rita makes and sells necklaces. The materials to make each necklace cost $2.75. Last week she made 8 necklaces and wants to make

a total profit of $78. Using the equation 8 (x + 2.75) = 78, Rita determined that she needs to sell each necklace for $7 to make a total profit of $78. Which error did Rita make?
Although she has the correct equation, she needs to sell each necklace for $12.50.
Although she has the correct solution, she should have used the equation 8 (x minus 2.75) = 78.
The equation should be 8 (x minus 2.75) = 78, and she needs to sell each necklace for $12.50.
The equation should be StartFraction 1 over 8 EndFraction (x minus 2.75) = 78, and she needs to sell each necklace for $75.25.

Answer:

  The equation should be 8 (x minus 2.75) = 78, and she needs to sell each necklace for $12.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

The contribution margin of each necklace is the difference between its selling price (x) and its cost (2.75). Then the total profit from 8 necklaces would be ...

  8(x -2.75)

If Rita wants that profit to be $78, then she needs to solve the equation ...

  8(x -2.75) = 78 . . . . correct equation

The solution is ...

  x -2.75 = 9.75 . . . . divide by 8

  x = 12.50 . . . . . . . . add 2.75

She needs to sell each necklace for $12.50.

For each of parts (a) through (d), indicate whether we would generally expect the performance of a flexible statistical learning
olga_2 [115]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, note that a flexible statistical learning method refers to using models that take into account agree difference in the observed data set, and are thus adjustable. While the inflexible method usually involves a model that has no regard to the kind of data set.

a) The sample size n is extremely large, and the number of predictors p is small. (BETTER)

In this case since the sample size is extremely large a flexible model is a best fit.

b) The number of predictors p is extremely large, and the number of observations n is small. (WORSE)

In such case overfiting the data is more likely because of of the small observations.

c) The relationship between the predictors and response is highly non-linear. (BETTER)

The flexible method would be a better fit.

d) The variance of the error terms, i.e. σ2=Var(ϵ), is extremely high. (WORSE)

In such case, using a flexible model is a best fit for the error terms because it can be adjusted.

the smith family is designing new plans for an in ground pool. mr smith draws a rectangular shape with a length that is 5 feet l
Mnenie [13.5K]
Answer:
area of pool = w(w+5) = w^2 + 5w square feet

Explanation:
The height of the pool is used as its width.
Assume that the width of the pool is w feet.
Now, we are given that the length of the pool is 5 feet longer than its width.
This means that:
length of the pool = w + 5 feet
The area of the rectangle is calculated as follows:
area = length * width
area = (w+5) * (w)
area = w^2 + 5w square feet

Hope this helps :)
