Each computer costs $225 and each printer costs $150

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas is starting a new company. He has two quotes from a computer company for the cost of computers and printers

  • If he buys three computers and one printer, the cost is $825
  • If he buys 4 computers and 2 printers, the cost is $1200

We need to find how much each computer and printer costs

Assume that the cost of each computer is $x and the cost of each printer is $y

∵ The cost of each computer is $x

∵ The cost of each printer is $y

∵ The cost of 3 computers and one printer is $825

- Multiply x by 3 and add the product to y, equate the sum by 825

∴ 3x + y = 825 ⇒ (1)

∵ The cost of 4 computers and 2 printers is $1200

- Add the product of 4, x and the product of 2 , y and equate the

  sum by 1200

∴ 4x + 2y = 1200 ⇒ (2)

Now we have a system of equations to solve it

Multiply equation (1) by -2 to eliminate y

∵ -6x - 2y = -1650 ⇒ (3)

- Add equations (2) and (3)

∴ -2x = -450

- Divide both sides by -2

∴ x = 225

Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y

∵ 3(225) + y = 825

∴ 675 + y = 825

- Subtract 675 from both sides

∴ y = 150

Each computer costs $225 and each printer costs $150

Solid a is a right, rectangular prism, in other words is a box. The length and width are double to form solid b, but the heigth
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The length and width dimensions of solid 'a' are multiplied by 2 while the height remains the same to get the representative quantity in solid, b

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters of solid 'a' are;

The shape of solid, a = Right, rectangular prism

Let 'l' represent the length of solid 'a', let 'w' represent the width of solid 'a' and let 'h' represent the height of solid 'a'

We have;

The length of solid, l_b = 2·l

The width of solid, w_b = 2·w

The height of solid, h_b = h

Given that we have;

The length of solid, b = 2 × The length of solid, a

The width of solid, b = 2 × The width of solid, a

The height of solid, b = The height of solid, a

The dimensions of length and width of each quantity in solid 'a' will be multiplied by 2 to find the dimension of a similar quantity in solid 'b'

The change in volume from solid 'a' to solid 'b' is given as follows;

The volume of solid, 'a', Vₐ = l × w × h = l·w·h

The volume of solid, 'b', V_b = 2·l × 2·w ×h = 4·l·w·h

V_b = 4 × Vₐ

Therefore, the volume of each unit volume in solid 'a' is multiplied by 4 to get the volume of the image of the unit volume in solid 'b'

The cross sectional area of solid 'a', Aₐ = l × w

The cross sectional area of solid 'b', A_b = 2·l × 2·w = 4·l·w

A_b = 4 × Aₐ

The cross sectional area of each unit of solid 'a' is multiplied by 4 to get the image of the unit cross sectional area in solid 'b'.

Therefore;

The change in the height and width of of solid 'b' is equal to a change in twice the height and width of solid 'a' at a given height, 'h'

The relationships are;

l_b = 2·l, w_b = 2·w, h_b = h

The estimate regression equation for a model involving two independent variables and 10 observations follows.
True [87]

Answer:

a) b_1 = 0.5906\\b_2 = 0.4980

b) y = 289.815

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

The estimate regression equation for a model involving two independent variables and 10 observations follows:

y = 29.1270 + 0.5906x_1 + 0.4980x_2

where x_1, x_2 are the two independent variable and y is the dependent variable.

a) The regression line is of the form:

y = b_0 + b_1x_1 + b_2x_2\\\text{where } b_0 \text{ is the y-intercept and }b_1, b_2\text{ are the coefficients of} x_1, x_2\text{ respectively}

Comparing, we get,

b_1 = 0.5906\\b_2 = 0.4980

These are the coefficients of x_1, x_2 respectively, and helps us to know the the significance of the independent variable in predicting the independent variable.

b) We have to estimate y when

x_1 = 180 \text{ and } x_2 = 310\\y = 29.1270 + 0.5906x_1 + 0.4980x_2\\\text{Putting values}\\y = 29.1270 + 0.5906(180) + 0.4980(320)\\y = 289.815
