Just to avoid some confusion: <u>the first picture is a graph of function A, and the second picture is a graph of function B. </u>

Answer:

D. Function A is non-linear and Function B is linear.

Step-by-step explanation:

A good way to find out if a function is linear is by graphing it. If you graph it and it is a straight line, then it is linear.

So, let's graph the given points from the table of Function A and see if it forms a straight line. When you connect the dots, it's not straight, so Function A is non-linear.

Now let's look at function B. We can graph that too with the given information from the equation - the slope is -1 and the y-intercept is 5. (If you are a bit confused on how to graph it, don't hesitate to ask!) It does form a straight line, so Function B is linear.

Answer: D. The dotplot is closer to approximately normal than the distribution of the population with mean $150 and standard deviation $10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the dotplot created from the 100 sample, the dotplot is closer to approximately normal than the distribution of the population with mean $150 and standard deviation $10.

The mean of the sampling distribution is just exactly like the population mean. On the other hand, the standard deviation will be: = 50/✓25 = 50/5 = 10

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Dr. Gonzalez is considering joining the Garden Club. If he pays a $25 membership fee, he

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

In the Garden Club the cost will be a fixed fee of $25 and $10 for each rosebush, so if he buys X rosebushes, the total cost will be:

C1(X) = $25 + $10*X

While in the local nursery there is no initial cost, and each rosebush costs $15, so if he buys X rosebushes, the total cost will be:

C2(X) = $15*X

Now, let's find the value of X where C1 and C2 are equal, this is:

$25 + $10*X = $15*X
