Answer:

If Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her less if she rents from Company B

If Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her the same at either company

h(x) = 5x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Marguerite wants to rent a carpet cleaner. Company A rents a carpet cleaner for $15 per day. Company B rents a carpet cleaner for $100 per week, with a one-time fee of $5. The following functions represent the rate structures of the two rental companies: x = the number of weeks Company A f(x) = 15(7x) Company B g(x) = 100x + 5 The function h(x) = f(x) – g(x) represents the difference between the two rate structures. Determine which statements about h(x) and about renting a carpet cleaner are true. Check all that apply. If Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her more if she rents from Company B. If Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her less if she rents from Company B. If Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her the same at either company. If Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her more if she rents from Company A. h(x) = 5x – 5 h(x) = 5x + 5

Answer: Company A rents a carpet cleaner for $15 per day. Company B rents a carpet cleaner for $100 per week, with a one-time fee of $5. In one week there are 7 days, therefore in x weeks the cost of rentals are given below:

For company A: f(x) = 15(7x)

For company B: g(x) = 100x + 5

h(x) = f(x) – g(x) represents the difference between the two rate structures.

h(x) = f(x) - g(x) = 15(7x) - (100x + 5)

h(x) = 105x - 100x - 5

h(x) = 5x - 5

If Marguerite rents for 2 weeks:

The cost for company A = 15(7x) = 15(7 × 2) = $210

The cost for company B = 100x + 5 = 100(2) + 5 = 200 + 5 = $205

If Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her less if she rents from Company B

If Marguerite rents for 1 weeks:

The cost for company A = 15(7x) = 15(7 × 1) = $105

The cost for company B = 100x + 5 = 100(1) + 5 = 100 + 5 = $105

If Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her the same at either company

11. (-7,-12,0, 5,2,-4,-1) least to greatest

Mkey [24]

Answer:

-12, -7, -4, -1, 0, 2, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The larger a negative number the less value it actually has, whereas the larger a positive number the more value it has. You can think about it as if someone has taken something from you. If I take $12 from you you have less money than if I were to only take $7 from you. With positive numbers, you would have more money if I gave you 5 dollars than if I only gave you 2 dollars. You will always have more money if I give you money than if I were to take away money, that is why positive numbers are greater than negative numbers.

Solve the following word problem by using an equation and factoring. The sum of a positive number and its square is 20. What is

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Number: n
square of number: n^2
sum of n and n^2 is n+n^2=20
Rewriting this equation, we get n^2+n-20=0 = (n+5)(n-4) = 0

Then n+5=0 and n-4=0, so n = -5 and n = 4.

You must check both results. It could happen that both are correct, or that only one is correct.

The claim is that the proportion of accidental deaths of the elderly attributable to residential falls is more than 0.10, and th

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The correct option is b) 4.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Test statistic for proportion: $z=\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n}}}$

It is given that the claim is that the proportion of accidental deaths of the elderly attributable to residential falls is more than 0.10, and the sample statistics include n=800 deaths of the elderly with 15 percent of them attribute to residential falls.

Therefore, $\hat p=0.15$ , p = 0.1, q = 1-0.1 = 0.9 and n = 800.
