Answer:

B. 2

To find MAD, find the mean of the set, then find how far each number is from the mean. Next, find the mean of THAT set of numbers. Yea, I know it's a bit confusing... don't worry!

Find the mean of the set:

12 + 10 + 10 + 8 + 6 + 7 + 7 + 12

72 / 8

9

Find how far each number is from 9:

12 - 9 = 3

10 - 9 = 1

9 - 8 = 1

9 - 6 = 3

9 - 7 = 2

12 - 9 = 3

Find the mean of that number set:

{3, 1, 1, 1, 3, 2, 2, 3}

3 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 3

16 / 8

2

So the answer is 2!

Not so hard after all :D

Answer is 9. how you get this is u add all the numbers together and then divide it by how many number there are.

so for this i added (12+10+10+8+6+7+7+12) all together and i got 72. there are 8 numbers so i divided 72 by 8.

At one gym, there is a $12 start-up fee, and after that each month at the gym costs $20. At another gym, it costs $4 to startup,

mart [117]

Answer:

In 4 months the cost of both gyms will be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

At first we need to model the function to calculate the cost of the 2 gyms.

Slope-intercept equation of linear function

$f(x)=mx+b$

where

$m\rightarrow$ slope of line

$b\rightarrow$ y-intercept

Let linear function to calculate total cost of gym be:

$c(n)=mn+b$

where

$c\rightarrow$ total cost of gym

$m\rightarrow$ cost per month (slope)

$n\rightarrow$ number of months

$b\rightarrow$ start-up fee (y-intercept)

For Gym 1

$m=20$ , $b=12$

$c(n)=20n+12$

For Gym 2

$m=22$ , $b=4$

$c(n)=22n+4$

In order to find the number of months the cost of both gyms will be the same, we need to equate both functions and solve for number of months $(n)$

$20n+12=22n+4$

$\\\textrm{Subtracting 22n from both sides}\\20n-22n+12=22n-22n+4\\-2n+12=4\\\textrm{Subtracting 12 from both sides}\\-2n+12-12=4-12\\-2n=-8\\\textrm{Dividing both sides by -2}\\\frac{-2}{-2}n=\frac{-8}{-2}\\n=4\textrm{ months}$

So,

In 4 months the cost of both gyms will be the same.

Integration Constant C

Integration Rule [Reverse Power Rule]: $\displaystyle \int {x^n} \, dx = \frac{x^{n + 1}}{n + 1} + C$

Integration Property [Multiplied Constant]: $\displaystyle \int {cf(x)} \, dx = c \int {f(x)} \, dx$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

Point (0, 18)

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{1}{8} t$

Step 2: Find General Solution

Use integration

[Derivative] Rewrite: $\displaystyle dy = \frac{1}{8} t\ dt$
[Equality Property] Integrate both sides: $\displaystyle \int dy = \int {\frac{1}{8} t} \, dt$
[Left Integral] Integrate [Integration Rule - Reverse Power Rule]: $\displaystyle y = \int {\frac{1}{8} t} \, dt$
[Right Integral] Rewrite [Integration Property - Multiplied Constant]: $\displaystyle y = \frac{1}{8}\int {t} \, dt$
[Right Integral] Integrate [Integration Rule - Reverse Power Rule]: $\displaystyle y = \frac{1}{8}(\frac{t^2}{2}) + C$
Multiply: $\displaystyle y = \frac{t^2}{16} + C$
