produced from a random sample is Milk = 40.8 – 1.1 (Age). Based on the model, what is the difference in predicted amounts of milk produced between a cow of 5 years and a cow of 10 years?

A cow of 5 years is predicted to produce 5.5 fewer gallons per week

B A cow of 5 years is predicted to produce 5.5 more gallons per week

c) A cow of 5 years is predicted to produce 1.1 fewer gallons per week

D) A cow of 5 years is predicted to produce 1.1 more gallons per week

Answer:

B. A cow of 5 years is predicted to produce 5.5 more gallons per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M(a) = 40.8-1.1\cdot a, where a is the age of the dairy cow, measured in years, and M(a) is the predicted milk production, measured in gallons per week.

Besides, we consider a_{1} and a_{2}, such that a_{1}\ne a_{2}, we define the difference between predicted milk productions (\Delta M) below:

\Delta M = -1.1\cdot (a_{2}-a_{1}) (1)

If we know that a_{1} = 5\,yr and a_{2} = 10\,yr, then the difference between predicted milk productions is:

\Delta M = -1.1\cdot (10-5)

\Delta M = -5.5\,\frac{gal}{week}

That is, a cow of 5 years is predicted to produce 5.5 more gallons per week than a cow of 10 years. Hence, the right answer is B.

if a lady chargers $2.00 for gas and $3.00 per 1/2 hour of work . What is the amount of money she makes in 4 hours ?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

$32

Step-by-step explanation:

The lady charges $2.00 for gas which means over a 4 hour period we would do

4 x 2 = 8

She makes a total of 8 dollars

She also gains $3.00 per half hour of work

This means we would do 3 x 8

24

We add these values to get $32

Which algebraic expression represents “the quotient of a number and six”? 6 + w 6w 6 – w StartFraction w Over 6 EndFraction
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The one with the fraction is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient means dividing, so the answer has to have a fraction sign in it. We can't see the answer options properly, so whatever one with the fraction is the one you should choose. I think it's the third option that you wrote.

Hope this helped!
