Step-by-step explanation:

the price charged for 100 students reflects the cost per student that applies to the order as a whole.

100 * 6 = $600, so the fixed cost is 750-600 = 150.

...

We can check this by substituting in the other equation.

Does 150*6 + 150 = 1050?

150*6=900

900+150 = 1050.

Yes, it does

...

We can express this relationship by the equation:

y = mx + b

where

y = total cost

m = $6 per student

x = number of students

b = fixed costs = 150

y = 6x + 150

Working simultaneously, four fudge machines complete a big order in 32 hours. All the machines at the fudge factory work at the
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

4 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the rate of the machines 1/x, because every time they complete an order, it takes them x hours. To find x, we have to add the the rates of the individual machines, which would equal the rate of the machines working together. We know that there are four machines working together at the same rate, and it took them 32 hours.

So:

1/x + 1/x + 1/x + 1/x = 1/32

1/4x = 1/32

4x = 32

x = 8

Thus, the rate of the machines is 1/8.

Now we have to find the time of the order with only half of the machines working together. This time, we don't know the combined rate, so I'll substitute it for y.

1/8 + 1/8 = 1/y

1/4 = 1/y

y = 4

The time taken to complete it is 4 hours.

lakkis [162]

Answer:

Option B) 9.1      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Average score = 490.4

Standard deviation = 63.7

Sample size, n = 49

Formula:

=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting values, we get,

Standard error =

=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{63.7}{\sqrt{49}} = 9.1

Thus, the correct answer is

Option B) 9.1
