Answer:

a) Unit: College Student

Variables of measurement: Procrastination and illness habits.

b) Unit: SUV cars

Variables: Manufacturing and car damage for two car manufactures.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

In a research, a unit is a single individual or object that is measured.

a) A study finds that college students who often procrastinate tend to be sick more often than students who do not procrastinate.

Since college students are asked about procrastination, then the unit in this study is college students.

Unit: College Student

Variables of measurement: Procrastination and illness habits.

b) A study finds that sport utility vehicles (SUVs) made by one car manufacturer tend to be more heavily damaged in a crash test than SUVs made by a second car manufacturer.

Since all SUVs cars are considered, the unit in this research is  SUV cars

Unit: SUV cars

Variables: Manufacturing and car damage for two car manufactures.

A local pizza shop has a membership program for frequent buyers. The membership costs $5 per month and members get a discounted
Len [333]

Answer: Nazim have to pay $35 for 20 slices of pizza.

Monthly cost for x slices =  5+1.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of slices

As per given,

Total monthly cost for x slices = (membership cost) +(discounted price) ×(x)

i.e. Total monthly cost for x slices = 5+1.5x

If x=20

Then, Nazim have to pay = 5+1.5(20)

= 5+30= $35

i..e Nazim have to pay $35 for 20 slices of pizza.

Monthly cost for x slices =  5+1.5x

Factor f(x) = 15x^3 - 15x^2 - 90x completely and determine the exact value(s) of the zero(s) and enter them as a comma separated
Illusion [34]

Answer:

x=-2,0,3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a function f(x)=15x^3-15x^2-90x. We are asked to find the zeros of our given function.

To find the zeros of our given function, we will equate our given function by 0 as shown below:

15x^3-15x^2-90x=0

Now, we will factor our equation. We can see that all terms of our equation a common factor that is 15x.

Upon factoring out 15x, we will get:

15x(x^2-x-6)=0

Now, we will split the middle term of our equation into parts, whose sum is -1 and whose product is -6. We know such two numbers are -3\text{ and }2.

15x(x^2-3x+2x-6)=0

15x((x^2-3x)+(2x-6))=0

15x(x(x-3)+2(x-3))=0

15x(x-3)(x+2)=0

Now, we will use zero product property to find the zeros of our given function.

15x=0\text{ (or) }(x-3)=0\text{ (or) }(x+2)=0

15x=0\text{ (or) }x-3=0\text{ (or) }x+2=0

\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{0}{15}\text{ (or) }x-3=0\text{ (or) }x+2=0

x=0\text{ (or) }x=3\text{ (or) }x=-2

Therefore, the zeros of our given function are x=-2,0,3.
