You are trying to decide whether to use Uber or Lyft during a vacation. Uber charges $3 to pick up plus an additional $0.25 for

each mile driven. Lyft does not charge to pick up but they have a rate of $0.75 for each mile driven.
Let = the number of miles traveled and = the total cost for the trip.

If a trip is 8 miles, which company would be the better choice?

Answer:

Uber is the best choice

Step-by-step explanation:

Uber: $0.25 × 8

          = $2.00

Lyft: $0.75 × 8

        = $6.00

The population standard deviation of the numbers 3, 8, 12, 17, and 25 is 7.563 correct to 3 decimal places. what happens if each

Let's figure this out as though we have no idea what the answer would be.

Step One
Find the new five numbers.
3*3, 8*3, 12*3, 17*3, 25*3
9 , 24 , 36, 51, 75

Step 2
Find the average
(9 + 24 + 36 + 51 + 75)/5 = 195/5 = 39

Step 3
Subtract the individual numbers from the average
(39 - 9) = 30
(39 -24) = 15
(39 - 36) = 3
(39 - 51) = - 12
(39 - 75) = -36

Step 4 
Square the results from Step 3
30^2 = 900
15^2 = 225
3^2 = 9
(-12)^2 = 144
(-36)^2 = 1296

Step 5
Take the average of the results from step 4
(900 + 225 + 9 + 144 + 1296)/5
2574 / 5 = 514.8

Step 6
Take the square root of the result from step 5
deviation = sqrt(514.8)
deviation = 22.689

Step seven 
Compare the two standard deviations.
s2/s1 = 22.689 / 7.563 = 3

Conclusion
If you are given 1 set of numbers to find a population standard deviation and you multiply each member by a, then the result will be a * the standard population deviation of the first set of numbers.

Note
Your calculator will do this as well, but you have to know how to enter the data into your calculator. That requires that you follow the directions carefully.

Will somebody help me with this ? Very much appreciated!! I’ll mark u as brainliest!
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x - 1/4

x = 1/4                  Put this value in for x

y = 1/4 - 1/4

y = 0

x = 13/4

y = 13/4 - 1/4        The denominators remain the same The numerators are subtracted.

y = (13 - 1)/4

y = 12/4

y = 3

If x is to = 2 then it must be changed so it's denominator is 4

2 = 8/4

y= 8/4 - 1/4

y = 7/4 or 1.75  or 1 3/4

Help me Please..

Just general definitons:

a TRInomial has 3 terms (tri means three)
a BInomial has 2 terms (bi means two)
a MONOmial has 1 term (mono means one)

the degree is the highest exponent found in the algebraic expression

so they should be pretty easy to solve with that information, but just in case:

1. trinomial, degree of 4
2. binomial, degree of 3
3. monomial, degree of 2

for the final question, all you have to do is plug in 2 for x, so

(2)^2 - 2(2) + 1

4 - 4 + 1

so the answer is 1

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Expected rate of return  =7.1% (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Current stock price = $50

Divided d = $2

Growth rate g = 5 %

Find:

Expected rate of return

Computation:

Expected rate of return = D(1+g)/Current Price + g

Expected rate of return = [2(1+5%)/50] + 5%

Expected rate of return  =7.1% (Approx.)
