Answer:

0.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent means 'per 100'. So 56% means 56 per 100 or simply 56/100. If you divide 56 by 100, you'll get 0.56.

56/100 = 0.56

The exponential function y= a(b)^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10). Which of the following is closest to the value o

Yuki888 [10]

If the exponential function $y=ab^x$ passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833

The given exponential equation is:

$y=ab^x$

The function passes through the points (3, 25) and (8, 10)

Substitute x = 3 and y = 25 into the function $y=ab^x$

$25=ab^3$ ............................(1)

Substitute x = 8 and y = 10 into the function $y=ab^x$

$10=ab^8$ .............................(2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

$\frac{10}{25}=\frac{ab^8}{ab^3} \\\\0.4=b^5\\\\b=0.4^\frac{1}{5} \\\\b=0.4^{0.2}\\\\b=0.833$

Therefore, if the exponential function $y=ab^x$ passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833

If the relative frequency of a train being late is 0.15, how often could you expect the train to be late in 100 days?

Natali [406]

Relative frequency is the number of times that the train is late between the total of journeys, so only multiply 0.15*100 =15 times

A phone company offers two monthly plans. Plan A costs $16

Trava [24]

We can write two equations for this. x = each minute of calls

Plan A = .1x + 16
Plan B = .14x

Make the two equations equal each other, so we can find when they are the same.

.1x + 16 = .14x

Subtract .1x from both sides

16 = 0.04x

Divide by 0.04 to get x by itself

400 = x.

Earlier, we set x as each minute of calls. This means that after 400 calls, Plan A and Plan B will cost the same.

To find the cost, substitute 400 into both equations by themselves.

Plan A cost = .1x + 16
Plan A cost = .1(400) + 16
Plan A cost = 40 + 16
Plan A cost = $56

Plan B cost = .14x
Plan B cost = .14(400)
Plan B cost = $56

Final answer: After 400 calls, Plan A and Plan B will both cost $56.
