Answer:

He drove the truck for 234 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of miles for which he drove the truck.

There was a base fee of $20.99, and there was an additional charge of .96 cents for each mile driven. It means that the expression for the cost of driving the truck for x miles in a day is

20.99 + 0.96x

Trey has to pay $245.63 when he returned the truck. It means that

20.99 + 0.96x = 245.63

0.96x = 245.63 - 20.99

0.96x = 224.64

x = 224.64/0.96

x = 234 miles

An investigator wants to estimate caffeine consumption in high school students. how many students would be required to estimate
astraxan [27]

We can solve this problem by referring to the standard probability distribution tables for z.

We are required to find for the number of samples given the proportion (P = 5% = 0.05) and confidence level of 95%. This would give a value of z equivalent to:

z = 1.96

Since the problem states that it should be within the true proportion then p = 0.5

Now we can find for the sample size using the formula:

n = (z^2) p q /E^2

where,

<span> p = 0.5</span>

q = 1 – p = 0.5

E = estimate of 5% = 0.05

Substituting:

n = (1.96^2) 0.5 * 0.5 / 0.05^2

n = 384.16

Answer:

Please find attached the required inverse of a function chart

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse of a function is found by reversing the operations of the  function

The inverse of the function f(x) = 2·x - 4 is found as follows;

x = 2·x - 4

x + 4 = 2·x

x = (x + 4)/2 = x/2 + 2

Therefore, the inverse of the function f(x) = 2·x - 4 is f(x) = x/2 + 2

The inverse function is plotted by generating data points as follows;

{}x         {}          f(x)

0                2

1                  2.5

2                 3

3                  3.5

4                   4

5                   4.5

6                   5

7                   5.5

8                   6
