J'Neices cell phone plan is $79 per month for unlimited calling plus 1000 text messages. Text messages over 1000 cost $0.15 each

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

C. 244

Step-by-step explanation:

It costs 79 dollars a month = 79x

It costs 0.15 dollars for every text message over 1000 = 0.15y

The equation is:

79x + 0.15y = z

X = months

Y = Each text message over 1000

Z = the total amount spent

Let's plug in our values

79(1) + 0.15(1100) = z

79 * 1 = 79

0.15 * 1100 = 165

79 + 165 = z

79 + 165 = 244

z = 244

(−4x^4 +6x^2 +3) − (5x^2 - 3)

Alborosie

Answer:

$-4x^{4} + x^{2} + 6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(-4x^{4} + 6x^{2} + 3) - (5x^{2} - 3) = -4x^{4} + 6x^{2} + 3 - 5x^{2} + 3 = -4x^{4} + 6x^{2} - 5x^{2} + 3 + 3 = -4x^{4} + x^{2} + 6$

1. Consider the data set 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: a) Mean = 5, Median = 5

b) Mean = 15, Median = 5

c) Due to presence of outlier i.e. 99.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

Here, n = 9 which is odd

So, Mean would be

$\dfrac{1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9}{9}=\dfrac{45}{9}=5$

Median = $(\dfrac{n+1}{2})^{th}=\dfrac{9+1}{2}=5^{th}=5$

If 9 is replaced by 99,

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,99

So, mean would be

$\dfrac{1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+99}{9}=\dfrac{135}{9}=15$

Median would be same as before i.e. 5

The mean is neither central nor typical for the data due to outlier i.e. 99

Hence, a) Mean = 5, Median = 5

b) Mean = 15, Median = 5

c) Due to presence of outlier i.e. 99.
