Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Billy and Maria mow lawns. Billy earned $15 the first day and $20 every day after that. This means the if Billy mowed lawns for x days after the first day, the total amount earned by Billy would be

15 + 20x

Maria earned $10 the first day and $25 every day after that. This means the if Maria mowed lawns for y days after the first day, the total amount earned by Maria would be

10 + 25y

To determine how much each earns after 15 days, it becomes

For Billy, x = 15

Amount earned = 15 + 20×15 = $315

For Maria, y = 15

Amount earned = 10 + 25×15 = $385

Maria earns more than Billy

Which score has a higher relative position, a score of 271.2 on a test for which = 240 and , or a score of 63.6 on a test for wh
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The score of 271.2 on a test for which xbar = 240 and s = 24 has a higher relative position than a score of 63.6 on a test for which xbar = 60 and s = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Standardized score, z = (x - xbar)/s

xbar = mean, s = standard deviation.

For the first test, x = 271.2, xbar = 240, s = 24

z = (271.2 - 240)/24 = 1.3

For the second test, x = 63.6, xbar = 60, s = 6

z = (63.6 - 60)/6 = 0.6

The standardized score for the first test is more than double of the second test, hence, the score from the first test has the higher relative position.

Hope this Helps!!!

The table shows the estimated number of lines of code written by computer programmers per hour when x people are working.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Hence, the model that best represents the data is:

y=26.9x-1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a table that  shows the estimated number of lines of code written by computer programmers per hour when x people are working.

We are asked to find which model best represents the data?

So for finding this we will put the value of x in each of the functions and check which hold true that which gives the value of y i.e. f(x) as is given in the table:

We are given 4 functions as:

A)

y = 47(1.191)^x

B)

y=34\times (1.204)^x

C)

y=26.9x-1.3

D)

y=27x-4

We make the table of these values at different values of x.

x                  A                 B                C               D

2              66.66          49.3            52.5           50

4             94.57            71.44           106.3         104  

6             134.14           103.57         160.1          158

8             190.27          150.14          213.9         212

10           269.91           217.64         267.7         266

12           382.85          315.5           321.5          320.

Hence, the function that best represents the data is:

Option C.

y=26.9x-1.3

Viefleur [7K]

Since there are 6 students out of which one needs to be selected, the principal chose two die on which there are six numbers each numbered from 1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Since there are two dice, the total possible outcome is 36.

Hence, the probability of getting one number each is 1/36

Hence, the principal used a fair method because each result is an equally likely possible outcome.

Option B is correct.
