You used p minutes one month on your cell phone. The next month you used 75 fewer minutes. Simplify the expression.
Anestetic [448]
Hi there!

Let's assume that one month is represented by the variable 'm', the amount of minutes you started with is 's', and minutes you spent is 'p'.

So, one month can be represented as 'm=s-p'.

The next month is a bit more tricky. This will incorporate 75 less minutes into the equation. 'm=s-75' can be used to represent this, as we assume that you didn't use any minutes in the first month, and that p=75 in this case.

If you found this especially helpful, I'd appreciate if you'd vote me Brainliest for your answer. I want to be able to assist more users one-on-one, as well as to move up in rank! :)

The graph shows the amount of dirt left to remove, y, with respect to number of loads of dirt, x. Use the graph to complete each
Tema [17]

Part 1. When x=0, then y=900 (from the graph). This means that y-intercept is at point (0,900).

Answer Part 1: 900

Part 2. The y-intercept is at point (0,900). This means that at x=0 (loads), the total amount of dirt to remove is 900 cubic feet.

Answer Part 2: the total amount of dirt to remove.

Calculate the value of x to one decimal place. inches
kakasveta [241]

Use the law of cosines: c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos C

We have:

c=x\\a=3in\\b=7in\\C=54^o

substitute:

\cos54^o\approx0.5878\\\\c^2=3^2+7^2-2\cdot3\cdot7\cdot0.5878\\\\c^2=9+49-24.6876\\\\c^2=33.3129\to c=\sqrt{33.3129}\\\\c\approx5.8

Find the eccentricity, b. identify the conic, c. give an equation of the directrix, and d. sketch the conic.
densk [106]

Answer:

a) 10/3  

b) hyperbola

c) x = ± 6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A conic section with a focus at the origin, a directrix of x = ±p where p is a positive real number and positive eccentricity (e) has a polar equation:

r=\frac{ep}{1\pm e*cos\theta}

Given the conic equation: r=\frac{12}{3-10cos\theta}

We have to make it to be in the form r=\frac{ep}{1\pm e*cos\theta}:

r=\frac{12}{3-10cos\theta}\\\\multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ \frac{1}{3} \\\\r=\frac{12*\frac{1}{3}}{(3-10cos\theta)*\frac{1}{3}}\\\\r=\frac{12*\frac{1}{3}}{3*\frac{1}{3}-10cos\theta*\frac{1}{3}}\\\\r=\frac{4}{1-\frac{10}{3}cos\theta } \\\\r=\frac{\frac{10}{3}(\frac{6}{5} ) }{1-\frac{10}{3}cos\theta }

Comparing with  r=\frac{ep}{1\pm e*cos\theta}

e = 10/3 = 3.3333, p = 6/5

b) since the eccentricity = 3.33 > 1, it is a hyperbola

c) The equation of the directrix is x = ±p = ± 6/5

We suspect that automobile insurance premiums (in dollars) may be steadily decreasing with the driver's driving experience (in y
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

D) a chi square test for independence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we  suspect that automobile insurance premiums (in dollars) may be steadily decreasing with the driver's driving experience (in years), so we choose a random sample of drivers who have similar automobile insurance coverage and collect data about their ages and insurance premiums.

We are to check whether two variables insurance premiums and driving experience are associated.

Two categorical variables are compared for different ages and insurance premiums.

Hence a proper test would be

D) a chi square test for independence.
