Answer:

f(x)=\dfrac{1}{4}x+25

Step-by-step explanation:

Clearly from the graph we could see that it passes through two points (0,25) and (20,30) and also as the graph is linear so with the help of these two points we can find the relation between f(x) and x.

We know that the equation of a line passing through two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by:

y-b=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}\times (x-a)

Here we have:

y=f(x) , (a,b)=(0,25) and (c,d)=(20,30).

Hence the equation of this graph is given as:

f(x)-25=\dfrac{30-25}{20-0}\times (x-0)\\\\f(x)-25=\dfrac{5}{20}\times x\\\\f(x)-25=\dfrac{1}{4}\times x\\\\f(x)=\dfrac{1}{4}x+25

Hence,

f(x)=\dfrac{1}{4}x+25

So here is the answer to the given question above. Analyzing the given figure, we can see that at 0 miles, the cost is 25. Between 0 and 40 miles, the cost rises by 10. Therefore, the function that would represent this situation would be this: <span>f(x) = (10/40)x+25
   </span><span>     f(x) = 1/4 *x+ 25
        f(x) = 0.25x + 25
Hope this is the answer that you area looking for. </span>

Kayleigh babysat for 11 hours this week. That was 5 fewer than 2/3 as many hours as she babysat last week, h. Write an equation
lukranit [14]

Answer: The answer is \textup{x}=\dfrac{2}{3}\textup{h}-5.


Step-by-step explanation: Given that Kayleigh babysat for 11 hours the present week. Also, this was 5 less than two-third of the number of hours she babysat last week, which is represented by 'h'.

We are to write an equation to represent the number of hours she babysat each week.

So, for that, let 'x' be the number of hours she babysat this week. Then, according to the question, we can write

\textup{x}=\dfrac{2}{3}\textup{h}-5.

Also, it is given that

\textup{x}=11.

Therefore,

11=\dfrac{2}{3}\textup{h}-5\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{3}\textup{h}=16\\\\\Rightarrow \textup{h}=24.

Hence, using the above relation, we can find the number oh hours Keyleigh babysat each week.

Thus, the required equation is

\textup{x}=\dfrac{2}{3}\textup{h}-5,

where, 'x' and 'h' are the number of hours she sat this week and last week respectively.

the table shows different ways that cameron can display his 12 model cars on shelves. How many shelves will display 2 cars if 8
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

4 shelves

Step-by-step explanation:

if there is 8 shelves that display 1 car then that means there is 8 cars total.

so if you need a total of 12 cars then you would do (total of cars needed - total of cars you have).

(12-8) which would equal 4.

you need 4 cars left but on each shelf going forward needs to have 2 cars on it.

now since you have 4 cars you would divide that by the amount of cars on each shelf going forward.

4/2) which equals 2.

you need 2 more shelfs for the 4 cars needed.

A survey conducted five years ago by the health center at a university showed that 18% of the students smoked at the time. This
podryga [215]

Answer:

test statistic (Z) is 2.5767 and p-value of the test is .009975

Step-by-step explanation:

H_{0}: percentage of students who smoke did not change

H_{a}: percentage of students who smoke has changed

z-statistic for the sample proportion can be calculated as follows:

z=\frac{p(s)-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{N} } } where

  • p(s) is the sample proportion of smoking students (\frac{50}{200} =0.25)
  • p is the proportion of smoking students in the survey conducted five years ago (18% or 0.18)
  • N is the sample size (200)

Then, z=\frac{0.25-0.18}{\sqrt{\frac{0.18*0.82}{200} } } ≈ 2.5767

What is being surveyed is if the percentage of students who smoke has changed over the last five years, therefore we need to seek two tailed p-value, which is .009975.

This p value is significant at 99% confidence level. Since .009975 <α/2=0.005, there is significant evidence that the percentage of students who smoke has changed over the last five years

A region R in the xy-plane is given. Find equations for a transformation T that maps a rectangular region S in the uv-plane onto
Gre4nikov [31]
\begin{cases}y=2x-2\\y=2x+2\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}-2x+y=-2\\-2x+y=2\end{cases}

For these lines, let u=-2x+y.

\begin{cases}y=2-x\\y=4-x\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}x+y=2\\x+y=4\end{cases}

And for these, let v=x+y.

Now,

\begin{cases}u=-2x+y\\v=x+y\end{cases}\implies \begin{bmatrix}u\\v\end{bmatrix}=\underbrace{\begin{bmatrix}-2&1\\1&1\end{bmatrix}}_{\mathbf T}\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}

The vertices of S in the x-y plane are (0, 2), (2/3, 10/3), (2, 2), and (4/3, 2/3). Applying \mathbf T to each of these yields, respectively, (2, 2), (2, 4), (-2, 4), and (-2, 2), which are the vertices of a rectangle whose sides are parallel to the u-v plane.
