Melinda works at a cafe. Each day that she works, she records x, the total dollar amount of her customers’ bills and then y, her

total daily wages. The table shows her data for 2 weeks. A 2-column table with 11 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries 50, 100, 75, 80, 90, 140, 150, 95, 125, 160, 165. The second column is labeled y with entries 36, 43, 38, 40, 42, 50, 60, 43, 46, 50, 55. A graph shows the horizontal axis numbered 40 to 160 and the vertical axis numbered 10 to 60. A line increases from 0 to 160. According to the line of best fit, what is the minimum amount, to the nearest dollar, Melinda will earn for each day of work, even if she serves no customers? $18 $26 $36 $40

Answer:

$26

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the table, the plot and the line of best fit are shown. There we can see the next equation:

y = 0.177x + 25.936

where x is the total dollar amount of her customers’ bills and then y is her total daily wages.

This means that even if she serves no customers (x = 0) she will earn $26  ($25.936 rounded to the nearest dollar)  for each day of work.

Total employment for sheet metal workers in 2016 is projected to be 201,000. if this is a 6.3% increase from 2006, approximately
fomenos

Answer:

Option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total employment for sheet metal workers in 2016 is projected to be = 201,000

This is a 6.3% increase from 2006.

Let the number of workers in 2006 be n

n + (6.3% of n) = 201,000

n + ( 0.063n) = 201,000

1.063n = 201,000

n = \frac{201,000}{1.063}

n = 189,087. 4882 ≈ 189,000

the total employment in 2006 was approximately 189,000

Option d is the answer.

The sample data below shows the number of hours spent by five students over the weekend to prepare for Monday's Business Statist
Levart [38]

Answer:

8.5 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

-A 75th percentile mathematically means that  75% of the time data points are below that value and 25% of the time are above that value.

-We plot the given our data {3 12 2 3 5} to determine the 75th percentile

#We can use alcula.com to plot our boxplot.

-From the plot, we find our 75th percentile to be 8.5 hrs

Hence, 75% of the time the number of hours spent to prepare was less than 8.5hrs.

Marlo uses 252 lb of gravel to cover a garden plot of 36 ft2. How many pounds of gravel does it take to cover one square foot? H
irakobra [83]

The area and the amount of gravel are illustrations of proportions.

7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.

The given parameters are:

252\ lb= 36ft^2

The number of pound for an area of <em>1 square foot </em>is calculated as follows:

x = 1ft^2

So, we have:

x = 1ft^2

252\ lb= 36ft^2

Cross multiply

x \times 36 = 252 \times 1

Divide both sides by 36

x = 7lb

The area to be covered with 315lb gravel is calculated as follows:

315lb = y

So, we have:

315lb = y

252\ lb= 36ft^2

Cross multiply

y \times 252 = 36 \times 315

y \times 252 = 11340

Divide both sides by 252

y = 45

Hence, 7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.

On a number line, the directed line segment from Q to S has endpoints Q at –14 and S at 2. Point R partitions the directed line
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer;

x1 + k (x2-x1) , -14 + 3/8 (2-(-14))

x1 = -14, k = 3/8 and x2 =2

Thus; -14 + 3/8 (2- (-14))

Thus; the expression that correctly uses the formula to find the location of point R is;

= x1 + k (x2-x1) , -14 + 3/8 (2-(-14))
