$1.21 but I don't know the equation...sorry

Your formula would be 3(p+0.75)=5.88


Because you have 3 pounds and 0.75 for each.

Solving the equation by distributing, you will get P=1.21


Hope this helps!

"How much do students pay, on average, for textbooks during the first semester in college? From a random sample of 400 students
dezoksy [38]

Answer: The margin of error = 3.71, confidence interval = (354.04, 361.46) and it means that mean cost is lies within the confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sample size = 400

Mean = $357.75

Standard deviation = $37.89

At 95% confidence level, z = 1.96

We first find the margin of error.

Margin of error is given by

z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=1.96\times \dfrac{37.89}{\sqrt{400}}\\\\=3.71

95% confidence interval would be

\bar{x}\pm \text{margin of error}\\\\=357.75\pm 3.71\\\\=(357.75-3.71,357.75+3.71)\\\\=(354.04,361.46)

Hence, the margin of error = 3.71, confidence interval = (354.04, 361.46) and it means that mean cost is lies within the confidence interval.

If a and B are the zeros of the quadratic polynomial f(x) = x2- 5x + 4 find the value of 1/a+1/b-2ab
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

<h2>-27/4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic polynomial given as g(x) = x²- 5x + 4, the zeros of the quadratic polynomial occurs at g(x) = 0 such that x²- 5x + 4 = 0.

Factorizing the resulting equation to get the roots

x²- 5x + 4 = 0

(x²- x)-(4 x + 4) = 0

x(x-1)-4(x-1) = 0

(x-1)(x-4) = 0

x-1 = 0 and x-4 = 0

x = 1 and x = 4

Since a and b are known to be the root then we can say a = 1 and b =4

Substituting the given values into the equation  1/a+1/b-2 ab , we will have;

= 1/1 + 1/4 - 2*1*4

= 1 + 1/4 - 8

= 5/4 - 8

Find the Lowest common multiple

= (5-32)/4

= -27/4

<em>Hence the required value is -27/4</em>

Draw the graphs of the functions y=1.2x+.9 and y=−1.3x+4.4. Using the graph, locate the points of intersection of the two graphs
jasenka [17]
To draw a graph of any linear function you need two points only.  We usually use x and y intercepts because these are easiest to work with. 
To find x-intercept we set y to be 0. This is also called zero of a function. Let us find x-intercepts for those two functions:
y=1.2x+0.9
y=-1.3x+4.4
Now we simply set y=0 and solve for x:
0=1.2x+0.9
0=-1.3x+4.4

1.2x=-0.9
1.3x=4.4

x=-0.75
x=3.4
Now we need to find y-intercepts. To do this we simply set x to be zero.
y=1.2x+0.9
y=-1.3x+4.4

y=0.9
y=4.4
Graphs of our functions are not defined by these two points.
y=1.2x+0.9; (0,-0.75),(0.9,0)
y=-1.3x+4.4; (0,3.4),(4.4,0)
To draw a graph you simply draw a line through these two points.
To find intersection we can use a fact that at the point of intersection both functions have the same value. We can write that down mathematically this way:
-1.3x+4.4=1.2x+0.9
Now we need to solve for x. This will give us an x coordinate of the intersection point.
2.5x=3.5
x=1.4
Now we simply plug in these value of x in any function to obtain y coordinate of the interception point.
y=1.2x+0.9
y=1.2(1.4)+0.9
y=2.6
Our intersection point the following coordinates (1.4,2.6).
I have attached the graph with all the points that we calculated highlighted.
