Y=mx+b
x=number of newspapers
37.5 earned for 5 newspapers
37.5=5m+b

earned 75 and deliverd 20 newpapers
75=20m+b

we have

37.5=5m+b and
75=20m+b
multiply first equaiton by -1 and add to other equaiton

-37.5=-5m-b
<u>75=20m+b  +</u>
37.5=15m+0b

37.5=15m
divide both sides by 15
2.5=m

sub back to find b
75=2.5(20)+b
75=50+b
minsu 50 both sides
25=b

y=2.5x+25 is lnear funtion

Which is a factor of 5x2 − 15x − 20?
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

x= -1, x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

5x²-15x-20

5x²-20x+5x-20=0

5x(x-4) +5(x-4)

(5x+5) (x-4) =0

5x=-5 or x=4

x= -5/5. or x=4

x= -1 or x=4

A building engineer analyzes a concrete column with a circular cross section. The circumference of the column is 18 \pi18π18, pi
katrin [286]

The area of the cross section of the column is 18 \pi \ m^2

Explanation:

Given that a building engineer analyzes a concrete column with a circular cross section.

Also, given that the circumference of the column is 18 \pi meters.

We need to determine the area of the cross section of the column.

The area of the cross section of the column can be determined using the formula,

Area= \pi r^2

First, we shall determine the value of the radius r.

Since, given that circumference is 18 \pi meters.

We have,

2 \pi r=18 \pi

   r=9

Thus, the radius is r=9

Now, substituting the value r=9 in the formula Area= \pi r^2, we get,

Area = \pi (9)^2

Area = 81 \pi

Thus, the area of the cross section of the column is 18 \pi \ m^2

A clothing vendor estimates that 78 out of every 100 of its online customers do not live within 50 miles of one of its physical
Korolek [52]

Answer:

78% probability that a randomly selected online customer does not live within 50 miles of a physical​ store.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

Total outcomes:

100 customers

Desired outcomes:

A clothing vendor estimates that 78 out of every 100 of its online customers do not live within 50 miles of one of its physical stores. So the number of desired outcomes is 78 customers.

Using this​ estimate, what is the probability that a randomly selected online customer does not live within 50 miles of a physical​ store?

p = \frac{78}{100} = 0.78

78% probability that a randomly selected online customer does not live within 50 miles of a physical​ store.
