To bill customers for water usage, one city converts the number of gallons used into units. This relationship is represented by

the equation g = 748u, where g is the total number of gallons of water used and u is the number of units.
Determine which statements about the relationship are true. Check all that apply.

g is the dependent variable.
u is the dependent variable.
g is the independent variable.
u is the independent variable.
The variables cannot be labeled without a table of values.
The variables cannot be labeled since any value can be selected for either.

Answer:

option (a) and (d) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : To bill customers for water usage, one city converts the number of gallons used into units.

This relationship is represented by the equation g = 748u

where, g is the total number of gallons of water used and u is the number of units.

We have to check out of given options which statement about the relationship is true.

Since, given relationship is g = 748u.

We can put any value of u and find the corresponding value of g at that u.

For example

Since, u is the number of units used Let it be 30 units.

Then , we can find g , the total number of gallons of water used

By the relationship as g = 748u

Putting u = 30 , we get g = 748(30) = 22440 gallons.

So, here g depends on u and u is independent variable.

Thus, option (a) and (d) is correct.

We are given equation g = 748u, where g is the total number of gallons of water used and u is the number of units.

We can see that the number of units of water being used by customers.

The number of units of water doesn't depend on the total number of gallons of water used.

Therefore, the number of units u is an independent variable.

The value of the total number of gallons is totally depends on the number of units used.

Therefore, the total number of gallons of water used g is a dependent variable.

So, we can conclude following statements:

1) g is the dependent variable.

2) u is the independent variable.

Conditional probability is a measure of the probability of an event given that another event has occurred. If the event of interest is A and the event B is known or assumed to have occurred, "the conditional probability of A given B", or "the probability of A under the condition B", is usually written as P(A|B), or sometimes $P_B(A)$ .

The conditional probability of event A happening, given that event B has happened, written as P(A|B) is given by
$P(A|B)= \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}$

In the question, we were told that there are three randomly selected coins which can be a nickel, a dime or a quarter.

The probability of selecting one coin is $\frac{1}{3}$

Part A:
To find <span>the probability that all three coins are quarters if the first two envelopes Jeanne opens each contain a quarter, let the event that all three coins are quarters be A and the event that the first two envelopes Jeanne opens each contain a quarter be B.

P(A) means that the first envelope contains a quarter AND the second envelope contains a quarter AND the third envelope contains a quarter.

Thus $P(A)= \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{27}$

</span><span>P(B) means that the first envelope contains a quarter AND the second envelope contains a quarter

</span><span>Thus $P(B)= \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{9}$

Therefore, $P(A|B)=\left( \frac{ \frac{1}{27} }{ \frac{1}{9} } \right)= \frac{1}{3}$

Part B:
</span>To find the probability that all three coins are different if the first envelope Jeanne opens contains a dime<span>, let the event that all three coins are different be C and the event that the first envelope Jeanne opens contains a dime be D.
</span><span>
$P(C)= \frac{3}{3} \times \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{6}{27} = \frac{2}{9}$

</span><span> $P(D)= \frac{1}{3}$ </span><span>

Therefore, $P(C|D)=\left( \frac{ \frac{2}{9} }{ \frac{1}{3} } \right)= \frac{2}{3}$ </span>

Match each percent amount to its correct value. Tiles 15% of 30 30% of 45 60% of 7 23% of 20 Pairs 13.5 arrowBoth 4.5 arrowBoth

Over [174]

15% of 30....turn ur percent to a decimal...." of " means multiply
0.15(30) = 4.5

30% of 45.....set it up the same way as before
0.30(45) = 13.5

60% of 7
0.60(7) = 4.2

23% of 20
0.23(20) = 4.6

Annie is creating a stencil for her artwork using a coordinate plane. The beginning of the left edge of the stencil falls at (2,

taurus [48]

Answer:

(A)(12, 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The beginning of the left edge of the stencil falls at (2, −1).

A point, say Q on the stencil is at (4, 1).

Point Q divides the stencil into the ratio 1:4.

We are required to find the end of the stencil.

Mathematically, Point Q divides the stencil internally in the ratio 1:4.

For internal division of a line with beginning point $(x_1,y_1)$ and end point $(x_2,y_2)$ in the ratio m:n, we use the formula

$Q(x,y)=(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n} ,\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n} )$

$(x_1,y_1)=(2, -1)$ , $(x_2,y_2)=?$ , Q(x,y)=(4,1), m:n=1:4

Therefore:

$(4,1)=(\dfrac{1x_2+4*2}{1+4} ,\dfrac{1y_2+4*-1}{1+4} )\\(4,1)=(\dfrac{x_2+8}{5} ,\dfrac{y_2-4}{5} )\\$Therefore:\\\dfrac{x_2+8}{5}=4\\x_2+8=4X5\\x_2=20-8=12\\$Similarly\\\dfrac{y_2-4}{5}=1\\y_2-4=5\\y_2=4+5=9\\(x_2,y_2)=(12,9)$

The correct option is A.
