Joylin is writing an equation to model the proportional relationship between y, the total cost in dollars of downloading videos

from a website, and x, the number of videos downloaded. She knows that the total cost to download 3 videos was $12. Her work to find the equation is shown below. Joylin’s Work Step 1 x=3/12=0.25 Step 2 y=0.25x Where did Joylin make her first error? Joylin divided 3 and 12 instead of multiplying the two numbers. Joylin computed the decimal equivalent of 3/12 incorrectly. Joylin used 0.25 as the coefficient of x instead of a product of x and y. Joylin switched the numerator and the denominator when she found k.

Joylin is writing an equation to model the proportional relationship between y, the total cost in dollars of downloading videos from a website, and x, the number of videos downloaded. She knows that the total cost to download 3 videos was $12. Her work to find the equation is shown below. Joylin’s Work Step 1 x=3/12=0.25 Step 2 y=0.25x Where did Joylin make her first error? Joylin divided 3 and 12 instead of multiplying the two numbers. Joylin computed the decimal equivalent of 3/12 incorrectly. Joylin used 0.25 as the coefficient of x instead of a product of x and y. Joylin switched the numerator and the denominator when she found k.

Solution:


Joylin switched the numerator and the denominator when she found k.

Joylin should divide 12/3 and not 3/12. As, y is total cost and x is number of videos.

For x=1, number of videos=1, y,or total cost=1*4=4,

For x=2,y=2*4=8

For x=3, y=3*4=12

So, the constant, k=4

So, Answer: Option (D)

Joylin switched the numerator and the denominator when she found k.

Pluto's distance P(t)P(t)P, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis (in billions of kilometers) from the sun as a function of tim
Xelga [282]

Answer: P(t) = 1.25.sin(\frac{\pi}{3}.t) + 5.65

Step-by-step explanation: A motion repeating itself in a fixed time period is a periodic motion and can be modeled by the functions:

y = A.sin(B.t - C) + D or y = Acos(B.t - C) + D

where:

A is amplitude A=|A|

B is related to the period by: T = \frac{2.\pi}{B}

C is the phase shift or horizontal shift: \frac{C}{B}

D is the vertical shift

In this question, the motion of Pluto is modeled by a sine function and doesn't have phase shift, C = 0.

<u>Amplitude</u>:

a = \frac{largest - smallest}{2}

At t=0, Pluto is the farthest from the sun, a distance 6.9 billions km away. At t=66, it is closest to the star, P(66) = 4.4 billions km. Then:

a = \frac{6.9-4.4}{2}

a = 1.25

<u>b</u>

A time period for Pluto is T=66 years:

66 = \frac{2.\pi}{b}

b = \frac{\pi}{33}

<u>Vertical</u> <u>Shift</u>

It can be calculated as:

d = \frac{largest+smallest}{2}

d = \frac{6.9+4.4}{2}

d = 5.65

Knowing a, b and d, substitute in the equivalent positions and find P(t).

P(t) = a.sin(b.t) + d

P(t) = 1.25.sin(\frac{\pi}{3}.t) + 5.65

The Pluto's distance from the sun as a function of time is

P(t) = 1.25.sin(\frac{\pi}{3}.t) + 5.65

1. Walking to improve health. In a study investigating a link between walking and improved health (Social Science &amp; Medicine
lora16 [44]

Answer:

a) We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true average number of days in the past month that adults walked for the purpose of health or recreation is lower than 5.5 days (a;ternative hypothesis) , the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 5.5  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 5.5  

b) For this case since we want to determine if the true mean is lower than an specified value is a one tailed test

c) For this case the significance level is given \alpha=0.01 and we want to find the critical value, so we need to find a critical value on the normal standard distribution who accumulate 0.01 of the area on the right tail and if we use excel or a table we got:

z_{cric}= -2.326

And the rejection zone would be: (\infty ,-2.326)

And the region is on the figure attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a: State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true average number of days in the past month that adults walked for the purpose of health or recreation is lower than 5.5 days (a;ternative hypothesis) , the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 5.5  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 5.5  

Part b

For this case since we want to determine if the true mean is lower than an specified value is a one tailed test

Part c

For this case the significance level is given \alpha=0.01and we want to find the critical value, so we need to find a critical value on the normal standard distribution who accumulate 0.01 of the area on the right tail and if we use excel or a table we got:

z_{cric}= -2.326

And the rejection zone would be: (\infty ,-2.326)

A print shop purchases a new printer for $25,000. The equipment depreciates at a rate of 5% each year. The relationship between
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The value of the printer on the first year was $ 23,750.00. On the second year it was $ 22,562.5. On the third year it was $ 21,434.38.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the printer depreciates at a rate of 5% per year, I believe the stated equation is miss typed. Therefore I'll answer this with the correct equation that would represent that setting:

y(x) = 25,000*0.95^x

In the first year the value of the printer is:

y(1) = 25,000*0.95^1 = 23,750

On the second year the value of the printer is:

y(2) = 25,000*0.95^2 = 22,562.5\\

On the third year the value of the printer is:

y(3) = 25,000*0.95^3 = 21,434.38\\

The value of the printer on the first year was $ 23,750.00. On the second year it was $ 22,562.5. On the third year it was $ 21,434.38.
