Answer:

#2, her earnings will increase by $20 for each door knocked.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the only variable used to determine earnings is the number of doors knocked, you can eliminate options 1 and 3 as they are based on the number of books sold, which is not a part of the equation.

That leaves the only options being the increase of $20 or $50 for each door knocked. As the x value us multiplied by 20, the correct answer is #2, her earnings will increase by $20 for each door knocked.

You can also check this by plugging in values:

Assume 10 doors are knocked:

E(10) = 20(10)-50 = 200-50 = 150

Assume 11 doors (1 more door) is knocked:

E(11) = 20(11)-50 = 220-50 = 170

The increase from 1 door is $20.

An electrician earns 100 dollars for a project installing light fixtures. She must pay for the light fixtures herself and they c
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

y = 100 - 2.5 x is the equation that represents her total profit from

the project

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

1. An electrician earns 100 dollars for a project installing light fixtures

2. She must pay for the light fixtures herself and they cost 2 dollars

   and 50 cents each

3. x represent the number of light fixtures and y represent her

  total profit

Her profit is the amount of money she has left over after paying for

the light fixtures

∵ The cost of each light fixtures is 2 dollars and 50 cents

- Let us change the cents to dollar

∵ $1 = 100 cents

∴ 50 cents =  dollar

∴ 2 dollars and 50 cents = $2.5

∵ Her profit = The money she earns - The money she pays

∴ The cost of each light fixtures = $2.5

∵ She installs x light fixtures

∴ She pays 2.5 x dollar

∵ She earns $ 100 for installing x light fixtures

∵ Her profit is $y

∴ y = 100 - 2.5 x

y = 100 - 2.5 x is the equation that represents her total profit from

the project

There are three choices of jellybeans - grape ,cherry and orange. if the probability of getting a grape is 3/10 and the probabil
muminat

When looking at probabilities, two ideas are always true.

1) Any probability is more than 0.

2) The sum of all the probabilites is 1.

Idea #2 works here. (For example, think of how a die has six things and the probability of each is 1/6. So 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 1.) Let G = the probability of grape, C = probability of cherry and O = the probability of orange. From Idea #2, G + C + O = 1. Since we know G and C, then

3/10 + 1/5 + O = 1.

3/10 + 2/10 + O = 1

5/10 + O = 1

O = 5/10

Thus, the probability of an orange jelly bean is 5/10 = 1/2.
