Suppose the function F(c) represents the earnings of a volleyball team from selling c cupcakes. They are selling each cupcake fo

r $2 each.
Which variable represents the domain? Interpret what it is in context.

Do positive or negative (or both) values for the input make sense in the context? Describe an appropriate domain of this function. Specify the upper limit and the lower limit.

Is it possible for the team to earn $50.50?

Please! I need help!

Answer:

c (no. of cupcakes)

No, only positive values

Appropriate domain: while numbers

Lower limit: 0, upper limit: positive infinity

Not possible

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is the set of inputs/independent variable

Which in this case is no. of cupcakes sold

The domain can take values which are whole numbers,

0, 1, 2,..... infinity

F(c) = 50.50

2c = 50.50

c = 25.25 (not possible)

Answer:

The variable c represents the domain as it is the independent variable.

The domain of the function F(c) is given by c ≥ 0.

So, only positive values for the input make sense.

The upper limit of the domain is +∞ and lower limit is 0.

It is not possible for the team to earn $50.50 as it will be only multiple of 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

If F(c) represents the earning of a volleyball team from selling c cupcakes and each cupcake costs $2 each, then the equation that models the situation is

F(c) = 2c ..... (1)

The variable c represents the domain as it is the independent variable. (Answer)

Find two complex numbers that have a sum of i10 a different of -4and a product of -29

lianna [129]

<h2>-2+5i and 2+5i</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the complex numbers be $a+ib\textrm{ and }c+id$ .

Given, sum is $10i$ , difference is $-4$ and product is $-29$ .

$(a+c)+i(b+d)=10i$ ⇒ $a+c=0,b+d=10$

$(a-c)+i(b-d)=-4$ ⇒ $a-c=-4,b-d=0$

$a=-2,c=2,b=5,d=5$

$(a+ib)(c+id)=(-2+5i)(2+5i)=-4-25=-29$

Hence, all three equations are consistent yielding the complex numbers $-2+5i\textrm{ and }2+5i$ .

George tells you that when variables are in the denominator, the equation four over five plus three over x equals one over two b

jeka57 [31]

<span><span><u>Answer</u>
This explanation shows that the equation is solvable and there is not where in the steps we get a zero on the denominator.

</span><span><u>Explanation</u>
</span><span>The equation given in the statement is;
4/5+3/x=1/2
This equation can be solved as follows:
4/5+3/x=1/2
3/x=1/2-4/5=(5-8)/10
3/x= -3/10
Taking the reciprocal on both side of the equation;
x/3=-10/3
Multiplying by 3 both sides we get;
</span><span>x= -10

2x-10/4=3x<br> −10<br> −1<br> 2<br> 11

evablogger [386]

Answer:

<h2>-1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{2x-10}{4}=3x\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\2x-10=12x\qquad\text{subtract}\ 2x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-10=10x\qquad\text{divide both sides by 10}\\\\-1=x\to x=-1$

Suppose an exponential function is fit to a set of data. Which of the following residual plots indicates that this function was

Zina [86]

The correct answer is the choice that you have selected, the third choice.

When, we are looking at the residuals for a regression line, we always want to see the points balance like in the third choice. This means that the equation that we found is right in the middle of the points.

If x varies jointly as y and z, and x = 8 when y = 4 and z = 9, find z when x = 16 and y = 6. 3

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Joint variation says that:

if $x \propto y$ and $x \propto z$

then the equation is in the form of:

$x = kyz$ , where, k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

If x varies jointly as y and z

then by definition we have;

$x=k(yz)$ ......[1]

Solve for k;

when x = 8 , y=4 and z=9

then

Substitute these in [1] we have;

$8=k(4 \cdot 9)$

⇒ $8 = 36k$

Divide both sides by 36 we have;

$\frac{8}{3}=k$

Simplify:

$k = \frac{2}{9}$

⇒ $x = \frac{2}{9}yz$

to find z when x = 16 and y = 6

Substitute these value we have;

$16 = \frac{2}{9} \cdot 6 \cdot z$

⇒ $16 = \frac{12}{9}z$

Multiply both sides by 9 we have;

$144 = 12z$

Divide both sides by 12 we have;

12 = z

or

z = 12

Therefore, the value of z is, 12
