3. A student wrote a book which she plans to sell online for $13 per copy. Her total expenses were $85. Which function can be used to find the profit in dollars, d, when the student sells C, copies of the book?​

Answers

Answer:

Her profit in dollars is;

d = 13c - 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically,

profit = sales - cost price

She sells at $13 per copy

so for c copies, total sales amount will be 13 * c= $13c

So the profit d in dollars will be;

d = 13c - 85

Sum of Angles
Find the value of x and the measure of every angle.
It is Geometry

Answers

Answer:

If the sum of a triangle equals 180 degrees we’ll go off of that by doing this.

(7x+8)+(5x+2)+(7x-1)=180
7x+8+5x+2+7x-1=180
19x+9=180
19x=180-9
19x=171
19x/19=171/19
x=9

With that let’s find each angle,

I’ll just label them A, B, C.

A: (7x+8)
7(9)+8
63+8=71

B: (7x-1)
7(9)-1
63-1=62

C: (5x+2)
5(9)+2
45+2=47

71+62+47=180

Answers

Answer: your Answer is $75 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

$25 + $50 = $75

Answer:

[tex]C = 50x + 25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The $50 charge can be interpreted as the slope, as it varies based on the amount of time the service takes. The $25 can be interpreted as the y-intercept, as you'll get charged $25 no matter how long the service takes. Thus, we can plug these values into the slope-intercept form equation.

[tex]y = mx + b\\C = 50x + 25[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the two equations add up to 180 because they are a linear pair.

x + 56 + x + 146 = 180 (collect like terms)

2x + 202 = 180 (subtract 202 on both sides)

2x = -22 (divide by 2 on both sides)

x = -11

Hope this helps ya!!

X+56+x+146=180 (Because they are linear pair and are equal to 180 degrees)

(Combine like terms)

2x+202=180 (Subtract 202 to both sides because we want the x isolated)

2x+202=180
-202 -202
2x=-22 (Divide)
2 2
X=-11
Hope this helps :D

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' represent the actual salary.

|x - 25,000| <= 1800

- 1,800 <= x - 25,000 <= 1,800

25,000 - 1,800 <= x <= 25,000 + 1,800

23,200 <= x <= 26,800

The range of the salary is the closed interval [23,200, 26,800].

D. x ≥ 5

Thank you!

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the compound inequality:

[tex]5x+7\leq-3 \text{ or } 3x-4\geq 11[/tex]

Since this is an “OR” inequality, we can solve each inequality individually. So:

1)

We have:

[tex]5x+7\leq-3[/tex]

Subtract 7 from both sides:

[tex]5x\leq -10[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5:

[tex]x\leq-2[/tex]

So, the first solution is above.

2)

We have:

[tex]3x-4\geq 11[/tex]

Add 4 to both sides:

[tex]3x\geq15[/tex]

Divide both side by 3:

[tex]x\geq5[/tex]

Our second solution is above.

Therefore, our solution is:

[tex]x\leq -2 \text{ or } x\geq5[/tex]

Since our original inequality is “OR,” our solution set remains an “OR.”

Hence, our answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer claims that the mean lifetime of its lithium batteries is 1200 hours. A homeowner selects 25 of these batteries and finds the mean lifetime to be 1180 hours with a standard deviation of 80 hours. Test the manufacturer's claim. Use ΅ = 0.05. Round the test statistic to the nearest thousandth.

Answers

Answer:

Since p is > α we fail to reject the Null as the result is not significant at α = 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean lifetime (m) = 1200

Sample size (n) = 25

Sample mean (x) = 1180

Standard deviation (s) = 80

α = 0.05

The null hypothesis :

H0 : m = 1200

Alternative hypothesis : m ≠1200

The t statistic :

(x - m) / (s/√n)

(1180 - 1200) / (80 / √25)

-20 / (80/5)

= - 1.250

P value = 0.10565 ( p value calculator)

Reject Null hypothesis if p > α

At α = 0.05

Since p is > α we fail to reject the Null as the result is not significant at α = 0.05

(b) What is the diameter of a human hair written in scientific notation?

• [Please make sure to include your units]

(c) In comparing the measurements in Parts (a) and (b), what else must be done before a comparison is made?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The average distance from the sun to the planet Venus is about 108,000,000 km. The diameter of a human hair is about 0.0025 mm.

(a) In scientifc notation, the distance from the Sun to Venus will be :

There are 8 numbers before 1. It means

d = 1.08 × 10⁸ km

(b) In scientific notation, the diameter of a human hair will be :

There are 3 numbers after decimal. It means

D = 2.5× 10⁻³ mm

(c) Before comparing two measurements, both values must be converted into the same units.

Since, 1 mm = 10⁻⁶ km

D = 2.5× 10⁻³ × 10⁻⁶ km

= 2.5 × 10⁻⁹ km

For comparison divide the distance from the Sun to Venus and the diameter of a human hair.

[tex]C=\dfrac{1.08\times 10^8\ km}{2.5\times 10^{-9}\ km}\\\\=4.32\times 10^{16}[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.
