Some plumbers charge a base rate plus an hourly rate for their services. The rates of two plumbers are shown in the table.


Base Rate Hourly Rate
Plumber A $35.00 $15.00
Plumber B $40.00 $12.00

To the nearest minute, at what amount of time does Plumber A become more expensive than Plumber B?

Answers

Answer 1
Hi! Plumber A - Base Rate = $35.00 and Hourly = $15.00
Plumber B - Base Rate = $40.00 and Hourly = $12.00

$35.00 + $15.00 + $15.00 = $65
$40.00 + 12.00 + $12.00 = $64

Plumber A become more expensive than Plumber B after two hours.
Answer 2

x = 1.67 hours is the nearest time when Plumer B becomes more expensive than plumber B.

What is the equation?

The equation is the relationship between variables and is represented as y = ax+b is an example of a polynomial equation.

Let the hours be x and the hourly rate is y.
Now the data given in the table is calibrated into the equation.
The equation for A,
y = 15x + 35    - - - - - (1)
The equation for B,
y = 12x + 40    - - - - - - (2)

Solving equations 1 and 2
15x + 35 = 12x + 40
3x = 5
x = 5/3
x = 1.67 hour
Now put it on equation 2 and equation 1
y(B) = 12 * 1.68 + 40
y (B)= $60.1
y(A) = 12 *1.68 + 35
y(A) = $60.2


Thus, x = 1.67 hours is the nearest time when Plumer B becomes more expensive than plumber B.

Answer:

  -203.1875

Step-by-step explanation:

The ends of the interval are ...

  (-4, g(-4)) = (-4, 1023 15/16)

  (1, g(1)) = (1, 8)

The average rate of change is the slope of the line between these two points:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (8 -(1023 15/16))/(1 -(-4)) = (-1015 15/16)/5 = -203 3/16

The average rate of change on the interval is -203 3/16.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{3x-2}{7}-\frac{5x-8}{4}=\frac{1}{14}[/tex]

In order to factor an integer, we need to divide it by the ascending sequence of primes 2, 3, 5.

The number of times that each prime divides the original integer becomes its exponent in the final result.

In here,  Prime number 2 to the power of 2 equals 4.

[tex]\frac{3x-2}{7}-\frac{5x-8}{2^{2} }=\frac{1}{14}[/tex]

First, We need to add fractions-

Rule:-

[tex]\frac{A}{B} +\frac{C}{D} =\frac{\frac{LCD}{B}+\frac{LCD}{D}C }{LCD}[/tex]

Task: Population of a Species

The population of a species in the wild in Asia has been decreasing exponentially since 1980. This function represents the wild population of the species t years after 1980: W(t)=20000(0.95)t.

The Wildlife Refuge Foundation noticed this trend before 1980
and decided to try to help reduce the population decline by
breeding the species in captivity. The graph shows the number
of these animals that have been born in captivity since 1980.

(Note: The function W(t) and the graph are not the same function!)

The probability that a patient recovers from a disease is 0.3.
If 6 people are known to have contacted the disease, what is the probability that at least 4 survive? ​

Answers

Answer:

0.07047

Step-by-step explanation:

at least 4 people survive is

4 people survive and 2 don't +

5 people survive and 1 doesn't +

all 6 people survive

the probability of 4 people to survive is the product of the individual probabilities :

0.3×0.3×0.3×0.3 = 0.3⁴ = 0.0081

times the probability 2 don't survive

0.7×0.7 = 0.49

0.0081×0.49 = 0.003969

now, the chance that 4 out of 6 survive is that probabilty times how many times we can select 4 out of 6.

to select 4 out of 6 is

[tex] \binom{6}{4} [/tex]

= 6! / (4! × (6-4)!) = 6! / (4! × 2!) = 6×5/2 = 30/2 = 15

so, the probability of having 4 survivors is

15×0.003969 = 0.059535

the probability of 5 people surviving is 0.3⁵ times one not

0.3⁵×0.7 = 0.001701

we have 6 over 5 combinations to pick 5 out of 6 = 6.

so, in total for 5 survivors we get

6×0.001701 = 0.010206

and the probabilty of all 6 surviving is

0.3⁶ = 0.000729

so, the probability of at least 4 out of 6 surviving is

0.059535 +

0.010206 +

0.000729

What are all possible integer solutions for b & p in the equation?

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

7+sqrt(7) is an irrational number

Answer:

p = 8 when b = 16 and p = -8 when

b = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + bx + 64 = x² + 2px + p²

Cancel x² on both sides,

bx + 64 = 2px +

Now, by comparing both sides, you'll get the following equations,

1. b = 2p

2. = 64

From equation (2),

p = ±64

= 8 or -8

Substitute p = 8 and p = -8 into equation (1),

b = 2(8) and b = 2(-8)

b = 2(8) and b = 2(-8) = 16 = -16

Therefore, p = 8 when b = 16 and p = -8 when

b = -16
