Regina’s teacher recently gave her a homework assignment on solving equations. Since she has been thinking about saving for a new cell phone, she decided to use the assignment as an opportunity to model a savings plan.

She created this equation to model the situation. In it, y represents the total amount saved for the new cell phone, 74 is the amount of money she has now, 40 is the amount of money she saves each month for the phone, and x represents the number of months since she started saving a regular amount:

74 + 40x = y.

She then solved the equation to determine how many months she’d need to save to have enough to purchase the new cell phone. Review her work, and select the error.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

In her solution, there is an error in step 4. She used the multiplication property of equality but its a division property.

Given that,
A solution is given, we have to review the solution and mark the steps that contain an error.

What is arithmetic?

In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements.

Here,

In the solution, every step is accurate and correct, except for step 4. she divided the equality by 40 and she wrote the step as multiplication property of equality which is wrong the correct statement for step 4 is the division property of equality.

Thus, in her solution, there is an error in step 4. She used the multiplication property of equality but its a division property.

Given the weekly demand curve of a local wine producer is p= 50-0.1q, and that the total cost function is c= 1500+ 10q, where q bottles are produced each day and sold at a price of $p per unit. a)Express the weekly profit as a function of price.b) at what price must a bottle of wine be sold to realise maximum profit. c) what is the maximum profit that ca be made by the producer

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

a) To express the weekly profit as a function of price

Cost =C(q) = 1500 + 10q

Revenue = p×q = (50 − 0.1q)×q = 50q - 0.1q²

Revenue = 50q - 0.1q²

Weekly profit = Revenue - Cost

P(q) = (50q -0.1q²) - (1500 + 10q)

P(q)= -0.1 q² + 40 q - 1500  

However, q = 500 - 10 p using p = 50 − 0.1q

P= -0.1 (500 - 10 p)² + 40 (500 - 10 p) - 1500

P= -10 p² + 600 p - 6500

b)

The price at which the bottle of the wine must be sold to realise a maximum profit can be determined by finding the derivative and then set it to 0  

P' = 0

= -20p+600 = 0

20p = 600

p = 600/20

p = $30

c)

The maximum profit that can be made by the producer is:

P= -10(30)² + 600(30) - 6500

P = - 9000 + 18000 - 6500

P = $2500

Answers

Answer:

4 [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding fractions, you want to make the denominators of the fraction the same. To do this, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator of 3/4 by 3. When changing either a denominator or numerator in a fraction, you must do the same thing to the numerator as the denominator.

Now we have [tex]\frac{3\cdot3}{4\cdot3} = \frac{9}{12}[/tex]. To add 9/12 and 5/12, we keep the denominator the same, and add the numerators, getting [tex]\frac{9+5}{12} =\frac{14}{12}[/tex]. This is greater than 1, so we can take 12/12 from 14/12, and make it [tex]1 \frac{2}{12}[/tex]. If we then add 3, we get [tex]4 \frac{2}{12}[/tex], which simplifies to [tex]4 \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

equation:

Answers

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (9-5)/(3-2)

m = 4

Substitute the values in y= mx + c,

5 = (4)(2) + c

5 = 8 + c

c = -3

Thus, the equation is y= 4x -3

The y intercept is -3 and the slope of line is 4 .

Then the equation of line will be : y= 4x -3

Given,

Points on x and y axis .

Standard equation of line :

y = mx + c

m = slope of line

c = y intercept

Now

Firstly find out the slope of line ,

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)\

m = (9-5)/(3-2)

m = 4

Now to calculate the value of y intercept

Substitute the values in y= mx + c,

5 = (4)(2) + c

5 = 8 + c

c = -3

Thus, the equation is m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

[tex]July = 2,643[/tex]

[tex]August = 2,287[/tex]

[tex]Expected = 9,525[/tex]

Required

Number of cans in September

First, we need to determine the total collected can from July to August.

[tex]Total = 1898 + 2643 + 2287[/tex]

[tex]Total = 6828[/tex]

September is then calculated as follows:

[tex]September = 9525 - 6828[/tex]

[tex]September = 2697[/tex]

solve and graph the inequality: 8-4(x-1) Bit transmission errors between computers sometimes occur, where one computer sends a 0 but the other computer receives a 1 (or vice versa). Because of this, the computer sending a message repeats each bit three times, so a 0 is sent as 000 and a 1 as 111. The receiving computer "decodes" each triplet by majority rule: whichever number, 0 or 1, appears more often in a triplet is declared to be the intended bit. For example, both 000 and 100 are decoded as 0, while 101 and 011 are decoded as 1. Suppose that 6% of bits are switched (0 to 1, or 1 to 0) during transmission between two particular computers, and that these errors occur independently during transmission.(a) Find the probability that a triplet is decoded incorrectly by the receiving computer.(b) Using your answer to part (a), explain how using triplets reduces communication errors.(c) How does your answer to part (a) change if each bit is repeated five times (instead of three)?(d) Imagine a 25 kilobit message (i.e., one requiring 25,000 bits to send).

The conflict has already claimed more than 500,000 lives and displaced huge numbers of people. Among these were at least 20,000 children, mostly boys, between 7 and 17 years of age who were separated from their families. These lost boys of the Sudan trekked enormous distances over a vast unforgiving wilderness, seeking refuge from the fighting. Hungry, frightened and weakened by sleeplessness and disease, they crossed from the Sudan into Ethiopia and back, with many dying along the way.
