A bus driver makes $14 per hour and works 2,000 hours each year. He
also gets a fee of $50 for each new driver he recruits. If the bus driver
recruits 7 new drivers, what are his total earnings?

Answers

The total earnings of the bus driver in a year is $28500.

A function, according to a technical definition, is a relationship between a set of inputs and a set of potential outputs, where each input is connected to precisely one output.

The bus driver works 2000 hours each year and makes $14 per hour.

If the bus driver gets $50 for each new recruit he hired.

Let y be his total earnings and x be the number of new drivers he recruits.

Then his total earnings can be represented by the function:

y = 14 × 2000 + 50 × x

If the bus driver recruits x = 7 new drivers.

y = 28000 + 50 × 7

y = 28000 + 350

y = $28350

The total earnings of the bus driver are $2850.

if you dilate something by 1 half, what would you have to dilate it to to get it back to the same number.

Answers

If I dilate a number by 1 half, then I will have to dilate it again by 2, to get the same to the same number.

As per the question statement, I dilate a number by 1 half.

We are required to calculate that by what should I dilate the result, to reverb back to the same number that I started with.

To solve this question, first we need to understand the concept of Dilation.

Dilation means to create an Image.If dilation of a number or object enlarges it, then it is known as enlargement.On the other hand, if dilation creates a smaller image, then it is known as Reduction.

Here, since our first dilation of the original number, say "x" reduces it by 1 half, that is, x becomes (x/2),

To get back to x, we will need to multiply (x/2) by 2 again.

[(x/2) * 2] = x.

Therefore, I will need to enlarge our result with a multiplication with 2 to get back to our original number.

Dilation: Dilation means to change the size of an object without changing its shape, where the size of the object may be increased or decreased based on the scale factor.

Answers

1) The equation of line is; y = (1/3)x + 1

2) The x - intercept is -3 and the y-intercept is 2

3) Area of CAT is; 6 sq.units

4) Perimeter is; 14.325 units

What is the equation of the Line?

1) The coordinates of the line AC on the graph are;

A(-3, 0) and C(3, 2)

Thus, equation of line is gotten from the formula;

(y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (y - y₁)/(x - x₁)

(2 - 0)/(3 + 3) = (y - 0)/(x + 3)

2/6 = y/(x + 3)

3y = x + 3

y = (1/3)x + 1

2) The x - intercept is -3 and the y-intercept is 2

3) Area of CAT is;

Area = 1/2 * base * height

Area = 1/2 * 6 * 2

Area = 6 sq.units

4) Perimeter of ACT is gotten by;

AT + CT + AC

AC = √((2 - 0)² + (3 + 3)²)

AC = √40

Thus;

Perimeter = 2 + 6 + √40

Answers

Slope m is positive when

x₁≥ -2

Define slope.

Slope, usually referred to as rise over run, is the "steepness" of the line. By dividing the difference in y values between two points by the difference in x values, we may determine slope. The ratio of the increase in elevation between two points to the run in elevation between those same two points is referred to as the slope. A line that is moving up will have a positive slope, and a line that is moving down will have a negative slope, if you view the line from left to right.

Given,

What is permutation and combination?

Permutations and combinations are the many methods for picking objects from a set to form subsets, usually without replacing them. When the order of selection is a factor, this selection of subsets is known as a permutation; when the order of selection is not a factor, this selection of subsets is known as a combination.

Calculation

I think it is only 10 ways.

Put the teal bead on first. It is the marker bead. This takes care of the rotation aspect.

Then you have 2 lots of 3 identical beads. so that is 6!/(3!3!) ways to place them. Which is 20 ways.

But the bracelet can be flipped so I think this will halve the number of possibilities

For instance  TOOOBBB is the same as TBBBOOO

If this claim is true then one percent of response times take at least [tex]38.077[/tex] minutes.

In the given question,

A fire department in a rural county reports that its response time to fires is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 22 minutes and a standard deviation of 6.9 minutes.

We have to assuming that the claim is true and finding that one percent of response times take at least how many minutes.

From the question,

Mean [tex]\mu=22[/tex] minutes

Standard deviation [tex]\sigma=6.9[/tex] minutes.

Since the given percentage is [tex]1\%[/tex] and percentage means division of [tex]100[/tex] so we can write [tex]1\%=1/100=0.01[/tex]

So the one percent of response times take at least how many minutes is

[tex]P(x\geq a)=0.01[/tex]

[tex]P(x\geq \frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.01[/tex]

As we know the all values. SO putting the values in the formula

[tex]P(x\geq \frac{a-22}{6.9})=0.01\dots\dots[/tex]Equation 1

From the z table

[tex]P(z\geq 2.33)=0.01\dots\dots[/tex]Equation 2

Now from Equation 1 and Equation 2

[tex]\frac{a-22}{6.9}=2.33[/tex]

Multiply by [tex]6.9[/tex] on both side

[tex]\frac{a-22}{6.9}\times6.9=2.33\times6.9[/tex]

Simplifying

[tex]a-22=2.33\times6.9[/tex]

[tex]a-22=16.077[/tex]

Add [tex]22[/tex] on both side

[tex]a-22+22=16.077+22[/tex]

[tex]a=38.077[/tex]

f(x) = -x² - 4x - 1 is the equation of the parabola in the graph.

What is the equation of the graph?

From the graph, the parabola passes through point (-1,2) and has a vertex at point (-2,3).

For a parabola with a vertex (h,k), the general equation is expressed as;

y = a( x - h)² + k

First we find 'a', plug in the given coordinates into the equation.

y = a( x - h)² + k

2 = a( -1 - (-2))² + 3

Solve for a

2 = a( -1 + 2 )² + 3

2 = a( 1 )² + 3

2 = a + 3

a = 2 - 3

a = -1

Now substitute the vertex (-2,3 and a ( -1 ) into the general equation.

y = a( x - h)² + k

y = -1( x - (-2))² + 3

Simplify

y = -1( x + 2 )² + 3

Expand using FOIL method

y = -1( (x + 2)(x+2) ) + 3

y = -1( x² + 2x + 2x + 4 ) + 3

y = -1( x² + 4x + 4 ) + 3

Apply distributive property

y = -x² - 4x - 4 + 3

Add like terms

y = -x² - 4x - 1

f(x) = -x² - 4x - 1

Therefore, the equation of the graph is f(x) = -x² - 4x - 1.

Stephanie is collecting data on the reaction of bacteria to different antibodies. She did not measure the area of the bacteria in the dish when she began the experiment but measured 20 cm2 of bacteria after 1 hour. She continued to measure the bacteria each hour and entered the data in the table. show the explicit function. How much area would you predict the bacteria to have when measured during the 5th hour?

Answers

We take a look at the reduction in the area of the bacteria.

In the first hour, its arae is 20cm2. Following that, it reduces 1.25x, to 16. Then another 1.25x, from 16 to 12.8. And another 1.25x, from 12.8 to 10.24.

So, every hour, the bacteria's area reduces by 1.25x
Therefore, in the 5th hour (prediction probably if this is all a coincidence), the bacteria's area will be : 10.24 : 1.25 = 8.192 cm2.

How to find the volume of spherical rubber ball ?

The capacity of a sphere is its volume. It is the area that the sphere occupies. Cubic measurements for sphere volume include m^3, cm^3, and in^3.

The formula of volume of the sphere is

V = 4/3πr3

given that the radius of spherical rubber ball is 2 3/4

here the radius is given in improper fraction

now convert it into the decimal by following procedure.

first multiply the 2 with 4

2 X 4 = 8

now add 8 to 3. 8 + 3 = 11

The proper fraction of 2 3/4 is 11/4.

so, the decimal number is 2.75

now put r = 2.75 in formula to get the volume.

V = 4/3 X 3.14 X 2.75 X 2.75 X 2.75

V = 1.33333 X 3.15 X 20.7968

V = 87.11 cubic inches

Answer:

V(x) = (1/3)π(x + 4)²(x - 1) orV(x) = (1/3)π(x³ + 7x² + 8x - 16)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Radius of cone = x + 4 units,Height of cone = 5 units less than radius,Volume formula.

Solution

We are given the volume formula:

V = (1/3)πr²h

Find the height:

h = r - 5h = x + 4 - 5 = x - 1
