Emir flew home from vacation with a heavy bag. With the first airline he flew, Emir had to pay $20 to check his bag, plus $10 for every pound that his bag was over the weight limit. The next flight was with another airline that had the same weight limit. Emir had to pay $5 per pound that his bag was over the weight limit, in addition to the checked bag fee of $30. By coincidence, the fees ended up being the same with both airlines. How large was each airline's fee?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$27.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = pound over weight limit

Airline 1 = 20 + 10x

Airline 2 = 5 + 30x

Equate the fees

20 + 10x = 5 + 30x

20 - 5 = 30x - 10x

15 = 20x

x = 15/20

x = 0.75 pounds

How large was each airline's fee?

Airline 1 = 20 + 10x

= 20 + 10(0.75)

= 20 + 7.5

= $27.5

Airline 2 = 5 + 30x

= 5 + 30(0.75)

= 5 + 22.5

= $27.5

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point
(
7
,
2
)
(7,2) and has a slope of
1
1?

Answers

Answer:

(y+2)= -3(x-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope-intercept formula to write this equation. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is:  

y = m x + b

 Where  m  is the slope and  b  is the y-intercept value.

We can substitute the slope into the formula giving:

y = − 3 x + b

Next, we can substitute the values from the points in the problem for  x  and  y  and solve for  b :

− 2 = ( − 3x 7 ) + b  

− 2 =  − 21 + b

21 − 2 = 21  − 21 + b

 19 = 0 + b

19 = b

We can now substitute the slope from the problem and the value for  b  we calculated into the formula to write the equation.

y = − 3 x + 19

Another process is to use the point-slope formula. The point-slope formula states:

 ( y − y 1 ) = m ( x − x 1 )

 Where  m  is the slope and  ( x 1 , y1 )  is a point the line passes through.

Substituting the slope and values from the points in the problem gives:

(y − − 2 ) = − 3 (x-7)

( y + 2 ) =  − 3 ( x − 7 )

A polling firm wants to use a one-sample z interval to estimate what proportion of voters in a country plan on
voting for a certain candidate. They want the margin of error to be no more than £3% at 99% confidence.
What is the smallest sample size required to obtain the desired margin of error?

Answers

Answer:

1844

Step-by-step explanation:

For polling firm survey on voters, the smallest sample size which is required to obtain the desired margin of error, is 1850.

What is margin of error?

The probability or the chances of error while choosing or calculating a sample in a survey is called the margin of error.

[tex]MOE=z\times\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Here, z is the critical value and n is the sample size.

Here, a polling firm wants to use a one-sample z interval to estimate, the number of proportion of voters in a country plan on voting for a certain candidate.

The margin of error for this test is 3% or 0.03 and the confidence interval is 99 percent.

The z value on the confidence interval of 99 percent is 2.576. Here, the standard deviation for this survey is 50 percent, or 0.50.

Put the value in the above formula as,

[tex]0.03=(2.576)\times\dfrac{0.5}{\sqrt{n}}\\n\approx1850[/tex]

Hence, for polling firm survey on voters, the smallest sample size which is required to obtain the desired margin of error, is 1850.

abdel purchased a candy bar for $1.47 and ice cream for $3.48. How much change did he receive if he paid a ten-dollar bill.

Answers

1.47+3.48=4.95
10-4.95=5.05
Answer:
$5.05 is the change Abdel will receive if paid by a ten dollar bill.


Candy bar price plus ice cream price = the total amount / $3.48 + $1.47 = $4.95
Ten dollar bill subtracted by the total amount = the change / $10 - $4.95 = $5.05

[tex]HI=HJ=\sqrt{30}[/tex]units

[tex]\angle I=45^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

[tex]\angle J=45^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]JI=2\sqrt{15}[/tex]units

We know that

[tex]sin\theta=\frac{Perpendicular\;side}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]sin45=\frac{HI}{2\sqrt{15}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\times 2\sqrt{15}=HI[/tex]

Where [tex]sin45^{\circ}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2\sqrt{15}\times \sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}\times \sqrt{2}}=HI[/tex]

By using rationalization

[tex]HI=\sqrt{30}[/tex] units

[tex]Cos45=\frac{HJ}{2\sqrt{15}}[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]cos\theta=\frac{base}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\times 2\sqrt{15}=HJ[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2\sqrt{15}\times \sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}\times \sqrt{2}}=HJ[/tex]

[tex]HJ=\sqrt{30}[/tex] units

When two sides are equal then angle made by two equal sides are equal

Therefore,

June was thinking of a number. June subtracts 5.6 from the number and gets an answer of 76.9. Form an equation with x from the information.

Answers

Answer: x - 5.6 = 76.9

Step-by-step explanation:

The number June thought of would give a result of 76.9 if 5.6 were subtracted from it.

Assume that number is x.

If you subtract 5.6 from x, you would get 76.9.

Equation is therefore:

x - 5.6 = 76.9

Solving for x would make x:

x - 5.6 = 76.9

x = 76.9 + 5.6

x = 82.5
