We want to find the equation for the graphed rational function. Notice that the options are not given, so I will try to find the function only from the graph.
The function is:
[tex]f(x) = \frac{(x - 5)}{x - 1}[/tex]
How to analyze the graph of a rational function?The first thing that we can see in the graph is that we have vertical asymptotes at x = 1.
The one in the positive side (of the x range) goes to negative infinity, while the other goes to positive infinity, then the equation will be something like:
[tex]f(x) = \frac{something}{x - 1}[/tex]
Such that the asymptotes are caused when the denominator is equal to zero.
We can see that we also have a horizontal asymptote at y = 1.
This means that, as x tends to infinity, our function will tend to 1, so we have something like:
[tex]f(x) = \frac{(x + b)}{x - 1}[/tex]
The horizontal asymptote is equal to the ratio of the leading coefficients when both polynomials have the same degree, like here, so we can take the two leading coefficients equal to 1, such that:
y = 1/1 = 1
To find the value of b, we evaluate the function in 0:
[tex]f(0) = \frac{b}{-1} = -b[/tex]
And if you look at the graph, you can see that at x = 0 we have:
f(0) = 5
then b = -5
So the function is:
[tex]f(x) = \frac{(x - 5)}{x - 1}[/tex]

a. What is the probability that this couple spends 45 dollars or more?
b. Suppose that the restaurant is currently running a promotion with a 10% discount if the total amount spent by a table is 45 dollars or more. What is expected total amount the couple actually has to pay?
Answers
Using the probability table, it is found that:
a) There is a 0.25 = 25% probability that this couple spends 45 dollars or more. b) The expected amount the couple actually has to pay is $36.85.Item a:
To find the probabilities involving the total cost, we have to add the variables X and Y from the table, then:
[tex]P(X = 30) = P(X = 15|Y = 15) = 0.2[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 35) = P(X = 15|Y = 20) + P(X = 20|Y = 15) = 0.15 + 0.15 = 0.3[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 40) = P(X = 15|Y = 25) + P(X = 20|Y = 20) + P(X = 25|Y = 15) = 0.05 + 0.15 + 0.05 = 0.25[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 45) = P(X = 20|Y = 25) + P(X = 25|Y = 20) = 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.2[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 50) = P(X = 25|Y = 25) = 0.05[/tex]
The probability involving values of 45 or more is:
[tex]P(X \geq 45) = P(X = 45) + P(X = 50) = 0.2 + 0.05 = 0.25[/tex]
0.25 = 25% probability that this couple spends 45 dollars or more.
Item b:
For a discrete distribution, the expected value is the sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability, hence, involving the 10% discount for prices above $45:
[tex]E(X) = 0.2(30) + 0.3(35) + 0.25(40) + 0.9[0.2(45) + 0.05(50)] = 36.85[/tex]
The expected amount the couple actually has to pay is $36.85

the price of 10 chairs is equal to that of 4 tables. the price of 15 chairs and two tables together is 4000$ the total price ( in $) of a chair and table is?
Answers
Answer:
$700 for a chair and a table
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t and c represent the price of a table and a chair, respectively. The given relations are ...
10c = 4t
15c +2t = $4000
Divide the first equation by 2 and substitute for 2t:
5c = 2t
15c +5c = $4000
20c = $4000
c = $200
t = 5c/2 = 5($200)/2 = $500
The total price of a chair and a table is ...
$200 +500 = $700 . . . . price of a chair and a table

Lara made the table below of the predicted values for h(t), the height, in meters, of a penny t seconds after it is dropped off of the back of the bleachers.
A 2-column table with 9 rows titled Height of Penny over Time. The first column is labeled t with entries 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8. The second column is labeled h(t) with entries 2, 1.951, 1.804, 1.559, 1.216, 0.775, 0.236, negative 0.401, negative 1.136.
To the nearest tenth of a second, how much time would it take the penny to hit the ground?
0.5 seconds
0.6 seconds
0.7 seconds
0.8 seconds
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
as the chart is broken into steps with the same precision we're looking for. Just choose the one where height is closest to zero or 0.6 s
To do it mathematically
The equation is
h = 2 - ½gt²
to find g, plug in a time and height
0.236 = 2 - ½g(0.6²)
g = 9.8 m/s
check another one just to be sure
1.559 = 2 - ½(9.8)0.3²
1.559 = 1.559
now plug in zero elevation with an unknown time
0 = 2 - ½(9.8)(t²)
-2 = - ½(9.8)(t²)
t² = 4/9.8
t = 0.6388765...
t = 0.6 s
The time it takes for the penny to hit the ground is about 0.6 seconds.
Option B is the correct answer.
What is an equation of a line?The equation of a line is given by:
y = mx + c
where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept.
Example:
The slope of the line y = 2x + 3 is 2.
The slope of a line that passes through (1, 2) and (2, 3) is 1.
We have,
To determine the time it takes for the penny to hit the ground, we need to find the point where the height of the penny is equal to zero.
Looking at the table,
We can see that the height of the penny is negative when t = 0.7 and becomes more negative for larger values of t.
So the penny must hit the ground between t = 0.6 and t = 0.7 seconds.
Now,
We can use linear interpolation to estimate the time at which the height of the penny is zero by finding the equation of the line that passes through the two points closest to zero on the table, namely (0.6, 0.775) and (0.7, -0.401).
So,
The slope of the line passing through these points.
= (change in height) / (change in time)
= (-0.401 - 0.775) / (0.7 - 0.6)
= -1.176
The equation of the line passing through these points.
y - 0.775 = -1.176(x - 0.6)
Simplifying
y = -1.176x + 1.438
Setting y to zero and solving for x.
0 = -1.176x + 1.438
x = 1.438 / 1.176
x ≈ 1.22
Therefore,
To the nearest tenth of a second, the time it takes for the penny to hit the ground is about 0.6 seconds.

A flight from Boston to London took only 5 hours because of a strong tailwind. The flight back to Boston against the same wind took 6 hours. What was the speed of the wind if the speed of the plane in still air is 550 mph?
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
let v is the speed of the wind,
the equation of the speed:
(550 + v ) × 5 = (550 - v) × 6
2750 +5v = 3300 - 6v
11v = 3300 - 2750
11v = 550
v = 550/11
v = 50
therefore, the speed of the wind =
50 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
v = speed of the wind5(550 + v) = 6(550 - v)
2.750 + 5v = 3.330 - 6v
5v + 6v = 3.300 - 2.750
11v = 550
v = 550 ÷ 11
v = 50mph

B) [tex]-\frac{a}{-b}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The value [tex]-\frac{-a}{b}[/tex] is the same as [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex] since the negatives cancel out to make a positive.
Option A is incorrect since the overall value of the term would be negative. Option B however is correct since there will not be a negative value in the denominator of a fraction and thus it cancels out with the negative in front of the fraction to produce the value of [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex] which is the same as the expression given in the question, thus it is option B.

7. (2 - x)(1 + 3x)
8. (5b - 3c)(7b - 3c)
Answers
Answer:
All closed.
Addition, subtraction as well as multiplication of polynomials result into another polynomial. Therefore, the set of polynomials is closed under addition, subtraction and multiplication.
Open polynomial set is (x² + x - 4) - (x² + x + 8)
Closed polynomial sets are (2 - x)(1 + 3x) and (5b - 3c)(7b - 3c)
What is polynomial?A polynomial is an expression consisting of variables and their coefficients, operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and positive-integer powers of variables are involved in polynomial. If the result of a polynomial set applying different operations is polynomial then it is closed under that operation.
Given, polynomial sets
(x² + x - 4) - (x² + x + 8)
Applying subtraction operation
x² + x - 4 - x² - x - 8
Subtracting like terms
-12
The result is integer, it is open polynomial set
(2 - x)(1 + 3x)
Applying multiplication operation
2 - x - x - 3x²
= 2 - 2x - 3x²
The result is polynomial, it is closed polynomial set
(5b - 3c)(7b - 3c)
Applying multiplication operation
35b² - 15bc - 21bc + 9c²
= 35b² - 36bc + 9c²
The result is polynomial, it is closed polynomial set
Hence, (x² + x - 4) - (x² + x + 8) is an open polynomial set
(2 - x)(1 + 3x) and (5b - 3c)(7b - 3c) are closed polynomial sets.
