The phone company offers Rachel 12c per minute for her long distance calls. A discount company called Rachel and offered her long service for 1/2c per minute, but will charge a R46 monthly fee. How many minutes per month must Rachel talk on the phone to make the discount a better deal?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of minutes

the cost function (in c) of the phone company is

cp(x) = 12x

and the cost function of the discount company is

cd(x) = x/2 + 4600 (R46)

we now need to calculate for what x this becomes the same cost :

12x = x/2 + 4600

24x = x + 9200

23x = 9200

x = 400 minutes

she would have to talk for at least 400 minutes long distance per month to make it an even or then better deal.

with 400 minutes being the break-even point.

so, to make it a better deal (not just equal), she has to talk for at least 401 minutes per month.

What formula to use for determining the probability that the mean stress level for a sample of 70 employees will fall above 52? (mean =50; STD 10)

Answers

Answer:

0.4207

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine z-score

[tex]z=\frac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}\\ \\z=\frac{52-50}{10/\sqrt{70}}\\ \\z\approx1.6733[/tex]

Find P(Z>1.6733)

[tex]P(Z > 1.6733)=normalcdf(1.6733,\infty)\approx0.4207[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that the mean stress level for a sample of 70 employees will fall above 52 is 0.4207

sale price: $66.30 percent of discount: 65%
find the regular price​

Answers

Answer:

$189.43

Step-by-step explanation:

P = regular price

65% as a decimal = [tex]\frac{65}{100}[/tex] = .65

Discount = .65

To get the amount of the discount we would multiply P * .65

To find the sale price we subtract the discount from the original price.

Now we write our equation:

P - P(.65) = $66.30  

Solve for P

P - P(.65) = $66.30  

1P - P(.65) = $66.30  

1P - .65P = $66.30  

.35P = 66.30   Divide each side by .35

.35P.35 = 66.30/.35

P = 66.30/.35

P ≈ $189.43

A man won a lotto jackpot and he spent 2/5 of the money on luxury cars and 1/4 on buying a house. What fraction of his lotto earnings is remaining​

Answers

spent : 2/5 + 1/4 = 8/20 + 5/20 = 13/20

remains = 7/20

The 7/20th fraction of his lotto earnings is remaining.

Let us say the man has $100

Money spent on luxury cars = 2/5 of the money

Money spent on luxury cars = 2/5 * 100 = $40

Money spent on buying a house = 1/4 of the money

Money spent on buying a house = 1/4 * 100 =$25

Money left with the man = 100-40-25 = $35

$35 is what fraction of $100?

$35 is 35/100 fraction of $100.

35/100 = 7/20

So, the 7/20th fraction of his lotto earnings is remaining.

Hence, the 7/20th fraction of his lotto earnings is remaining.

[tex]x = 3y[/tex]

[tex]3y + y = 90[/tex]

[tex]4y = 90[/tex]

[tex]y = 15[/tex]

[tex]x = 3(15) = 45[/tex]

Answer:

45 °

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that:

Supplementary Angle = 180 °

Angle x is 3 time the measure of angle y.

Solve:

Equation below:

x + y = 180

x = 3y

Substitute

3y + y =180

4y = 180

Divide both sides by 4

4y/4 = 180/4

y = 45

Value of x:

x = 3 × 45

x = 135

Therefore the measure of angle x is 135.

x = 45

y = 135

Iman had twice as much money as Daphne at first. After Iman had spent $128 of her money on a bag and Daphne had spent $40 of her money on a dress, they had an equal amount of money left. How much money did each of them have left? pls help me.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Iman's money

y = Daphne's money

x = 2y

x - 128 = y - 40

now we use the first equation as identity in the second equation and get

2y - 128 = y - 40

y - 128 = -40

y = $88

x = 2y = $176

these were the starting values.

now, after spending, they have both left

176 - 128 = 88 - 40 = $48

Write an equation describing the relationship of the given variables.

y =

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 2x^4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given statement can be represented as:

[tex]y\ \alpha\ x^4[/tex]

[tex]x =3; y = 162[/tex]

Given

Represent this as an equation

[tex]y\ \alpha\ x^4[/tex]

Convert variation to equation

[tex]y = kx^4[/tex]

Where k is a constant of variation.

Substitute [tex]x =3; y = 162[/tex]

[tex]162 = k * 3^4[/tex]

[tex]162 = k * 81[/tex]

Solve for k

[tex]k = 162/81[/tex]

[tex]k =2[/tex]

To get the equation, we have:

[tex]y = kx^4[/tex]

Substitute 2 for k

[tex]y = 2x^4[/tex]

The equation describing the relationship of the given variables is [tex]y=\frac{81}{162}x^4[/tex]

If y varies directly to the fourth power of x, this can be expressed as:

[tex]y \alpha x^4\\y=kx^4\\[/tex]

Given that x = 3 and y = 162, the equation becomes;

[tex]162 = k(3^4)\\162 = 81k\\k=\frac{81}{162}[/tex]

Substitute the value of k into the expression above to have:

[tex]y=kx^4\\y=\frac{81}{162}x^4[/tex]

Hence the equation describing the relationship of the given variables is [tex]y=\frac{81}{162}x^4[/tex]
