a=2+6t, b=10+2t

a=b when

2+6t=10+2t  subtract 2t from both sides

2+4t=10  subtract 2 from both sides

4t=8  divide both sides by 4

t=2

Thus, they will have the same amount of snowfall after two hours

hope i helped

Anumeha is mowing lawns for a summer job. For every mowing job, she charges an initial fee of $ 10 $10dollar sign, 10 plus a con
Zina [12379]

Answer:

F(t) = 10 + 5(t)

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is as follows;

Anumeha is mowing lawns for a summer job. For each lawn she mows, she charges a $10 starting fee plus an hourly rate. For example, her fee for a 5-hour job is $35. Let f(t) denote Anumeha's fee for a job f (in dollars) based on how many hours (t) were needed to finish it. Write the formula for this function.

Solution

We aim to establish the formula F(t) representing the fee Anumeha charges per job.

Key to formulating this function is understanding the constant charge she applies per job.

We know she earns $35 for mowing for 5 hours.

Therefore, the constant fee can be deduced as follows;

Since it’s a $10 starting fee along with an hourly rate;

35 = 10 + 5(x)

where x refers to the hourly rate

35 = 10 + 5x

5x = 35-10

5x = 25

x = 25/5

x = $5

This indicates that she charges a constant fee of $5 per hour

Thus, we can now write the equation.

F(t) = 10 + 5(t)

where t represents the number of hours spent on each job

In detail: Based on the central limit theorem, the distribution appears normal due to the large sample size. The confidence interval is presented in the format: (Sample mean - margin of error, sample mean + margin of error). The sample mean, denoted as x, serves as the point estimate for the population mean. The confidence interval is computed as: mean ± z × σ/√n, where σ represents the population standard deviation. The formula transforms into confidence interval = x ± z × σ/√n, with specific values: x = $75, σ = $24. To find the z score, we subtract the confidence level from 100% which gives α as 1 - 0.96 = 0.04; halving this results in α/2 = 0.02, signifying the tail areas. To ensure we account for the center area, we have 1 - 0.02 = 0.98, corresponding to a z score of 2.05 for the 96% confidence level. The confidence interval becomes 75 ± 2.05 × 24/√64 = 75 ± 2.05 × 3 = 75 ± 6.15. The lower limit is 75 - 6.15 = 68.85, while the upper limit stands at 75 + 6.15 = 81.15. For n = 400, with x = $75 and σ = $24, the z score remains 2.05, resulting in the confidence interval calculated as 75 ± 2.05 × 24/√400 = 75 ± 2.05 × 1.2 = 75 ± 2.46. Subsequently, the lower bound becomes 75 - 2.46 = 72.54, and the upper limit adds up to 75 + 2.46 = 77.46. Lastly, when n = 400, x = $200, and σ = $80, the z score tied to a 94% confidence level is 1.88. Thus, the confidence interval is expressed as 200 ± 1.88 × 80/√400 = 200 ± 1.88 × 4 = 200 ± 7.52, giving us a margin of error of 7.52.

What is the product of 2x2 – 3xy + y2 and 2x – 4y?
AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

C. 4x^3 - 14x^2y + 14xy^2 - 4y^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Multiplication of 2x^2 – 3xy + y^2 and 2x – 4y

Multiplication refers to the product

(2x^2 – 3xy + y^2) (2x – 4y)

Expand the brackets

= 4x^3 - 8x^2y - 6x^2y + 12xy^2 + 2xy^2 - 4y^3

Combine like terms

= 4x^3 - 14x^2y + 14xy^2 - 4y^3

The result is

C. 4x^3 - 14x^2y + 14xy^2 - 4y^3
