Response:

0; 10; 20

Detailed explanation:

x serves as the independent variable

y functions as the dependent variable

the value of y relies on x

a) What is the independent variable value that makes the function result in −6

y=0.3x−6

-6 = 0.3x-6

0=0.3x

x = 0

Hence, when the independent variable is 0, the function yields -6.

b) What is the independent variable value for which the function equals −3

y=0.3x−6

-3 = 0.3x-6

0.3x = -3+6

0.3x = 3

x = 3/0.3

x = 10

Thus, if the independent variable is 10, the function will give -3.

c) What independent variable value results in a function of 0.

y=0.3x−6

0=0.3x-6

6 = 0.3x

x = 6/0.3

x = 20

Therefore, for an independent variable of 20, the function results in 0.

lawyer [12517]
The likelihood of observing a sample mean that is less than 18 hours is 0.0082. \nTo evaluate this probability, we calculate the z-score for a sample mean of 18. Accordingly, the probability of getting a sample mean below 18 hours becomes P(z<z(18)). \nThe z-score is calculated as follows: \nz(18) = [(X - M) / s] where: \n- X is the sample mean (18 hours) \n- M is the average hours dentists devote weekly to fillings (20 hours) \n- s is the standard deviation (10 hours) \n- N is the sample size (144) \nSubstituting the numbers leads to: \nz(18) = [(18 - 20) / (10/sqrt(144))]. Using the z-table, we find that P(z<z(18)) is 0.0082.

Yolanda invests $30,000 in an account that offers a compound interest rate of 7.9% per year. Which of the following is the corre
Zina [12379]
To find the solution, we will utilize the compound interest formula: A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
where
A represents the total amount after t years
tex]P[/tex] indicates the original investment 
r signifies the interest rate expressed in decimal
n shows the frequency of compounding per year
t indicates the duration in years

According to our problem, the initial investment is <span>$30,000 with a duration of ten years, thus </span>P=30000 and t=10. Interest is compounded annually, so n=1. To convert the percentage interest rate into decimal, we divide it by 100%
r= \frac{7.9}{100}
r=0.079
Now, we can insert these values into our formula:
A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
A=30000(1+ \frac{0.079}{1} )^{(1)(10)}
A=3000(1+0.079)^{10}
Substituting A with P_{10}:
P_{10}=3000(1+0.079)^{10}

Consequently, we find that the correct answer is D. P_{10}=3000(1+0.079)^{10}

Finally, to determine <span>the total amount Yolanda will have after ten years, we just need to carry out the operations in our equation: 
</span>P_{10}=3000(1+0.079)^{10}
P_{10}=30000(1.079)^{10}
P_{10}=64170.54

Thus, we conclude that Yolanda will end up with $64,170.54 in her account after a decade of earning <span>at a compound interest rate of 7.9% yearly.</span>

PIT_PIT [12445]
To determine how many 3/64 gallon servings can be filled from a total of 2/3 gallon of punch, perform the division of 2/3 by 3/64. The outcome is not a whole number, but this method illustrates the solution. Vinny's total is 2/3 of a gallon of punch, with each guest receiving a measure of 3/64 gallon, which tells us how many can be accommodated by performing<span> (2/3) / (3/64).</span>
