The equation that represents the relationship of x number of badges to y dollars is y = 9x.

What is an equation?

A mathematical statement called an equation displays the equality of two mathematical expressions. Variables, coefficients, exponents, arithmetic operators, equal signs, and constants are some of the components that make up an equation.

 An equation is said to be linear if the maximum power of the variable is consistently 1.

Let the number of badges be x and the cost of x number of badges be y.

From the question, we know that for 48 badges, the cost is $432.

So the cost of one badge = 432/48 = $9

Now the cost of x number of badges = $(9x)

We mentioned in the beginning that the cost of x number of badges is y

A statement 'The lateral surface area of cone A is exactly equal to the lateral surface area of cylinder B.' is True.

We know that the formula for the lateral surface area of cone:

Area = 2π × (radius) × (height)

Here we have been given a cone A with radius r and slant height 2h.

Using the above formula, the lateral surface area of cone A would be:

A1 =  π × r × 2h

A1 =  2π × r × h                    ..................(1)

Also, we have been given a cylinder B with radius r and height h.

Using the above formula, the lateral surface area of cylinder A would be:

If the horizontal distance between Tyler and the kite is 600 feet then the kite is 80 ft above the ground.

Pythagoras's Theorem is a fundamental result in Euclidean geometry that states that in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse. This can be mathematically represented as:

[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2[/tex]

Where c is the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b are the lengths of the legs of the triangle.

The theorem is named after the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras, who by tradition is credited with its discovery and proof, although it is often argued that the theorem may have been known to the Babylonians and Indians over a thousand years earlier.

Pythagoras's theorem is widely used in mathematics and physics, especially in trigonometry and in the study of triangles and their properties, and it's also used to find the distance between two points in a two-dimensional space, for example, in cartesian coordinates.

The rectangular prism in figure 2 has the same volume of 108 m².

Given that the square prism's measurements are as follows:

area = 36 m²

h = 3 m

As a result, the volume of this prism is equal to side² h = area h = 36 3 = 108 m2.

Now, we'll figure out how much each prism in the image is worth.

1) Because it is a right-angled tent or prism, the volume calculation will be

V = 1/2 (base length base width) Height

= 1/2×(3×2×6) = 36/2 = 18 m²

2. Volume of a rectangular prism is equal to length, width, and height, which is 2 18 3 = 108 m2.

3. A tent's or prism's volume is equal to half of its base's length, width, and height

= 1/2×4×9×3 = 1/2×108 = 54 m²

Consequently, the rectangular prism in figure 2 has the same volume of 108 m2.

Absolute maxima and absolute minima are terms used to describe the function's maximum and minimum values, respectively, throughout its full range.

The curve of a function has peaks and troughs called maxima and minima. A function may have any number of peaks and minima. Calculus allows us to determine any function's maximum and lowest values without ever consulting the function's graph. Maxima will be the curve's highest point within the specified range, while minima will be its lowest.

Extrema is the result of maxima and minima combined. The graph in the graphic below shows several peaks and falls. We obtain the function's maximum and lowest values at x = a and 0 respectively, and at x = b and c respectively. The valleys are the minima and all the peaks are the maximum.

In this problem, we will need to use of some mathematical operators to solve the problem

1.

He currently has 216 cards, but he needs 15 sets of cards.

1 set of card = 72 cards

Let's calculate the number of sets he currently has.

1 set of card = 72 cards

x set = 216 cards

cross multiply both sides and solve for x.

x * 72 = 216 * 1

x = 216 / 72

x = 3 sets

He currently has 3 sets of cards.

Since he wants 15 sets of cards, we will need 12 more set of cards.

The number of cards can be calculated by multiplying 12 by 72

Number of cards = 12 * 72 = 864

You can differentiate best time, worst time and average time of an algorithm like this:

Best time = fastest completion time with optimal inputs.

Worst time = slowest completion time, with pessimistic inputs.

Average time = arithmetic mean

The average-case complexity of an algorithm is the amount of a computational resource (typically time) used by the algorithm, averaged over all potential inputs, according to computational complexity theory. The worst-case complexity, which takes into account the algorithm's maximum complexity given all potential inputs, is frequently contrasted with it.

There are three main reasons to investigate average-case complexity. First off, while some problems may be insurmountable in the worst case, the inputs that cause this behaviour may only occasionally occur in practise, so the average-case complexity may be a better indicator of an algorithm's performance.

Second, tools and techniques to create challenging problems are provided by average-case complexity analysis. These tools and techniques can be used in fields like derandomization and cryptography.

Third, average-case complexity enables the most effective algorithm in practise to be distinguished from algorithms with equivalent best case complexity.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a tree is 3 ft tall when planted and grows at 3/4 ft per year, you want to identify the point-slope equation that does NOT fit this description, and you want two (2) more point-slope equations that DO fit this description.

The point-slope equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) is ...

  y -k = m(x -h)

The point representing the initial height of the tree is (x, y) = (years, feet) = (0, 3). If the rate of growth is 3/4 ft per year, then the equation can be written ...

  y -3 = 3/4(x -0) . . . . . . . . . matches choice (a)

All of the given equations have m = 3/4, so to find the incorrect equation, we need to find the point that is not on the line described by the above equation. We can do this by identifying the point (h, k) in each equation.

The attachment shows the point values used in each of the other equations (b) through (e). We find they all fall on the line except the point (15, 15) used in equation (e).

The incorrect equation is equation (e) y -15 = 3/4(x -15).

We can write additional equations by finding additional points that are on the line. For the purpose, it is convenient to choose x-values that are multiples of 4. Already, equations use x = 0, 4, 12, 15. We can choose x=8 and x=16 for the equations we write. The graph shows the corresponding y-values are 9 and 15, respectively. Then two additional equations could be ...

  y -9 = 3/4(x -8)

  y -15 = 3/4(x -16)

Additional comment

There are several ways to find the equation that doesn't belong. Another way, apart from plotting the points on a graph, is to rewrite each equation into the same form. Slope-intercept form is fairly convenient for this.

(a) y -3 = 3/4(x -0)   ⇒   y = 3/4x +3

(d) y -12 = 3/4(x -12)   ⇒   y = 3/4x -9 +12 = 3/4x +3

(e) y -15 = 3/4(x -15)   ⇒   y = 3/4x -11.25 +15 = 3/4x +3.75 (incorrect)

You can see that 3/4x (and y) will be an integer only if x is a multiple of 4. We like integers, so it is convenient to choose x as a multiple of 4.
