A small publishing company is planning to publish a new book. The production costs will include one-time fixed costs (such as editing) and variable costs (such as printing). There are two production methods it could use. With one method, the one-time fixed costs will total $82,910, and the variable costs will be $10.75 per book. With the other method, the one-time fixed costs will total $22,110 , and the variable costs will be $23.25 per book. For how many books produced will the costs from the two methods be the same?

1. there are 25 students who started computer programming in elementary school and 25 students who started computer programming in middle school. the first group had a mean final project grade of 95% and the second group had a mean final project grade of 92%. the line plot shows the differences after 10 rerandomizations. determine whether the difference in the means of the two groups is significant based on the line plot. explain your answer.

Asystem of linear equations with more equations than unknowns is sometimes called an overdetermined system. can such a system be consistent? illustrate your answer with a specific system of three equations in two unknowns. choose the correct answer below. a. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 6 b. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are fewer free variables than equations. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 12 c. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 8 d. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are no free variables. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 24

From the top of a tree a bird looks down on a field mouse at an angle of depression of 50°. if the field mouse is 40 meters from the base of the tree, find the vertical distance from the ground to the bird's eyes.
