BRAINLIESTTTTTTT!!!
1. A company is deciding whether or not to hire a new worker. The company must pay the worker hourly and cover a daily cost for insurance. The cost to pay an hourly worker for one day is represented by the function y = 8x + 25, where x is hours.
What is the y-intercept, and what does it represent?
8; it represents the hourly wage for the worker
8; it represents the cost for insurance
25; it represents the cost for insurance
25; it represents the hourly wage for the worker
2. Analyze the following statement:
Brandon puts his water in the refrigerator so it will stay cold.
Is the statement an example of correlation or causation?
Correlation, because there aren't enough observable trials
Causation, because a refrigerator keeps things cold
No relationship, because water temperature is independent of whether or not it is in a refrigerator
There is not enough information to make a conclusion
