Concept Used:
At first convert the condition given in the question into an algebraic equation.
Let the cost of a bag of potato is
The cost of a bag of potatoes is $1.50 less than
Equation:
Calculation:
As given in the chart: The cost of Apple is $6.99 per bag
Equation:
Now plug in the value of
Find the cost of 1 bag potato:
Cost of 1 bag potato is $2
Thus, the cost of 1 bag potato is $2.

Write and solve an equation to find the cost of zucchini.
(b)

Answer to Problem 52PPS
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Condition:The price of each zucchini is 3 times the price of winter squash minus $7
Concept Used:
At first we need to convert the condition given in the question into an equation.
Let the cost of each zucchini is
The price of each zucchini is 3 times the price of winter squash minus $7
Equation:
Calculation:
According to the chart given in the question theCost of winter squash 2.99 each
Equation:
To find the cost of each zucchini, plug in the value of squash:
Find the cost of each zucchini:
The cost of each zucchini is
Thus, the cost of each zucchini is
(c)
Write an equation to represent the cost of a pumpkin using the cost of blue barriers.
(c)

Answer to Problem 52PPS
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Cost of Pumpkin - $5.00 each and Blue barriers − 2.99 per quartz.
Concept Used:
We need to write an equation to represent the cost of a pumpkin using the cost of blue barriers.
In the question it is given that Cost of Pumpkin - $5.00 each and Blue barriers − 2.99 per quartz
Let the Cost of each Pumpkin is
Calculation:
In the question it is given that Cost of Pumpkin - $5.00 each and Blue barriers − 2.99 per quartz
The cost of a pumpkin in terms of the cost of blue barriers is:
Equation:
Thus, the cost of pumpkin in terms of the cost blue barriers

- Assume that you fancy polynomial splines, while you actually need ƒ(t) = e²/3 – 1 for t€ [−1, 1]. See the figure for a plot of f(t). Your goal is to approximate f(t) with an inter- polating polynomial spline of degree d that is given as sa(t) = • Σk=0 Pd,k bd,k(t) so that sd(tk) = = Pd,k for tk = −1 + 2 (given d > 0) with basis functions bd,k(t) = Σi±0 Cd,k,i = • The special case of d 0 is trivial: the only basis function b0,0 (t) is constant 1 and so(t) is thus constant po,0 for all t = [−1, 1]. ...9 The d+1 basis functions bd,k (t) form a ba- sis Bd {ba,o(t), ba,1(t), bd,d(t)} of the function space of all possible sα (t) functions. Clearly, you wish to find out, which of them given a particular maximal degree d is the best-possible approximation of f(t) in the least- squares sense. _ 1 0.9 0.8 0.7 0.6 0.5 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.1 0 -0.1 -0.2 -0.3 -0.4 -0.5 -0.6 -0.7 -0.8 -0.9 -1 function f(t) = exp((2t)/3) - 1 to project -1 -0.9 -0.8 -0.7 -0.6 -0.5 -0.4 -0.3 -0.2 -0.1 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5…arrow_forwardAn image processor considered a 750×750 pixels large subset of an image and converted it into gray-scale, resulting in matrix gIn - a false-color visualization of gIn is shown in the top-left below. He prepared a two-dim. box filter f1 as a 25×25 matrix with only the 5×5 values in the middle being non-zero – this filter is shown in the top-middle position below. He then convolved £1 with itself to get £2, before convolving £2 with itself to get f3. In both of the steps, he maintained the 25×25 size. Next, he convolved gIn with £3 to get gl. Which of the six panels below shows g1? Argue by explaining all the steps, so far: What did the image processor do when preparing ₤3? What image processing operation (from gin to g1) did he prepare and what's the effect that can be seen? Next, he convolved the rows of f3 with filter 1/2 (-1, 8, 0, -8, 1) to get f4 - you find a visualization of filter f 4 below. He then convolved gIn with f4 to get g2 and you can find the result shown below. What…arrow_forward3ur Colors are enchanting and elusive. A multitude of color systems has been proposed over a three-digits number of years - maybe more than the number of purposes that they serve... - Everyone knows the additive RGB color system – we usually serve light-emitting IT components like monitors with colors in that system. Here, we use c = (r, g, b) RGB with r, g, bЄ [0,1] to describe a color c. = T For printing, however, we usually use the subtractive CMY color system. The same color c becomes c = (c, m, y) CMY (1-c, 1-m, 1-y) RGB Note how we use subscripts to indicate with coordinate system the coordinates correspond to. Explain, why it is not possible to find a linear transformation between RGB and CMY coordinates. Farbenlehr c von Goethe Erster Band. Roſt einen Defte mit fergen up Tübingen, is et 3.
