Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) y = 1.875x + 1.25

B) 35 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We need two points to define a line. To find an equation that would describe the line of best fit, we can use one of the first points and one of the last points. Let's use (2, 5) and (10, 20).

General equation of a line:

y = mx + b

Slope of the line:

m = (20 - 5)/(10 - 2) = 1.875

y-intercept is found replacing a known point and the slope into the general  equation:

5 = 1.875*2 + b

b = 5 - 1.875*2 = 1.25

The final equation is:

y = 1.875x + 1.25

where y represents weight (in pounds) and x represents age (in months)

B) At x = 18:

y = 1.875*18 + 1.25 = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + (z + 2y) - 12, if x = 3, y = 8 and z= 5.

3*3 + (5+2*8) - 12

9 + (5 + 16) - 12

20 - 2

18

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

First what you would do is plug in the numbers.

3x3+(5+2x8)-12

Then you would multiply 2 times 8 and get 16. Then add 16 and 5 and get 21.

3x3+(21)-12

Then you add 3 times 3 and get 9.

9+21-12

Then you solve left to right. Then you add 9 and 21 and get 30. Last you subtract by 30 by 12 and get 18.

The height of an object launched upward from ground level is given by the function s(t) = -4.9t2 + 78.4t, where s(t) is the height in meters and t is the time in seconds. Arrange the time intervals in ascending order of the object's magnitude of average velocity over the interval.

Answers

Answer:

the distance of  the object before it  hits the ground after launch is t = 1.592 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of an object launched upward from ground level is given by the function s(t) = -4.9t² +7.8t

when the object reach the ground then s(t) = 0

So;  -4.9t² +7.8t = 0

-4.9t² +7.8t + 0 = 0

By using the quadratic equation

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}}[/tex]

where; a = -4.9 ; b = 7.8 and c = 0

[tex]\mathbf{=\dfrac{-(7.8) \pm \sqrt{(7.8)^2-4(-4.9)(0)} }{2(-4.9)}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{=\dfrac{-(7.8) \pm \sqrt{(60.84} }{-9.8}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{=\dfrac{-(7.8) + \sqrt{(60.84} }{-9.8} \ \ \ \ OR \ \ \ \ \mathbf{\dfrac{-(7.8) - \sqrt{(60.84} }{-9.8}}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{=0 \ \ \ OR \ \ \ 1.592 }}[/tex]

Hence;  the distance of  the object before it  hits the ground after launch is t = 1.592 seconds

Answers

Answer:

The representative sample contained more girls than boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

A "sample" of something is a small part of it. A "representative sample" is a small part of the students that represents them all. A random sample would not include all 160 students. It is more likely that there would be more girls than boys, than more boys than girls. In total, there are more girls than boys: 95 girls to 65 boys. It is more likely that a sample of the total students would be just like the total, but smaller.

Pretend that the parenthesis aren't there. 13x + 9y + 38x + 33y.

When you combine like terms, you add or subtract the terms that have the same variable attached.

The half-life of a certain radioactive element is 35 hours. If there are 904 grams of this element, how much will be left after 70 hours? (please help I might fail Math.)

Answers

Answer:

226 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The half-life of a radioactive substance is the time taken for half the quantity of the substance to decay such that the amount life after the given period of time is half the original quantity.

As such, given that the half-life of a certain radioactive element is 35 hours and there are 904 grams available, it means that after 35 hours,

Amount decayed = 1/2 * 904 grams

= 452 grams

Amount left = 904 grams - 452 grams

= 452 grams

After another 35 hours (now a total of 70 hours),

Amount decayed = 1/2 * 452 grams

= 226 grams

Amount left = 452 grams - 226 grams

= 226 grams

Using the matrix solver on your calculator, find the solution to the system of

equations shown below.

2x - 4y = 4

x - 2y = 8

Answers

Answer:

x = 5

y = - 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\left \{ {{2x-4y =4} \atop {x-2y=8}} \right.[/tex]

The augmented matrix is :

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&-4&4\\1&-2&8\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

Now; to Row operations

Swap row 2 to row 1

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2&8\\\\2&-4&4 \end{array}\right][/tex]

Multiply row 1 with 2 and add to row 2 ;

1(2) = 2

-2(2) = -4

8(2) = 16

2 +2  = 4

4 +(-4) = 0

16+ 4 =20

Now; we have:

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2&8\\\\4&0&20 \end{array}\right][/tex]

changing row 2 back to equation form:

4x + 0y = 20

4x = 20

x = 20/4

x = 5

substituting x = 5 in row 1

x - 2y = 8

5 - 2y = 8

-2y = 8 -5

-2y = 3

y = - 3/2
