A car traveled 261 miles on 9 gallons of gas. The same car also traveled 145 miles on 5 gallons of gas. If the ordered pairs for this relationship are (gallons,
distance), what is the slope of the line through these two ordered pairs?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

the ordered pairs for this relationship are (gallons,  distance)

it means on coordinate plane

x represents gallons

y represents distance

thus,

two point on plane will be

A car traveled 261 miles on 9 gallons of gas

miles = 261 ---let it be represented by x1

gallons = 9---let it be represented by y1

(x1,y1) = (9,261)

miles = 145 ---let it be represented by x2

gallons = 5---let it be represented by y2

(x2,y2) = (5,145)

slope of two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by

slope = m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

thus, slope of the above ordered pair

m = (145-261)/(5-9) = -116/-4 = 29

Thus, slope of the line through these two ordered pairs is 29.

A study on students drinking habits wants to determine the true average number of alcoholic drinks all uf underclassmen students have in a one week period. We know from preliminary studies that the standard deviation is around 2. 8. How many students should be sampled to be within 1. 5 drink of population mean with 90% probability?.

Answers

Answer: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation is 2

Margin error for the problem is 1

Probability 95%, that means thet the siginficance level α is 1 – p

α = 1 – 0.95 = 0.05

margin of error (ME) can be defined as follows

ME = Z(α/2) * standard deviation/ √n

Where n is the sample size

Z(0.05/2) = Z(0.025)

Using a z table Z = 1.96

Now, replacing in the equation and find n

1 = 1.96 * 2/ √n

1 = 3.92 / √n

√n = 3.92

n = 3.92^2

n = 15.36 = 16

Pls add explaination

Answers

Answer:

2

Step by step explanation:

Given: The average mass of all the students in the class was 35.1 kg. After 1 student left the class, whose mass is 32.3kg, the average mass of the remaining students became 36.3kg, how many students were there in the class room now?

Find out: how many students were there in the class room after one student left

Solution: Let the total number of remaining student be= n

Let the total number of remaining student be= nAnd the sum of mass of all the students be = x kg

So,

[tex] \frac{x}{n + 1} = 35.1[/tex]

Make x the subject of formula

[tex]--› \: x = 35.1(n + 1)[/tex]

And

[tex]--› \: \frac{x - 32.3}{n} = 36.3[/tex]

[tex]--›x - 32.3= 36.3n[/tex]

[tex]--› \: 35.1(n + 1) - 32.3 = 36.3n[/tex]

[tex]--› \: 35.1n + 35.1 - 32.3 = 36.3n[/tex]

[tex]--› \: 2.8 = 1.2n[/tex]

divide both side by n

[tex]n = \frac{2.8}{1.2} [/tex]

N = 2.333

so total number of students remaining is 2

A box of chocolates contains four milk chocolates and five dark chocolates. You randomly pick a chocolate and eat it. Then you randomly pick another piece. What are the odds that both pieces were milk chocolate?( show explanation)

Answers

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly the question is a probability without replacement because the chocolate are eaten after being picked .

next sum the total chocolate in the bag (4+5)=9

now probability is possible outcome over total outcome.

P(a)and p(b) =p(a)xp(b)

p(a)=4 /9

p(b)=3/8 ... because there will be 3 milk chocolate and 5dark chocolate left

hance P=(4/9)(3/8)

During halftime of a basketball game, a slingshot launches T-shirts at the crowd. A teacher is launched from a height of 5 feet with an initial upward velocity of 72 ft./s. Use the equation h(t)=-16t^2+72t+5, where r is time in seconds and h(t) is height. How long Will it take the T-shirt to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height?

Answers

Answer:

2.25 seconds, 86 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

No idea where the r, second is, so I'm assuming that t is time in seconds.

Because this is a perfect parabola, we can find the zeroes (the places where the y value is 5, because that's where the teacher is launched from) and then get the middle of those 2 points.

First let's make the a term of this equation be positive so multiply everything by minus one.

16t^2-72t-5

After that, let's factor this (I won't go into details about this, you should already know how to do this if your asking this question)

we get t(t - 4.5) = 5

So the 2 x values are 0 and 4.5, and the whole flight time of the teacher is 4.5 seconds.

The half way between that is 2.25, and then we can plug that time back in to the equation to get a y value of 86.

1. The width of a rectangle is ten meters less than the length. The perimeter is 216 meters,
Find the length and width

Answers

Answer: Width = 49meters; Length = 59meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be represented by x

The length will be (x+10)

Perimeter = 2(length+breadth)

Perimeter= 2(x + x + 10)

Perimeter = 2(2x + 10)

216 = 4x + 20

4x = 216 -20

4x = 196

x = 196/4

x = 49

Width = 49meters

Length = x+10

Length = 49 + 10

Length = 59meters

Step-by-step explanation:

I am unsure of the - in the equation. This should be 4h+50+6h+70=M

then we would set the equation equal to the $205

205=4h+50+6h+70

if we simplify we have

205=10h+120

then we would get the h by itself and we get

205-120=10h

85.00=10h

85.00/10=10h/10

8.50=h

1/4(-4) + 1/4(5) = 5

Solving Algebraic Equations

To solve algebraic equations, we must combine like terms and perform inverse operations on both sides of the equal sign to isolate the variable.

The inverse operation of addition is subtraction, and vice versa.The inverse operation of multiplication is division, and vice versa.

Inverse operations help us cancel values out.

Solving the Question

[tex]- 4 a - 2 a = - 18[/tex]

⇒ First, combine like terms:

[tex]- 6a = - 18[/tex]

a is being multiplied by -6. To isolate a, divide both sides by -6:

[tex]\dfrac{- 6a}{-6} = \dfrac{- 18}{-6}\\\\a=3[/tex]

Answer

a = 3

Answer:

a=3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4a-2a=-18

-6a= -18

Divide both sides by -6

-6a/-6=-18/-6

a=3

Given 2x - 3 = 7, what is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

2x-3=7 /×3

2x=3+7

2x=10 /÷2

x=5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3 = 7                         Add 3 to both sides

2x - 3+3 = 7 + 3                Combine

2x = 10                              Divide by 2

2x/2 = 10/2                       Combine

x = 5

These types of equations all follow the same pattern. The look like

ax + b = c                         You have to isolate the x so add b if b is minus or you subtract b if b is plus. Notice that b was minus in your question. So Add

Now you you have

ax  =  c - b                      That always happens. The x is isolated if you deal with b first. Now all you need to do is divide by a.

x = (c - b)/a

Try a couple

3x -4 = 5                       The answer is 3

5x + 2 = 27                   the answer is 5
