<span>The canyon starts at an elevation of (-14.5). After each year, the elevation drops by (-1.5). The equation that could be written for this, then, would be (-14.5 - 1.5x = -31). First, we could add 14.5 to both sides of the equation to isolate the unknown. This would leave -1.5x = -16.5. Next, we can remove the negative signs so both sides of the equation are positive and easier to work with. This leaves 1.5x = 16.5. Finally, dividing both sides by 1.5 gives us "x = 11", which means that after 11 years, the canyon floor will be at -31 feet.</span>
Answer:
No options
Step-by-step explanation:
Knowing that V=in/min = x(t)/t and according to the graph,
V=20in/20min=in/min, so
No options since speed is not inches per minute, spedd (V) = inches over minutes
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
b.Each electrician charges a different base fee:
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>Each of the equations has two parts:</u>
1- base fee that is independent of any variable (this would be the number that has no variable next to it)
2- an hourly rate depending on the number of hours x (this would be the number that has an x next to it)
<u>For the first electrician:</u>
y = 25x + 30
base fee = $30
hourly rate = $25
<u>For the second electrician:</u>
y = 30x + 25
base fee = $25
hourly rate = $30
<u>For the third electrician:</u>
y = 25x + 20
base fee = $20
hourly rate = $25
<u>Now, let's check the choices:</u>
<span><u>a.Each electrician charges a different hourly rate:</u>
</span>This is incorrect as electricians 1 and 3 charge the same hourly rate ($25)
<span><u>b.Each electrician charges a different base fee:</u>
This is correct as all three base fees are different ($30, $20 and $25)
</span><span><u>c.All three electricians charge the same hourly rate:</u>
This is incorrect as electrician 2 has a different hourly rate
</span><span><u>d. All three electricians charge the same base fee:</u>
This is incorrect as the base fees for the three electricians are different ($30, $25 and $20)
Hope this helps :)</span>
<span>In a baseball season:
Peter hit = 2 (x - 6)
Total = 19 hits
X= Alex’s hit
Y = Peter’s Hit
=> Y = 2(x - 6)
=> x + y = 18
Let’s start from the second given equation:
=> x + y =18
=> y = 18 – x
Now, let’s use the first given equation to solve:
=> 18 – x = 2 (x - 6)
=> 18 – x = 2x – 12
=> -3x = -30
x = 10
Now, Let’s try:
=> Y = 2(x - 6)
=> y = 2 (10 - 6)
=> y = 2 (4)
=> y = 8
Thus, Peter hit 8 and Alice hit 10.</span>
Answer: c)[50,60]
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical rule says that , About 68% of the population lies with the one standard deviation from the mean (For normally distribution).
We are given that , The heights of students in a class are normally distributed with mean 55 inches and standard deviation 5 inches.
Then by Empirical rule, about 68% of the heights of students lies between one standard deviation from mean.
i.e. about 68% of the heights of students lies between 
i.e. about 68% of the heights of students lies between 
Here, 
i.e. The required interval that contains the middle 68% of the heights. = [50,60]
Hence, the correct answer is c) (50,60)
