Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(3x - 1) ≥ 4x - 6 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

6x - 2 ≥ 4x - 6 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

2x - 2 ≥ - 6 ( add 2 to both sides )

2x ≥ - 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x ≥ - 2

The only value in the list greater than - 2 is - 1

x = - 1 is in the solution set

Answer:

D) -1

Step-by-step explanation:

6x-2≥4x-6

6x-4x≥-6+2

2x≥-4

x≥-4÷2

x≥-2

Only -1 is greater than -2 in the list.

1. Maryann is tracking the change in her vertical jump over 6 months. Use the table to write a linear function that models her j

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Part 1) Option A. f of x equals one half times x plus 16

Part 2) Option A. x = 5

Part 3) Option C. x − 4y = −9

Part 4) Option A. The number of rides is the independent variable, and the total cost is the dependent variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

Let

x -----> the number of months

y ----> vertical jump in inches

step 1

Find the slope

we have the points

(0,16) and (2,17)

$m=(17-16)/(2-0)=\frac{1}{2}$

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=\frac{1}{2}$

$b=16$ -----> the point (0,16) is the y-intercept

substitute

$y=\frac{1}{2}x+16$

convert to function notation

f(x)=y

$f(x)=\frac{1}{2}x+16$

Part 2) What is the equation of a line that contains the points (5, 0) and (5, −2)?

step 1

Find the slope

we have the points

(5, 0) and (5, −2)

$m=(-2-0)/(5-5)=\frac{-2}{0}$

the slope is undefined

This is a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis)

therefore

The equation is

x=5

Part 3) Choose the equation that represents a line that passes through points (−1, 2) and (3, 1)

step 1

Find the slope

we have the points

(−1, 2) and (3, 1)

$m=(1-2)/(3+1)=-\frac{1}{4}$

step 2

Find the equation of the line into point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=-\frac{1}{4}$

$point\ (3, 1)$

substitute

$y-1=-\frac{1}{4}(x-5)$

Convert to standard form

Multiply by 4 both sides to remove the fraction

$4y-4=-(x-5)$

$4y-4=-x+5$

$x-4y=-4-5$

$x-4y=-9$

Part 4) Jewels has $6.75 to ride the ferry around Connecticut. It will cost her $0.45 every time she rides. Identify the dependent variable and independent variable in this scenario

we know that

The independent variable is the variable whose change isn’t affected by any other variable (An example the age and time)

The dependent variable it’s what changes as a result of the changes to the independent variable (An example of a dependent variable is how tall you are at different ages. The dependent variable (height) depends on the independent variable (age))

Let

x ----> the number of rides

y ----> the total cost in dollars

In this problem

The independent variable or input is the number of rides

The dependent variable or output is the total cost

A point x is 34m due to east of a point Y . The bearing of a flagpole from x and Y are N18°W And N40°E respectively .

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The distance of flag post from Y is 38.13 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider point Y at the intersection of both lines as shown below. Now the point X lies 34 meter from point Y in east direction.

Now flag pole at point X lies at a bearing of N18°W. That is at point X from north, flag post makes an angle of 18° towards west.

Similarly flag pole at point Y lies at a bearing of N40°E. That is at point Y from north, flag post makes an angle of 40° towards east.

Consider ∆ AXY as right angle triangle. Therefore measure of angle FXY is,

$\angle AXY=\angle AXF+\angle FXY$

$\therefore 90 \degree=18\degree+\angle FXY$

$\angle FXY=72\degree$

Consider ∆ BYX as right angle triangle. Therefore measure of angle FYX is,

$\angle BYX=\angle BYF+\angle FYX$

$\therefore 90 \degree=40\degree+\angle FYX$

$\angle FYX=50\degree$

Refer attachment 1.

From diagram consider the triangle FYX. To find the third angle that is ∠YFX can be calculated by using angle sum property of triangle.

∠YFX+∠FYX+∠FXY=180°

∠YFX+50°+72°=180°

∠YFX=58°

Refer attachment 2.

Now the distance FY can be calculated using sin rule as follows,

$\frac{\sin X}{FY}=\frac{\sin F}{YX}=\frac{\sin Y}{FX}$

Substituting the values,

$\frac{\sin 72}{FY}=\frac{\sin 58}{34}=\frac{\sin 50}{FX}$

Simplifying first two terms,

$\frac{\sin 72}{FY}=\frac{\sin 58}{34}$

Cross multiplying,

$34\times\sin 72=FY\times \sin 58$

$\dfrac{34\times\sin 72}{\sin 58}=FY$

$FY=38.13$ m

A random sample of 65 high school seniors was selected from all high school seniors at a certain high school. The following scat

ladessa [460]

The residual value comes out to be 2.94 cm and height is 157.06 cm

Explanation:

The regression equation is calculated at the first step.

height = 105.08 plus 2.599 multiply foot length

At foot length = 20cm, height = 105.08 plus 2.599 multiply 20

= 157.06 cm

Residual = Actual minus predicted value = 160 minus 157.06

=2.94 cm

B) The residual standard deviation generally gives a sense of the goodness of fit of goodness of regression equation on our data. The magnitude tells us that how much will be predicted values from model will vary from actual values. the linear model is justified.
