Answer:

Word problems with linear equations (that is, with straight-line models) almost always work this way: the slope is the rate of change, and the y-intercept is the starting value.

A certain club has $50$ people, and $4$ members are running for president. Each club member votes for one of the $4$ candidates.
erastova [34]

Answer:

The number of different possible vote totals is 184.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that there are <em>N</em> = 50 people in a club.

The position of President is open. And there are <em>x</em> = 4 members running for he post of President.

So, there are <em>n</em> = <em>N</em> - <em>x</em> = 50 - 4 = 46 people voting for these 4 members.

Each member of the club has <em>x</em> = 4 possible choices.

So, the number of different possible vote totals are:

Number of different possible votes = <em>n</em> × <em>x</em>

                                                           = 46 × 4

                                                           = 184

Thus, the number of different possible vote totals is 184.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

  • <u>22 counselors</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Ratio of campers to counselors in june:</u>

  • number of campers: 325

  • number of counselors: 26

  • Ratio = number of campers / number of counselors

  • Ratio = 325 campers / 26 counselors

<u />

<u>2. Ratio of campers to counselors in july:</u>

  • number of campers = 325 - 265 + 215 = 275

  • number of counselors = x (unknown)

  • Ratio = 275 campers / x

<u />

<u>3. Equivalent ratios:</u>

  • 325 campers / 26 counselors = 275 campers / x

Solve for x:

  • x = (26counselors/325campers) × 275campers = 22 counselors ← answer

Distinguish between rote and rational counting​
sergejj [24]

Answer: There is a difference between rote counting and rational counting. Rote counting involves the memorization of numbers. Rational counting tells children "how many there are." For children to count rationally, they need to demonstrate one-to-one correspondence.

To make f continuous at x=2 , f(2) should be defined as what value? Justify your answer.
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

To make f continuous at x=2, f(2) should be defined x = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function, let say f(x), is defined at x = c is continuous at x = c

If the limit of f(x) as x approaches c is equal to the value of f(x) at  x = c.

Mathematically it is written as:

if

\lim _{x\to c}\:f\left(x\right)=f\left(c\right)

then

f(x) is continuous at  x = c.

So from the above definition, we conclude that:

To make f continuous at x=2, f(2) should be defined x = 2.

i.e.

if

\lim _{x\to 2}\:f\left(x\right)=f\left(2\right)

then

f(x) is continuous at  x = 2.
