If 19 out of 28 renters keep a pet, there are 28-19 = 9 renters who don't keep a pet.

Whenever you have a subset of some set, and you want to know which percentage of the set the subset represents, you simply have to compute

\dfrac{\text{number of elements in the subset}}{\text{number of elements in the set}}\times 100

So, in your case, you're wondering what percentage of 28 does 9 represent. So, the formula becomes

\dfrac{9}{28}\times 100 = 0.32\overline{142857}\times 100 = 32.\overline{142857} \approx 32.14\%

The tables represent two linear functions in a system.<br><br> What is the solution to this system?
Darya [45]

The solution to this system is (x, y) = (8, -22).

The y-values get closer together by 2 units for each 2-unit increase in x. The difference at x=2 is 6, so we expect the difference in y-values to be zero when we increase x by 6 (from 2 to 8).

You can extend each table after the same pattern.

In table 1, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 8.

In table 2, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 6.

The attachment shows the tables extended to x=10. We note that the y-values are the same (-22) for x=8 (as we predicted above). That means the solution is ...

... (x, y) = (8, -22)

The results of a race car are shown. Determine who drove the fastest. Explain.
monitta

We have to calculate speed for 1 lap for all of 'em.

Cutwright - 84/35 = 2.4 mins for 1 lap

Evans- 96.6/42 = 2.3 mins for 1 lap

Liza- 102.6/38 = 2.7 mins for 1 lap

 So, EVANS drove fastest among them as he took less time...

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Equal df

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a chi square test for goodness of fit is used to examine the distribution of individuals across three categories,

Hence degree of freedom = 3-1 =2

Similarly for a chi-square test for independence is used to examine the distribution of individuals in a 2×3 matrix of categories.

Here degree of freedom = (r-1)(c-1) where r = no of rows and c =no of columns

= (2-1)(3-1) = 2

Thus we find both have equal degrees of freedom.

3 Explain how the distributive property helps us multiply the following polynomials and why and how the final products differ: ●
Pavel [41]
<span>●(a + b)^2 = (a +b) (a +b)

(a + b) (a + b) = a*a + a*b + b*a+ b*b = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

●(a – b)^2 (a - b) (a -b)

(a - b) (a -b) = a*a + -ab - ba + b*b = a^2 - 2ab + b^2

●(a - b)(a + b). =

= (a - b) (a + b) = a*a + ab - ba - b*b = a^2 - b^2
