4.2x - 1.4y = 2.1
-1.4y = -4.2x + 2.1
y = (-4.2/-1.4)x + 2.1/-1.4
y = 3x - 1.5 <==

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The value of y is:

         y=3x-1.5

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a equation in terms of variable x and y as follows:

4.2x-1.4y=2.1

Now, we are asked to solve for y i.e. we are asked to find the value of y in terms of x and constant.

Now, we subtract 4.2x on both the sides of the equation to obtain:

          -1.4y=2.1-4.2x

On dividing both side of the equation by (-1.4) we get:

y=\dfrac{2.1}{-1.4}-\dfrac{4.2x}{-1.4}\\\\y=-1.5+3x\\\\i.e.\\\\y=3x-1.5

icang [17]

Answer:

No, unless the function decides to follow a different pattern. See more explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

He is wrong, the table doesn't tell us what happens at x=6.

It does tell us the following:

1) When x=-4, f(x)=6.

2) When x=-2, f(x)=3.

3) When x=0, f(x)=-1.

4) When x=2, f(x)=-4.

So maybe he got it the x and f(x) value switched in his brain.

Because according to 1) x=-4 when f(x)=6.

If the points keep having x increase while y decreases, then every x>2 will have a y less than -4 correspond to it.

The owner of a fish market determined that the mean weight for a catfish is 3.2 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.8 pound. A
madam [21]

Answer: The probability that a randomly selected catfish will weigh between 3 and 5.4 pounds is 0.596

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the weights of catfish are assumed to be normally distributed,

we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = weights of catfish.

µ = mean weight

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 3.2 pounds

σ = 0.8 pound

The probability that a randomly selected catfish will weigh between 3 and 5.4 pounds is is expressed as

P(x ≤ 3 ≤ 5.4)

For x = 3

z = (3 - 3.2)/0.8 = - 0.25

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.401

For x = 5.4

z = (5.4 - 3.2)/0.8 = 2.75

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.997

Therefore,.

P(x ≤ 3 ≤ 5.4) = 0.997 - 0.401 = 0.596

Today the price of a Jeep is $25,000. In 1970, the price was $5,000. What's the price relative?
asambeis [7]

Solution:

we are given with

Today the price of a Jeep is $25,000. In 1970, the price was $5,000.

So we can write

The price of a Jeep, today = $25,000

The price of a Jeep,in 1970 = $ 5,000

Relative Price means price of a good relative to other. Its a ratio of the two goods times 100.

Price   \ \ relative =\frac{25000}{5000}*100\\ \\ \  Price   \ \ relative =5*100=500\\ \\

Hence the price relative is $500/-
