Make is a proportion
6/18=28/x
Cross multiply
18•28=6•x
504=6x
x=84

Which equation represents the graphed function?

Alika [10]

Answer:

y = -1/3x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (2-3)/(3-0)

-1/3

Then we know the y intercept( where it crosses the y axis)

It crosses at y=3

The slope intercept form is

y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -1/3x +3

Cristine's middle school has a total of 900 students and 45 teachers. The local high school has 110 teachers and a student-teach

frozen [14]

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

900 students 45 teachers
------------------ = -----------------
x 110 teachers

Cross multiplying, we get (900)(110) / 45, or

so x = # of students in the high school = 2200 (answer)

A 90% confidence interval for the mean percentage of airline reservations being canceled on the day of the flight is (1.1%, 3.2%

defon

Error = 1/2(Maximum range - Minimum range) = 1/2(3.2-1.1) = % = 0.0105

If p is the point estimator;

Then,
Minimum range = p - Error
Maximum range = p + Error

Solving one of the two expressions,
0.011 = p - 0.0105 => p = 0.011+0.0105 = 0.0215 = 2.15%

What value for c will make the expression a perfect square trinomial? x2 – 7x + c negative StartFraction 49 Over 4 EndFraction n

puteri [66]

Answer: $c=\frac{49}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the value of "c" that will make it a perfect square trinomial by Completing the square.

Given the following expression provided in the exercise:

$x^2 - 7x + c$

You can notice that it is written in this form:

$ax^2-bx+c$

Then, you can identify that the coefficient "b" is:

$b=-7$

Since to complete the square you must add and subtract the half of square of coefficient "b", you can conclude that:

$c=(\frac{b}{2})^2$

Therefore, substituting "b" into $c=(\frac{b}{2})^2$ , you get:

$c=(\frac{-7}{2})^2\\\\c=\frac{49}{4}$

on monday, it took 3 builders 5 1/2 hours to build a wall. an identical wall needs to be built on tuesday and 5 builders are ava

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

£29.37

Step-by-step explanation:

→ First step is to find the amount of hours it takes for 5 builders

$\frac{3*\frac{11}{2} }{5} =\frac{33}{2} /5=\frac{33}{2} *\frac{1}{5} =\frac{33}{10} =3\frac{3}{10}$

→ Now we know how long 5 builder takes we need to multiply the hourly rate by their time worked

$3\frac{3}{10} *8.90=\frac{33}{10} *8.90=3.3*8.90 = 29.37$
