Select the correct answer. In which of the scenarios can you reverse the dependent and independent variables while keeping the i

nterpretation of the slope meaningful? A. As the number of cigarettes smoked in a day increases, the risk for lung cancer increases. B. As the age of an infant increases, the height of the infant increases. C. As the number of vehicles in a city increases, the amount of pollution in the city increases. D. As the concentration of salt in water increases, the density of water increases. E. As the number of calls made by a cell phone increases, the cell phone bill amount increases. Reset Next

Answer:

In Option A, we can see that the reverse may not be true as the increase in the risk for lung cancer may not necessarily mean an increase in cigarette smoked in a day. For example, high risk of lung cancer may be due to high exposure to asbestos dust too.

In Option B, again we can see that the reverse may not be true as an increase in the height of an infant does not necessarily mean that the age of the infant is increasing too. For example the infant may have a rapid gain in height even if the age is not increasing as rapidly.

In Option C, too, that an increase in the amount of pollution in a city does necessarily mean that the number of vehicles in the city has increased. For example, this increase in pollution may be due to the establishment of a high pollution causing industry in the city or in it's vicinity.

Likewise, in Option D, an increase in the density of water does not necessarily mean that the concentration of salt in the water has increased.

Only in Option E do we see a possible reverse dependence happening because an increase in the phone bill amount does usually mean an increase in the number of calls made by the cell phone.

So, in the given list of Options only in Option E can we reverse the dependent and independent variables while keeping the interpretation of the slope meaningful.

2x -2 = -200 <br><br><br> whats the value of x
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 2 = - 200

Bringing like terms on one side

2x = - 200 + 2 = - 198

2x = - 198

x = - 198/2 = - 99

Can someone help me with these please?

Point-slope form: y-y1 = m(x-x1)

Standard form: ax + by = c

Slope-intercept form: y = mx+b


Start by finding the slope. We know it is negative since the line is decreasing. The slope is -4/3.


To create point-slope form, we need to get one point from the graph. Let's use (3,0).

y = -\frac{4}{3}(x-3)


To create slope-intercept form, we need the slope and the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the point where our equation crosses the y-axis. For this equation, it is 4.

y = -\frac{4}{3}x + 4


To get standard form, solve the equation in terms of C.


Point-slope form: y = -4/3(x-3)

Slope-intercept form: y = -4/3x + 4

Standard form: 4/3x + y = 4

Solve for w.<br> -3(-8w+1) -w=5(w-1)-1<br> Simplify your answer as much as possible.<br> W =
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

W = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(-8w+1) - w = 5(w-1) - 1 -> (Original equation)

24w - 3 - w = 5w - 5 - 1 -> (Expanded version)

23w - 3 = 5w - 6 -> (Simplified version)

18w - 3 = - 6 -> (Subtract 5w from both sides)

18w = - 3 -> (Add 3 to both sides)

w = 18/-3 which is - 6 -> (Doing 18/-3)
