The table shows the height of water in a pool as it is being filled. A table showing Height of Water in a Pool with two columns

and six rows. The first column, Time in minutes, has the entries, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. The second column, Height in inches, has the entries, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24. The slope of the line through the points is 2. Which statement describes how the slope relates to the height of the water in the pool? The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute. The height of the water decreases 2 inches per minute. The height of the water was 2 inches before any water was added. The height of the water will be 2 inches when the pool is filled. help me

Answer:

The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is always the ratio of

y coordinate change / x coordinate change

in our case, x is the time (minutes), and y is the water height (inches).

we see, the longer the pool get filled, the higher the water gets. logical, right ?

by checking the data points we see :

with every 2 minutes passing the water height increases by 4 inches.

so, the slope is +4/+2 = 2/1 = 2

and that ratio tells us now the increase of the water height with every fraction or multiple of the measured 2-minute interval.

every 2 minutes 4 inches more.

so, e.g. every 3×2 = 6 minutes we get 3×4 = 12 inches more.

and - every 1/2 × 2 = 1 minute more we get 1/2 × 4 = 2 inches more.

Answer:

A  = 57°

B = 19°

C = 104°

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a triangle with 3 angles:

A, B, and C.

We know that:

"Angle A is 3 times larger than angle B"

We can write this as:

A = 3*B

"Angle C was 10° less than 6 times angle B"

This can be written as:

C = 6*B - 10°

And we also know that the sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180°

Then we also have the equation:

A + B + C = 180°

So we have a system of 3 equations:

A = 3*B

C = 6*B - 10°

A + B + C = 180°

To solve this, the first step is to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations.

We can see that A is already isolated in the first one, so we can skip that step.

Now we need to replace A in the other equations, to get:

C = 6*B - 10°

(3*B) + B + C = 180°

Now we have a system of two equations.

Let's do the same procedure, we can see that C is isolated in the top equation, so we can just replace that in the other equation to get:

3*B + B + (6*B - 10°) = 180°

Now we can solve this for angle B

4*B + 6*B - 10° = 180°

10*B - 10° = 180°

10*B = 180° + 10° = 190°

B = 190°/10 = 19°

Now that we know the measure of angle B, we can input this in the equations:

A = 3*B

C = 6*B - 10°

To find the measures of the other two angles:

A = 3*19° = 57°

C = 6*19° - 10° = 104°

Find the indicated probability. Round to three decimal places. The participants in a television quiz show are picked from a larg
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

0.033

Step-by-step explanation:

Use binomial probability:

P = nCr pʳ (1−p)ⁿ⁻ʳ

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1-p).

Here, p = 0.5, q = 0.5, and n = 11.

We need to find P when r is 0, 1, and 2, then add up the results to get the total probability.

r = 0:

P = ₁₁C₀ (0.5)⁰ (0.5)¹¹⁻⁰

P ≈ 0.0005

r = 1:

P = ₁₁C₁ (0.5)¹ (0.5)¹¹⁻¹

P ≈ 0.0054

r = 2:

P = ₁₁C₂ (0.5)² (0.5)¹¹⁻²

P ≈ 0.0269

Therefore, the total probability is:

P = 0.0005 + 0.0054 + 0.0269

P = 0.0328

Round to the thousandths place, the probability is 0.033.
