Answer:

1/64

Step-by-step explanation:

10 = ½

20 = ¼

30 = ⅛

40 = 1/16

50 = 1/32

60 = 1/64

Answer:

0.015625 left.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we start with say 100g of the material, in 10 years there is 100 * 1/2 =

50g left   ( = 0.5 left).

In 20 years there is 100*(1/2)^2 = 25 g  left.

In n*10 years there is  100(1/2)^2 g

So in 60 years there is 100(1/2)^6 = 1.5625 g left

This is 1.5625 %

= 0.015625 of the origin material left.

bonufazy [111]

Answer: strong positive correlafion between data plan size 'x' and number of text messages sent 'y'

Step-by-step explanation:

'R' in statistics is used to denote correlation Coefficient. The correlation Coefficient is a value which ranges between -1 to +1. It tells us the level of relationship or correlation which exists between the relative movement of two variables, in this case the relationship between data plan size and the number of text messages sent in the US. R value of 0 depicts that no relationship exists between the two variables, R value closer the R value is to +1 and - 1 depicts the strength of positive and negative correlation of the two variables respectively.

A R value of +0.97 in the context above, depicts a strong positive correlation between data plan size and number of text messages sent in the US. That is large data size usually corresponds to large number of text messages and vice versa.

Find the distance between the points.<br><br> (5,-2),(-6,-2)
damaskus [11]
As they are both on the same y axis, (-2), that means you just need to find the difference between 5 and - 6 which is 11. Therefore the answer is 11 units. Hope this helps! :)

Identify an equation in point-slope form for the line perpendicular to y = –4x – 1 that passes through (–2, 7).
Harlamova29_29 [7]
To get a perpendicular line, your slopes will equal -1 when multiplied...this means if we multiply - 4 x (1/4), we get out slope to use for the next step.

Y - Y1 = M(X - X1)    passes through (-2, 7)
Y - 7 = 1/4(X - (-2))
Y - 7 = 1/4(X + 2)
Y - 7 = 1/4X + 1/2
   +7              + 7
Y = 1/4X + 7.5
