The interpretation of<em> </em><em>x</em> in the equation 75•x + 19•y = T, used by the geographer, based on the land area of Aruba, 75 m², and Bermuda, 19 m², is the population in a square mile of Aruba

<h3>Which method can be used to find the interpretation of <em>x </em>in the equation?</h3>

The land area of Aruba = 75 m²

Land area of Bermuda = 19 m²

The total number of residents is given in the question by the equation;

75•x + 19•y = T

Therefore;

x = The number of people in a square mile in Aruba

y = The number of people in a square mile in Bermuda

Which gives;

  • The interpretation of the variable, <em>x </em>in the context is the population of Aruba per square mile.

A kintted pot holder is shaped like a circle. It's radius is 4.5 in. What is the area?
lesya [120]

Answer:

A =63.585 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is found by

A = pi r^2

A = pi (4.5)^2

A = pi(20.25)

We can approximate pi by 3.14

A = (3.14) (20.25)

A =63.585 in^2

Cindy's age, x, is 3 times her age 6 years ago which equation represents the statement x=3(x-6) or x=3-6x or x=3x-6 or x=3x+6
WINSTONCH [101]
Let's denote Cindy's age which is unknown with X
We know that Cindy's age is 3 times her age 6 years ago. 
6 years ago Cindy's age was the present age (X) - 6 : X-6
The fact that the  present age is 3 times her age 6 year ago can be written as:
3*(X-6)
So, finally:
X=3*(X-6)

Hey there I need some assistance need on this problem. What do I mean by checkpoints and how am I supposed to find the y-interce
MakcuM [25]

Slope Formula: y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

(m and slope represent the same quantity)

m = 1 - - 5 / -4 - 0

m = 1 + 5 / -4

m = 6 / -4

m = -3/2

Now that we know the slope, we can plug the slope and one of our points into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) and solve for b. I will be using the point (-4,1).

y = -3/2x + b

1 = -3/2(-4) + b

1 = 6 + b

b = -5

In point form, the y-intercept is (0, -5).

Therefore, to get the equation all we need to do is plug in our slope and b-value to slope-intercept form.

Equation: y = -3/2 x - 5

To check the point (-6, -14) we plug it into our equation and see if the two sides are equal.

-14 = -3/2(-6) - 5

-14 = 9 - 5

-14 = 4

-14 does not equal 4, therefore the point is NOT on the line.

Hope this helps!
