When solving this equation , bring -5 to the other side of -14 and add it. It gives -9 and then cancel out for x on both sides so x = -3

Joe’s annual income has been increasing each year by the same dollar amount the first year his income was 19,500. 8 years later
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The question is either poorly constructed or it is a trick question. We do not know "In what year was his income 30,300" because the years correlating to his income are not disclosed.  Even assuming the question was meant to be posed as "how many years later was his income 30,300" it is still flawed.

Step-by-step explanation:

To arrive at Joe's annual income increase, first subtract 19,500 from 27,900 to get 8400, which is his overall increase over the 8 years. Now divide 8400 by 8. You will get 1050.  Beginning with his income of 27,900, add 1,050 to each successive income amount and you will get the following progression:

27,900, 28,950, 30,000, 31,050, 32,100, 33,150, 34,200, 35,250, 36,300.

Therefore, two years after his income was 27,900 it would be 30,000 and 6 years after that it would be 36,300.  It would  never be 30,300.

The correlation coefficient r between a child’s age, x, and the number of minutes spent doing homework each day, y, is 0.694. Wh
jonny [76]
<span>So, they are looking for the percentage that is NOT explained... Well, given the r we can find the percentage that IS explained by it first. That's given by r^2.

</span>Now - let's take the square of r it gives me .481636. That means that about 48% IS explained. Therefore, the part that cannot be explained must be the missing part (out of 100% <span>so 100% - 48.1636% should be it :)
</span>
<span>So 100% - 48.1636% = 0.518364 and we want to round that off to three decimal places which will give us 0.518... and then we could convert that to a percent for the final. So 0.518 as a percentage is 51.8%! s</span>

What is the value of x in the equation 2x + 1/2x + 2(1+x) = 29?
erica [24]

Answer:

<h2>x = 6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

2x  +  \frac{1}{2} x + 2(1 + x) = 29

Multiply through by 2

That's

4x + x + 4(1 + x) = 58

<u>Expand</u>

That's

5x + 4 + 4x = 58

9x = 58 - 4

9x = 54

Divide both sides by 9

That's

\frac{9x}{9}  =  \frac{54}{9}

We have the final answer as

<h3>x = 6</h3>

Hope this helps you
