Given that E is a point between Point D and F, the numerical value of segment DE is 46.

<h3>What is the numerical value of DE?</h3>

Given the data in the question;

  • E is a point between point D and F.
  • Segment DF = 78
  • Segment DE = 5x - 9
  • Segment EF = 2x + 10
  • Numerical value of DE = ?

Since E is a point between point D and F.

Segment DF = Segment DE + Segment EF

78 = 5x - 9 + 2x + 10

78 = 7x + 1

7x = 78 - 1

7x = 77

x = 77/7

x = 11

Hence,

Segment DE = 5x - 9

Segment DE = 5(11) - 9

Segment DE = 55 - 9

Segment DE = 46

Given that E is a point between Point D and F, the numerical value of segment DE is 46.

A local television station for a city with a population of 500,000 recently conducted a poll where they invited viewers to call
Scilla [17]

Answer:

b. Invalid, because the sample may not be representative of the population.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sample of around 10% of the population is needed to be representative.

In this question:

We have a population of 500,000, and a sample of 10,000.

10,000/500,000 = 1/50 = 0.02 = 2% of the population, so not representative, and option b is correct.

What number equals 2 4/5?<br> O 0.28<br> O 0.357<br> O 2.45<br> O 2.8
Travka [436]

I think its 2.8.

Reason why:

4/5 = 0.8

Then the 2 would a whole number...

so 2.8.

Solve the system of equations using row operations. Write your answer in the form (x, y).
Sonja [21]

Answer:

(5, - 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = - 2 → (1)

3x - y = 19 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

9x - 3y = 57 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

(2x + 9x) + (3y - 3y) = (- 2 + 57), that is

11x = 55 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

2(5) + 3y = - 2

10 + 3y = - 2 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

3y = - 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = - 4

Solution is (5, - 4 )

The population of a certain city was 112,000 in 1998, and the observed relative growth rate is 4% per year. (a) Find a function
Zanzabum

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Now;

From;

P=Poe^kt

Where;

P = population at time=t

Po = population initially present

k = growth rate

t = time taken

a) The function is;

P= 112,000e^0.04t

b) In the year 2004, the population will be

P= 112,000e^0.04(6)

P= 142380

c) 200,000 =112,000 e^0.04t

200,000/112,000 =  e^0.04t

1.786 = e^0.04t

ln 1.786 = ln e^0.04t

ln 1.786= 0.04t

t = ln 1.786/0.04

t = 14.5 years
