Solution:

Given:

Fact 1 - If a whale has exactly one nostril (also called a blowhole), then that whale has teeth.

Fact 2 - some whales have two nostrils.

From the above statements;

If a whale has teeth, then that whale has exactly one nostril. This is NOT TRUE because there are some whales that have two nostrils.

If a whale has two nostrils, then that whale has teeth. This is also NOT TRUE because there are some whales that have one nostril and have teeth.

If a whale has teeth, then that whale has two nostrils. This is NOT TRUE because if a whale has exactly one nostril, then that whale has teeth.

Therefore, none of the preceding three conclusions follows logically from the two given facts.

Answer:

18 and 65

Step-by-step explanation:

under 18 would be 17 and under, therefore not including 18 year olds. obviously they are not 19 yet either, so they wouldn't fall into either category, therefore they may be unsure of what to answer.

same with 65 year olds; they are more than 64 year old, but not yet /over/ 65, therefore they would not fit into either category either.

Solve the equation -25+4y=35
borishaifa [10]
-25+4y=35
*Subtract 35*
-25+4y-35=0
*add 25 (to cancel out)*
4y-35=25
*add 35 (to cancel out)*
4y=60
*Divide by 4 to get y on its own*
y=15
Hope this helps :)

Tell whether the function shows growth or decay and why. f(x) = 6(1.2)x
Inga [223]

This function shows growth because the value that the base value of 6 is being multiplied by is 1.2. If the multiplication value is greater than 1, the function will grow. However, if it is less than 1, the function will decay.
