Based on the fact that the radius of the snowball increases by 0.36 inches every second, the linear function can be found to be y = 0.36x + 1.66

<h3>How to find the linear function?</h3>

The linear function is the function that shows how to change in the rate of the independent variable would affect the rate of change in the dependent variable.

The linear function takes the form:

y = mx + b

y = dependent variable

m = slope or change in radius of snowball

x = seconds

b = y-intercept

Solving for the y-intercept gives:

3.1 = 0.36(4) + b

b = 3.1 - 1.44

= 1.66

The linear function is therefore:

y = 0.36x + 1.66

Solve the system of equations. y = 2x y = x 2 – 15
inn [45]

Answer:

D. (–3, –6) and (5, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The system has equations:

y=2x...(1)

and

y=x^2-15...(2)

Equate both equations;

x^2-15=2x

Rewrite in standard form:

x^2-2x-15=0

We factor to obtain:

(x+3)(x-5)=0

By the zero product principle;

(x+3)=0,(x-5)=0

\implies x=-3,x=5

When x=-3, y=2(-3)=-6

This yields the ordered pair (-3,-6).

When x=5, y=2(5)=10

This yields the ordered pair (5,10).

The correct choice is D.

You need to solve a system of equations. You decide to use the elimination method. Which of these is not allowed? 2x - 3y = 12
suter [353]

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Elimination Method is the method for solving a pair of linear equations which reduces one equation to one that has only a single variable.

If the coefficients of one variable are opposites, you add the equations to eliminate a variable, and then solve.

If the coefficients are not opposites, then we multiply one or both equations by a number to create opposite coefficients, and then add the equations to eliminate a variable and solve.

When multiplying the equation by a coefficient, we multiply both sides of the equation (multiplying both sides of the equation by some nonzero number does not change the solution).

So, option B is not allowed (it is not allowed to multiply only one part of the equation)

The bar diagram represents 24 hours in one day and shows a mark at 30%If you sleep 30% of the day, how many hours do you sleep?
horrorfan [7]

Let:

100%---------------->24h

30%------------------>xh

Using cross multiplication:

\begin{gathered} \frac{100}{30}=\frac{24}{x} \\ solve_{\text{ }}for_{\text{ }}x\colon \\ x=\frac{30\cdot24}{100} \\ x=\frac{720}{100}=7.2h \end{gathered}
