Answer:
There are 3 adults in the family.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations 8x + 4y = 32 and 16x + 12y = 72 represent the cost of lunch and dinner for a family in which x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.
We have to find the number of adults or the value of x by solving these equations.
equations are 8x + 4y = 32 -------(1)
16x + 12y = 72 --------(2)
Now we will multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract it by equation 2.
(16x + 12y) -3(8x + 4y) = 72 - 96
16x + 12y - 24x - 12y = -24
(16x - 24x) + (12y - 12y) = -24
-8x = - 24
8x = 24
x = 3
Therefore, there are 3 adults in the family.
Step-by-step explanation:
a rectangular prism (like this brick) has the same basic structure as a cube (like a die) : it has 6 sides.
while a die has 6 equal sides, a rectangular prism has 3 pairs of equal sides :
top and bottom
left and right
front and back
all we have to do is calculate the areas of the 6 rectangles and add them up. that's it.
your remember, the area of a rectangle is
length × width
in our case we have
top and bottom : 2.5×11.5 × 2 = 28.75×2 = 57.5 in²
left and right : 2.5×5 × 2 = 12.5×2 = 25 in²
front and back : 11.5×5 × 2 = 57.5×2 = 115 in²
so, the total surface area of the whole block is
57.5 + 25 + 115 = 197.5 in²
For a parallel line the slope of the lines/equations will be the same but for perpendicular line the slope will be the negative reciprocal
-(1/4)*x+b
b=2-(-1/4)*8
Step-by-step explanation: To make a line paralle to another, the slope has to be the same such as the "m" in "y=mx+b" the y-intercept or "b" could be different. In this case, the slope is -7. So the question mark should be -7.
Answer:
a) There is suggestive evidence the velvet leaf seed is successful at weed control.
b) Lower bound: 3.699 Upper bound: 6.629
c) Since the confidence interval contains the average percent of seeds to be infected by the beetle (5.164), so we fail to reject the null hypothesis at the specified level of significance.
