<span>Jerry is 8 years younger than Patricia, so: (1): Jerry = Patricia - 8 Six years ago, Patricia was 3 times as old as Jerry was then, so: (2): (Patricia - 6) = (Jerry - 6)*3 Putting equation 1 in to equation 2 (Patricia - 6) = (Patricia - 8 - 6)*3 Patricia - 6 = 3Patricia - 42 36 = 2Patricia Patricia = 18 And so Jerry = 10</span>

"Increasing" and "decreasing" are references to what the y-values do when the x-values increase.  

Attached is a copy of all four tables, marked with whether the y-values increased or decreased on each step (and it also shows how much that increase or decrease was.

The only table that does this is the top right table in the attachment, which is your second table.

Employees salary [$}: 30,000, 30,000, 35,000, 35,000, 40,000, 40,000.

CEO Salary: $70,000.

The correct answer is this: BOTH JAN AND MARCY ARE CORRECT.

Jan says the employee average salary is $35,000. This is correct as shown below:

Average employee salary = 30,000 + 30,000 + 35,000 +35,000 + 40,000 + 40,000 / 6 = 210 / 6 =  $35,000.

Marcy says the average salary of all company members is $40,000. This is also true as shown below.

Average salary of all company members = 30,000 + 30,000 +35,000 + 35,000 + 40,000 + 40,000 + 70,000 / 7 = 280 / 7 = $40,000.

Hi!! Please help me with this question. I got an answer of 63.25 but it was incorrect and need to redo it. Please also explain h
matrenka [14]

Answer:

x ≈ 63.27

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan49° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{EF}{DE} = \frac{x}{55} ( multiply both sides by 55 )

55 × tan49° = x , then

x ≈ 63.27 ( to the nearest hundredth )
