In this question the answer is x is equal to exactly 1.749... Or 1.75
A closed circle means that value is included, and an open circle means that value is excluded.
Example:
x > 2 ---- Graphed with an open circle, everything greater than but not including 2
x ≤ 3 ------ Graphed with a closed circle, everything less than and including 3
Answer:
a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.
Answer:
<h3>x = 22/7</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
22x + 1 = 8
Send 1 to the right side of the equation
22x = 8 - 1
22x = 7
Divide both sides by 22
x = 7/22
