Hello thee i hope you are having good day :) Your Question: 15-foot piece of string is cut into two pieces so that the longer piece is 3 feet longer than twice the shorter piece. If the shorter piece is x feet long, find the lengths  of both pieces.

so firstly you would do  L = 3 + 2x  S = x  X + (3 + 2x) = 15  X + 3 + 2x = 15

3x + 3 = 15  then you would take away that 3x = 15 - 3  this would equal 12 so x = 4 and then add it 3+ 2x = 3+2 (4) = 3 + 8 = 11   Short piece is 4 feet  Long piece is 11 feet.

Hopefully that helps you ❤

Ona took a random sample of 20 soccer teams across Europe. She tracked the average number of goals
anygoal [31]

The predicted number of wins for a team that averages 1.5 goals per game will be 17 according to the regression model.

From the table given, the linear regression model for the data can be expressed as :

  • y = 14.02x - 3.64 ; where ;
  • y = Predicted number of wins ;
  • x = average number of goals per match ;
  • slope = 14.02 ;
  • Intercept = - 3.64

<u>The Number of wins for a team which averages 1.5 goals per match can be calculated thus</u> :

Average goals per match, x = 1.5

Substitute x = 1.5 into the equation :

y = 14.02(1.5) - 3.64

y = 17.39

y = 17 (nearest whole number)

write a slope intercept equation for a line passing through the point (2,-2) that is parallel and perpendicular to the line x=-1
vekshin1

You would need two different lines to complete this as lines cannot be both parallel and perpendicular (these are opposites). The answers would be:

Parallel: x = 2

Perpendicular: y = -2

In order to find these, we first need to see that the original line of x = -1 is a horizontal line. Therefore, any line that is parallel should be horizontal as well. To get a horizontal line through the point (2, -2), the only option is x = 2.

Similarly, with the perpendicular line, if the original line is horizontal, the new line must be vertical. The only vertical line that goes through (2, -2) is y = -2.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

The answer is 600.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 5 percent of 800 is 40. 800+40 = 840. 15 percent of 800 is 160. 840 - 160 is 680. 10 percent of 800 is 80. 680 - 80 is 600.
