Let's form an equation in the terms of Ellmore. E will be for Ellmore.
E+ 12E=9,646
13E=9,646
Let's divide each side by 13.
9,646÷13
742
So, that means there is a population of 742. Linton is 12 times as much as Ellmore. Let's multiply.
742×12
8,904
There are 8,904 people in Linton.

Your ratio would be 12:1
Add all the parts to get the whole
13x=9646
find x by dividing by 13 you get 742 now just plug x in 12x=12x742
Linton population is 8904

The equation x 2y = 16 is in standard form. what is the slope of the line? â€""2 â€""1 â€""0.5 0.5
Savatey [412]

By rewriting the given line, we can see that the slope is equal to -1/2 or -0.5

<h3>How to get the slope of the given line?</h3>

Remember that a line is:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line, which is the point where the line intersects the y-axis.

Then, we can rewrite our equation:

x + 2y = 16

to:

2y = 16 - x

y = (16 - x)/2

y = (-1/2)*x + 8

Comparing with the general line equation, we can see that the slope is -1/2.

**A rock dropped from a 100 foot tower.
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

2.83 s

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

h(t)=-16t^2+10t+100

When a rock reached the ground then h(t)=0

-16t^2+10t+100=0

16t^2-10t-100=0

Using quadratic formula

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

t=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{(-10)^2-4\times 16\times (-100)}}{2(16)}

t=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{100+6400}}{32}

t=\frac{10+\sqrt{6500}}{32}=2.83

t=\frac{10-\sqrt{6500}}{32}=-2.2

Time cannot be negative .Therefore, negative value of t can not be possible.

Hence, the rock takes 2.83 sec to reach the ground.

The level of a lake in inches is falling linearly . The lake level is 452 inches on Jan 1 and then 378 inches on Jan 21. Find a
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

y=-\frac{74}{21}x+452

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The level of a lake is falling linearly.

On Jan 1, the level is 452 inches

On Jan 21, the level is 378 inches.

Now, a linear function can be represented in the form:

y=mx+b

Where, 'm' is the rate of change and 'b' is initial level

x\to number\ of\ days\ passed\ since\ Jan\ 1

y\to Lake\ level

So, let Jan 1 corresponds to the initial level and thus b = 452 in

Now, the rate of change is given as the ratio of the change in level of lake to the number of days passed.

So, from Jan 1 to Jan 21, the days passed is 21.

Change in level = Level on Jan 21 - Level on Jan 1

Change in level = 378 in - 452 in = -74 in

Now, rate of change is given as:

m=\frac{-74}{21}

Hence, the function to represent the lake level is y=-\frac{74}{21}x+452

Where, 'x' is the number of days passed since Jan 1.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: 3424.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data : 378, 361, 350, 375, 200, 391, 375, 368,  321

Number of data values = 9

Mean :\overline{x}=\dfrac{\sum^n_{i=1} x_i}{n}

\\\\=\dfrac{378+361+350+375+200+391+375+368+321}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{3119}{9}\approx346.56

Variance = \dfrac{\sum^n_{i=1} (x_i-\overline{x})^2}{n-1}

\sum^n_{i=1} (x_i-\overline{x})^2 = (31.44)^2+(14.44)^2+(3.44)^2+(28.44)^2+(-146.56)^2+(44.44)^2+(28.44)^2+(21.44)^2+(-25.56)^2\\\\=27394.2224

Variance = \dfrac{27394.2224}{8}=3424.2775\approx3424.28
