R = rate of growth of raindrop vine = 0.75 feet/day

we know that :  1 feet = 12 inches

1 day = 24 hours

replacing the units accordingly in the above expression for rate of growth of raindrop vine

R = 0.75 (feet/day)  (12 inches/1 feet) (1 day/24 hours)

R = (0.75 x 12 /24) (inches/hour)

R = 0.375 inches/hour

What is the distributive property of 24+40
Scorpion4ik [409]
(20+40)+4

So basically the easiest way to remember is for example:
Normal: 69+45
Distributive property: (60+40)+9+5
———————————————————
So if you have 24 you need to distribute the numbers to make them into tens. That’s how you get 4.

I didn’t explain it very well but hope it helped a little bit.

A card is selected randomly from a jar that contains 15 cards, numbered from 25 to 39. What is the probability that the card sel
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34 is 0.3333.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let random variable <em>X</em> be defined as the number on the selected card.

There are <em>N</em> = 15 total cards.

The number on the cards are as follows:

S = {25, 26, 27,..., 38, 39}

The probability of an event, <em>E</em> is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

P(E)=\frac{n(E)}{N}

In this case we need to compute the probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34.

The favorable outcomes are:

<em>s</em> = {25, 36, 37, 38, 39}

<em>n</em> (X < 34) = 5

Compute the probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34 as follows:

P(X

                  =\frac{5}{15}\\\\=\frac{1}{3}\\\\=0.3333

Thus, the probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34 is 0.3333.

The scatter plot shows the profit by the month for a new company during its first year of operation. Which equation most closely
kondor19780726 [428]

The equation most closely models the line of best fit for the scatter plot is y = 2.5x

<h3>Equation of a line</h3>

A line is the distance between two points. The equation of a line in point-slope form is given as y =mx + b

  • m is the slope
  • b is the intercept


Using the coordinate points on the line (3, 5000) and (9, 20000)

Get the slope

Slope = 20000-5000/9-3
Slope = 15000/6 = 2500

Determine the y-intercept

5000 = 2500(3) + b

b = 5000 - 7500
b = -2500

Determine the equation

y = 2.5x - 2.5

Hence the equation most closely models the line of best fit for the scatter plot is y = 2.5x

Which of these graphs represents a function
azamat
Answer: C.

Explanation: A function only has one y value for every x value. This means that an x cannot have more than one y value. You can do the vertical line test on graphs to figure out if it is a function or not. In this case, graph C is the only one that passes the vertical line test.

In the rectangle below, SU= 4x-2, RT = 5x-10, and m ZSVT= 84º.
stepladder [879]

Answer:

RV = 15, ∠ VUR = 48°

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent , so

RT = SU , that is

5x - 10 = 4x - 2 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

x - 10 = - 2 ( add 10 to both sides )

x = 8

Then

RT = 5x - 10 = 5(8) - 10 = 40 - 10 = 30

The diagonals bisect each other , then

RV = 0.5 × 30 = 15

---------------------------------------------------------------

∠ RVU = ∠ svt = 84° ( vertical angles )

RV = UV ( diagonals are congruent and bisect each other )

Then Δ RVU is isosceles with base angles congruent , then

∠ VUR = \frac{180-84}{2} = \frac{96}{2} = 48°
