(PLEASE HELP 15 POINTS I HAVE 7 MINS) explain your awnser what are the x- and the y-interceptions of 3x - 2y = 18

Mathematics

S_A_V [24]3 years ago
4 0

The given equation is

3x-2y=18

x intercept

To find the x intercept, we have to plug 0 for y and solve for x.That is

3x-2(0)=18
\\
3x=18
\\
x=6

So x intercept is (6,0) .

y intercept

To find the y intercept , we have to plug 0 for x and solve for y. That is

3(0)-2y=18
\\
-2y=18
\\
y=-9

So the y intercept is (0,-9) .

For ever 4 inches, you have 25 miles. Therefore if you have only one, you multiply to find the other. Now, since you have miles, you need to find inches. Therefore, 120 divided by 4, because every 4 inches is equal to 25 miles. Your answer should be 30 inches

Which technique for gathering data (observational study or experiment) do you think was used in the following studies?(a) The Co
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

For question a, the correct option is: This is an observational study because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.

For question b, the correct option is: This is an experiment because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.

For question c, the correct option is: This is an experiment because a treatment was deliberately imposed on the individuals in order to observe a possible change in the response or variable being measured.

For question d, the correct option is: This is an observational study because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.

Step-by-step explanation: To give us a background on why the options above were chosen, let us see the difference between Observational study and Experimental study.

In an observational study, the researcher draws inferences from an independent variable that is not under his/her control. While in an experimental study, there in an intervention and the effects of the intervention are studied.

Therefore, in the questions a to d above, all we need to do is identity which variables were influenced and which were merely observed.

For question a, the variables were only observed.

For question b, the variables were influenced.

For question c, the variables were also influenced.

For question d, the variables were merely observed.

Create an equivalent expression by simplifying the expression below.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- \frac{1}{2} [ - \frac{3}{2} c + 6c + 1 ] - 3c

Distribute the square bracket by - \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{3}{4} c - 3c - \frac{1}{2} - 3c ← combine like terms

= \frac{3}{4} c - 6c - \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{3}{4} c - \frac{24}{4} c - \frac{1}{2}

= - \frac{21}{4} c - \frac{1}{2}

Which graph represents the solution to the system of inequalities? x + y ≥ 4 2x + 3y < 12
viktelen [127]
There are two inequality equations to be graphed:

<span>x + y ≥ 4
2x + 3y < 12

For the first step, let's disregard the inequality symbols and take it like any conventional algebraic equation. This is to be able to graph the lines on a Cartesian planes first.

For the first equation, x+y=4. To find the x- and y-intercepts, let the other variable be 0. For example,
x-intercept:
x+0=4
x=4
y-intercept:
0+y=4
y=4
Therefore, you can graph the equation line by plotting the intercepts (4,0) and (0,4) and connecting them together. The same thing is done to the second equation:
x-intercept: 
</span>2x + 0 = 12
x=12/2=6
y-intercept:
0 + 3y =12
y= 12/3 = 4
Therefore, you can graph the equation line by plotting the intercepts (6,0) and (0,4) and connecting them together. The graph is shown in the left side of the picture.

The next step would be testing the inequalities. Let's choose a point that does not coincide with the lines. That point could be (-5,-1). 

x + y ≥ 4
-5 + -1 ≥4
-6 ≥ 4 --> this is not true. Thus, the solution of the graph must not include the area of this point. It includes everything to the right of the line denoted by the blue-shaded region.

2x + 3y < 12
2(-5) + 3(-1) <12
-13 < 12 ---> this is true. Thus, the solution would include this point. That includes all points to the left of the orange line denoted by the orange-shaded the region.

The region where blue and orange overlap is the solution of the system of equations, denoted by the green-shaded region.
