If you interpret the question as is, the answer is in the thousands, which is not listed. The last part of the question should read 'the number of new cases doubled from those newly identified cases from the day prior. The question is very poorly phrased.

Day 1 : 5
Day 2: 5 + 10
Day 3: 15 + 20
Day 4: 35 + 40
Day 5: 75 + 80
Day 6: 155 + 160

Which is 315 at the end of 6th day

A line passes through the point (4,-2) and has a slope of 1/2 what is the value of a if the point (-4,a) is also on the line
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:  The value of a is -6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we need to find the y-intercept first.

-2= 4(1/2) + b

-2=2+ b

-2  -2

b= -4  so now the y-intercept is -4  so we will now have the equation y= 1/2x -4

so now put -4 into the equation for x and solve for y.

y= 1/2(-4) -4

y = -6

What is 56.398 rounded to the nearest tenth?
Vesna [10]
Well when you round to the nearest 10 it will be 1 number after the point (this is due to that 10 only has one 0.) now we know that if there is a number bigger than 5 besides the number they ask you in this case the first after the point you will add 1 to that number. in this case you will add 1 to the 3. this will give you the answer of 56.4

Hope this helps
