Let us say that the numbers are x and y. The given clues are:

1. x – y = 16         (so x is the larger number)

2. y / x = 5 / 7

 

rewriting eqtn 2 in terms of y:

y = (5/7) x

 

combining 1 and 2:

x – (5/7) x = 16

(2/7) x = 16

x = 56

 

y = (5/7) x = 40

 

So the two numbers are 56 and 40.

A: $1800+$200 = $2000

Q: How much did Jay's company pay for his insurance premium?

A: $700. If Jay's $350 is 1/3 of the premium , then Jay's company pays 2*$350=$700 as rest of his premium.

Q: Jay paid 10% and the plan paid 90% beyond the deductible. How much did Jay's insurance company pay total?

A: Jay's insurance company paid $16200. Given that Jay paid $1800 beyond his deductible of $200 (and that is 10% of the actual cost) means that his plan (insurance company) paid 90%=9*$1800=$16200.

Q: How much did Jay have to pay total, including his share of the premium?

A: Jay paid $2350. He paid $200 deductible + $1800 beyond deductible + $350 premium

This histogram is skewed to the left and its distribution's center would be three (3).

<h3>What is a histogram?</h3>

A histogram is used to graphically represent a set of data points into user-specified ranges, especially through the use of rectangular bars.

In this scenario, we can infer the following about the histogram distribution's center, spread, and overall shape:

  • This histogram is skewed to the left.
  • Its distribution's center would be three (3).
  • The spread implies that more students are between 58-59 and 60-61 inches.
  • The shape shows that many of the values are at the lower end.

Suppose you are determining the growth rate of two species of plants. Species A ls 25 cm tall and grows 3 cm per month. Species
exis [7]

Answer: Last Option

H (m) = 25 + 3m\\H (m) = 10 + 8m

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial height of the plant of species A is 25 cm and grows 3 centimeters per month.

If m represents the number of months elapsed then the equation for the height of the plant of species A is:

H (m) = 25 + 3m

For species B the initial height is 10 cm and it grows 8 cm each month

If m represents the number of months elapsed then the equation for the height of the plant of species B is:

H (m) = 10 + 8m

Finally, the system of equations is:

H (m) = 25 + 3m\\H (m) = 10 + 8m

The answer is the last option
