Answer:
4 number
Step-by-step explanation:
number of apples purchased to the cost of the apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Part C: Of the following choices, which equation is the best fit line for the data
As we can see from the data, the population size are decreased year by year, so the slope of the line of best fit must be a negative number.
So we have: C and D left.
Let x = 0, year 2005, the population size is 296 around 320, hence, we choose D.
D f(x) = -34x + 320
Part D: What is the predicted population size for the year 2010? How does that compare to the real data? Round to the nearest million.
year 2010, x =5 so let substitute x =5 into f(x) = -34x + 320
<=> f(x) = -34*5 + 320
= 150 mil
The result is smaller than the real data, (201-150 = 51 mil)
Part E: In what year is the population predicted to go extinct
the population predicted to go extinct when f(x)= 0
<=> -34x + 320 = 0
<=> x ≈ 9.4
So after 10 years, the the population predicted to go extinct
Let the 1st number be x; 2nd number be y; 3rd number be z.
x + y + z = 79
x = number we are looking for.
y = x * 5 ==> 5 times the first
z = x + 16 ==> 16 more than the first
Therefor,
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
1st step, multiply the 2nd number: x * 5 = 5x
x + 5x + x + 16 = 79
Add all like numbers:
7x + 16 = 79
To get x, transfer 16 to the other side and change its sign from positive to negative.
7x = 79 - 16
7x = 63
To get x, divide both sides by 7
7x/7 = 63/7
x = 9
To check. Substitute x by 9.
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
9 + (9 * 5) + (9 + 16) = 79
9 + 45 + 25 = 79
79 = 79 equal. value of x is correct.
No, a bias question is when the speaker is predisposed to accept one particular answer as the right.
Answer:
the answer is x = -6 and x =5
