Answer: A) 0.5 pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the actual or the ideal measure of the weight of the box  and E be the error .

Given : Beatriz determined the margin of error as 23.5 pounds to 24.5 pounds.

Then , we have the following equations :-

x-E=23----------------------(1)\\\\ x+E=24.5----------------(2)

Subtract (1) from (2) , we get

2E=24.5-23.5\\\\|rightarrow\ 2E=1\\\\\Rightarrow\ E=\dfrac{1}{2}=0.5

Hence, the greatest possible error for her actual measurement was 0.5 pounds

What is the sum of all the angles that are labeled?
Tasya [4]

Based on the information provided, the sum of all the labeled angles is 235° (option b).

<h3>How to calculate the sum of all labeled angles?</h3>

To calculate the sum of all the labeled angles we must add the different values of each labeled angle as shown below:

80° + 92° + 40° + 23° = 235°

According to the above, it can be inferred that the correct option is B because the result of the sum of the values coincides with this sum.

HELP PLEASE?

I know that just the answer is not enough. You need to understand why and how. So I will explaing the steps.

First you need to state the equation that represents the function.

Investment is $200 and interest rate is 5%, y is the amount of money after x periods.

Note that after 1 period the amount of money is 200 plus 5% interest, which is 200 + 5%(200) = 200 (1 +5%) = 200 (1 + 0.05) = 200 (1.05)

After 2 periods the amount is 200(1.05)*(1.05) = 200 (1.05)^2

After 3 periods the amount is 200 (1.05)^3

And now you can deduce that after x periods y = 200 (1.05)^x

You can then analyze the function to predict the shape and critical points of the graph.

The answers are based in the initial value and the increasing factor.

The initial value is when x = 0, which yields to y = 200 (1.05)^0 = 200*1 = 200

And the increasing factor is 1.05 because any value is the previos one times 1.05.

Then the answer is the first option. The initial value is 200 and the graph increases by a factor of 1.05 per 1 unit increase in time.

Write an equation of the line that passes through 4,-2 and is parallel to y=-4x+1
Aneli [31]

Answer:

y=-4x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel line must always have the same slope, so it must be -4x, and on a graph y=-4x+14 passes through the point (4,-2)
