Call b the amount of babysitting hours and 5 the amount of gardening hours.

10b+5g=80
b+g=12

Subtract 5 times the second equation from the first to get:

5b=20
Thus, b=4.  g=12-4, or 8.  Therefore, Sarah spends 4 hours babysitting and the rest gardening.

The data show the average monthly temperatures for two cities over a 6-month period. City 1: {20, 24, 40, 63, 76, 89} City 2: {4
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The MAD of city 2 is <u>less than</u> the MAD for city 1, which means the average monthly temperature of city 2 vary <u>less than</u> the average monthly temperatures for City 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

For comparing the mean absolute deviations of both data sets we have to calculate the mean absolute deviation for both data sets first,

So for city 1:

Mean = x1 = \frac{20+24+40+63+76+89}{6}

x1 = \frac{312}{6}

x1 = 52

Now to calculate the mean deviations mean will be subtracted from each data value. (Note: The minus sign is ignored as the deviation is the distance of value from the mean and it cannot be negative. For this purpose absolute is used)

20-52 = -32=32\\24-52=-28=28\\40-52=-12=12\\63-52=11\\76-52=24\\89-52=37

The deviations will be added then.Mean Absolute Deviation = \frac{32+28+12+11+24+37}{6} \\=\frac{144}{6}\\=24

So the mean absolute deviation for city 1 is 24 ..

For city 2:

Mean = x2 = \frac{41+50+58+62+72+83}{6}

x2 = \frac{366}{6}

x2 = 61

Now to calculate the mean deviations mean will be subtracted from each data value. (Note: The minus sign is ignored)

41-61=-20=20\\50-61=-11=11\\58-61=-3=3\\62-61=1\\72-61=11\\83-61=22

The deviations will be added then.Mean Absolute Deviation = \frac{20+11+3+1+11+22}{6} \\=\frac{68}{6}\\=11.33

So the MAD for city 2 is 11.33 ..

So,

The MAD of city 2 is <u>less than</u> the MAD for city 1, which means the average monthly temperature of city 2 vary <u>less than</u> the average monthly temperatures for City 1.

On a vacation, DeVante and his family traveled 382 miles at 64 mph. How long did the trip take? (Round to the nearest hundredth)
Ilya [14]
Okay. I'm sure you are familiar with the DST triangle, yes? It will help you solve this problem. Distance/speed = time. 382/64 = 5.96875. Round to the nearest hundredth to get 5.97 hours.

Consider the line y=9x-8
jasenka [17]

Answer:

y=9x+75

Step-by-step explanation:

since we know that the slope must be the same for two lines to be proportional, we are gonna start there.

so our equation is: y= 9x + b

we need to find b to complete our equation, so substitute in the points we were given.

3 = 9(-8) + b

so now,

3 = -72 + b

now we have to isolate b to find out what it is,

3  =  -72 + b

+72   +72

so now: 75= b

Put that back into the starting equation: y = 9x + 75
