Answer: 2 inches, 3 inches, or 3.125 and 2.083
Explanations:
The simplest way is to take 20% of the 2.5 inches and go that much above & below 2.5 inches.
2.5 x 20% = 2.5 x 0.20 = 0.5
So 2.5 - 0.5 = 2 inches was predicted
And 2.5 + 0.5 = 3 inches was predicted.
The more complicated way is to see number + 20% of that number = 2.5, and what number - 20% = 2.5.
Which solution sounds more like what you’re doing in class right now?
If it’s the more complicated way:
0.8x = 2.5 (80% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 3.125 inches was predicted
1.2x = 2.5 (120% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 2.083 inches was predicted
Sorry, this is probably confusing. Let me know what questions you have.
The slope is negative, so the slope is negative. Using the rise over run formula, the slope of the line should be -1.
Answer:
f(4) = 85 1/3 or 85.333...
Step-by-step explanation:
To find f(4), you must substitute 4 in place of x whenever x appears:
f(x) =
*
f(4) =
* 
Next, simplify the exponent:
f(4) =
* 256
Finally, multiply:
f(4) = 85 1/3 or 85.333...
