Marty is taking piano lessons. She is going to practice every afternoon. The 1st week she practiced for 11 minutes each day. The

third week she practiced for 25 minutes each day. This is a linear relationship. Write an equation to represent that represents the number of minutes practiced daily, m, in relationship to the number of week, w.

Answer:

m=7w+4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear Modeling</u>

It consist is setting up a linear relationship between two variables, given some experimental data. Only 2 points are needed to set up the equation of a line, but if more than 2 points are used, then the result should use statistical approaches like linear regression to find the best-fit line.

For the question at hand, Marty practices his piano lessons 11 minutes the week #1. It provides the first point (1,11). He practices 25 minutes per day on the third week. It gives us another point (3,25). This is enough to find the equation of a line. The general formula for a line, having two points (m1,w1) (m2,w2) is

\displaystyle m-m_1=\frac{m_2-m_1}{w_2-w_1}(w-w_1)

Let's plug in our values

\displaystyle m-11=\frac{25-11}{3-1}(w-1)

Simplifying:

m-11=7w-7

\boxed{m=7w+4}

Which value below is included in the solution set for the inequality statement?
mixas84 [53]

You haven't provided any value, but I can tell you the solution set for the inequality.

First of all, expand both sides:

-3x+12 > 6x-6

Add 3x to both sides:

12 > 9x-6

Add 6 to both sides:

18 > 9x

Which is of course equivalent to

9x < 18

Divide both sides by 9

x < 2

So, every number smaller than 2 is part of the solution of this inequality.

PLEASE HELP ME: the ratio of cars to trucks on a highway at any given time is 12 to 8. If there are always more than 105 cars on
andre [41]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up the ratio of c:t, which is 12:8. Then set up your new ratio of c:t, which is 105:?. The way I find the easiest is to divide 105 by 12, which is 8.75, then multiply that by 8, which is 70. To check if it's right, just divide 12 by 8, and 105 by 70, and if they're the same number, you've got it right.

Ps. I'm guessing you meant to ask the minimum number of trucks, not cars.
