Which set of coordinates satisfies the system of equations y = x − 3 and y = -2x + 1?

Sameera predicted that she would sell 38 blankets, but she actually sold 28 blankets. Which expression would find the percent er

antoniya [11.8K]

Solution: We are given:

Predicted Sales by Sameera $=38$

Actual Sales by Sameera $=28$

Now to find the Percent error, we have to use the below formula:

$Percent-Error= \frac{|Predicted-value - Actual-value|}{Actual-value} \times 100 \%$

$=\frac{|38-28|}{28} \times 100 \%$

$=\frac{10}{28}\times 100 \%$

$=35.71 \%$

Therefore, the percent error is $35.71 \%$

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

1. Use a compass to make arc marks which intersect above and below then connect.

2. $y=\frac{1}{3}x + 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To construct a perpendicular line, use a compass to draw arc marks from one end of the segment through point P. Then repeat this again at the other end. This means at point P there will be two intersecting arc marks. Repeat the process down below with the same radius as used above. Then connect the two intersections.

2. The point slope form of a line is $(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)$ where $x_1=-3\\y_1=1$ . We write

$(y-1)=m(x--3)\\(y-1)=m(x+3)$

Since the line is to be perpendicular to the line shown it will have the negative reciprocal to the slope of the function 3x+y =-8. To find m, rearrange the function to be y=-8-3x. The slope is -3 and the negative reciprocal will be 1/3.

$(y-1)=\frac{1}{3}(x+3)$

Simplify for slope intercept form.

$(y-1)=\frac{1}{3}(x+3)\\(y-1)=\frac{1}{3}x+1\\y=\frac{1}{3}x + 2$

Kevin made a jewelry box with the dimensions shown width: 15 cm length: 10 cm depth: 5 cm. what is the volume of the jewelry box

ziro4ka [17]

you need to know the mass of the jewelry box before you can know the volume but i can help you multiply th 15 and the 10 to get the mass most likely then divided what you have from 15 x 10 by the depth and you have your answer just be sure to round it off!

A marine biologist monitors the population of sunfish in a small lake. He records 800 sunfish in his first year, 600 sunfish in

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Let's use the variable y to represent the number of years passed since the first year.

The population on the first year (y = 0) was 800

The population in the second year (y = 1) was 600.

The ratio in which the population decreased can be calculated as:

R = 600/800 = 0.75

This means that 600 is the 75% of 800, this also means that between the first year and the second year, the population decreased by the 25%

Now let's look at the ratio between the second and third year (y = 2), the population the third year was 450

Now the ratio is:

R = 450/600 = 0.75

Same as before, then we already can see that the population will decrease by 25% each year.

The generic exponential decay equation is:

f(y) = A*(1 - r)^y

where:

A = initial population, in this case, is 800

y = our variable, in this case, represents the number of years

r = the amount that decreases per each unit of our variable, this must be written in decimal form. In this case, we know that the population decreases by 25% each year, and 25% written in decimal form is 0.25

Also, (1 - r) = R, where R is the ratio we found earlier.

To do this, we just divide 25% by 100% to get (25%/100% = 0.25)

Then our equation will be:

f(y) = 800*(1 - 0.25)^y

f(y) = 800*( 0.75)^y

1) We want to predict when the population will be 200.

to do this, we set:

f(y) = 200 = 800*( 0.75)^y

and solve it for y.

(200/800) = 0.75^y

(1/4) = 0.75^y

Now we can use the relationship:

Ln(a^x) = x*ln(a)

Then let's apply Ln( ) in both sides to get

ln(1/4) = y*ln(0.75)

ln(1/4)/ln(0.75) = y = 4.8 years.

This means that 4.8 years after the first year, the population will be around 200.

2) The population in the 25 th year (this is 24 years after the first one, so we take y = 24) is:

f(24) = 800*(0.75)^(24) = 0.80

Around this point, we will have no more sunfish in the lake.
