the difference between a full jug and a jug that is half full will give us the weight of the marbles only in a half full jug:
4 - 2.6 = 1.4 kg

In a half full jug that weighs 2.6 kg, the weight of the marbles is 1.4 kg 
the weight of the jug = 2.6 - 1.4 = 1.2 kg

Answer:

The jug weights empty 1.2 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we can define two equations based on the description to find the weight of the empty jug, this is:

Eq. 1: Jug+\frac{1}{2} Marbles=2.6

Eq. 2: Jug+Marbles=4

Now putting the Eq. 2 in the Eq. 1 we have:

Jug+\frac{1}{2} (4-Jug)=2.6

Clearing Jug:

\frac{1}{2}Jug=2.6-2

Jug=0.6*2

Jug=1.2

The jug weights empty 1.2 kg.

Answer:

The answer is A Have some volunteers drink nothing at all

Step-by-step explanation:

A control group is a group of people who don't have the variable they are the base and what we compare everything to so we would see if their mouth was spicy after eating it and not drinking anything then we would know that if someone drinks milk and their mouth is not spicy then it worked but if we don't have the control group then how do we know that just not drinking milk wouldn't have worked

I need help on the 2 questions please. and thank you i will pick brainliest if you are correct
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for slope-intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Solving for y will change the original equation into slope-intercept form:

x-2y=9\\-2y=9-x\\y=-\frac{9}{2}+\frac{1}{2}x

We can do the same thing for the second equation:

2x-3y=15\\-3y=15-2x\\y=-5+\frac{2}{3}x
