Answer:

<u>The vertical axis will start from 0 inches.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • As data provides information that
  • 28% plant are under 6 inches.
  • 54% are between six and 8 inches.
  • 18% are above 8 inches.
  • So the least height is not mentioned only it is mentioned that below the 6 inches which means from 0 inches to six inches.
  • And in making bar graph vertical axis should start from least value.
  • Hence here possible least value is 0 inches.

<u>Answer:</u>

The vertical axis should begin with 0 inches.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The vertical axis must start with 0 inches to ensure accuracy for the measures of every plant since 28% of the plants in the garden are under 6 inches.

If the vertical axis begins with 6 inches or above, we can miss a lot of the gardener's data, especially the plants which are under 6 inches.

Therefore, to ensure that the graph does not mislead any measures of the plant, the vertical axis must begin with 0 inches.

What is the value of x
kozerog [31]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

If the upper triangle has a right angle at Island C, we need only use the Pythagorean Theorem to find x:

(10 mi)^2 + (20 mi)^2 = x^2, so that

x^2 = 100 mi^2 + 400 mi^2 = 500 mi^2, which reduces to

x = +10√5 mi

Note that the shortest side (10 mi) is adjacent to a 30 degree angle.  Thus, the upper triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle, meaning that the Pythagorean Theorem DOES apply here.

Next time, please incude ALL of the verbal instructions.  Thank you.

The solution is the point of intersection between the two equations.

Assuming you have a graphing calculator or a program to lets you graph equations (I use desmos) you simply put in the equetions and note down the coordinates of the point of intersection.

In the graph the first equation is in blue and the second in red.

The point of intersection = the solution = (-6 , -1)



If you dont have access to a graphing calculator you could draw the graphs by hand;

1) Draw a table of values for each equation; you do this by setting three or four values for x and calculating its image in y (you can use any values of x)

y = 0.5 x + 2 (Im writing 0.5 instead of 1/2 because I find its easier in this format)

x | y
-1 | 1.5 * y = 0.5 (-1) + 2 = 1.5
0 | 2 * y = 0.5 (0) + 2 = 2
1 | 2.5 * y = 0.5 (1) + 2 = 2.5
2 | 3 * y = 0.5 (2) + 2 = 3

y = x + 5

x | y
-1 | 4 * y = (-1) + 5 = 4
0 | 5 * y = (0) + 5 = 5
1 | 6 * y = (1) + 5 = 6
2 | 7 * y = (2) + 5 = 7

2) Plot these point on the graph
I suggest to use diffrent colored points or diffrent kinds of point markers (an x or a dot) to avoid confusion about which point belongs to which graph

3) Using a ruler draw a line connection all the dots of one graph and do the same for the other

4) The point of intersection is the solution
