Answer:

Frog 1 - 8 feet 3 inches =

8 feet x (1 yard/3 feet) = 2.667 Yards

3 inches x (1 foot /12 inches) x ( 1 yard / 3 feet) = 0.83 yards

So Frog 1 = 2.75 Yard

Frog 2 - 2 yards 36 inches

36 inches x (1 foot /12 inches) x (1 yard / 3 feet) = 1 Yard

So Frog 2 = 3 yards

Frog 2 won

It won by 3 - 2.75 = 0.25 Yards

0.25 yards x (3 feet / 1 yard) = 0.75 feet

0.75 feet x (12 inches /1 foot) = 9 inches

<u>So Frog 2 won by 9 inches</u>

In 2073 BS father's age was 7 times his daughter devyani's age. In 2081 BS father's age will be 3 times only his daughter's age.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

2069.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Devyani's age in 2073= x years and y be her fathers age  Then:

y = 7x

- and in 8 years time ( 2081) we have:

y + 8 = 3(x + 8)

y = 3x + 24 - 8

y = 3x  + 16.     Eliminating y from the 2 equations:

7x = 3x + 16

4x = 16

x = 4.

So in 2073 she was 4 years old

Therefore she was born in 2069.

Andrew uses the equation 25(x-4)=30 x, where x represents the number of sales, to determine the number of items he needs to sell
pshichka [43]

Hello,

Start off by distributing 25 to both x and -4

25 * X = 25x & 25 * -4 = -100

25x - 100 = 30

At this point, we add 100 to both sides so we can get 25 to be seperate from 100.

25x = 130

To get rid of the 25, divide it in both sides:

130/25 = 5.2

The answer would be 5.2

I hope this helps you with your assignment!

PLZ HELP MEEEE 40 POINTS!
ASHA 777 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Jeanie stated that the equation of this line best fit for the scatter plot is y=\frac{1}{2}x+8.

Let us find the slope of the line of best fit using points (2,7) and (4,6) in slope formula.

\text{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\text{Slope of line of best fit}=\frac{6-7}{4-2}

\text{Slope of line of best fit}=\frac{-1}{2}

We can see that slope of line of best fit is -\frac{1}{2}.

Since the equation of a line written in slope-intercept is in form: y=mx+b, where m=slope of line, b= y-intercept.  

Upon substituting m=-\frac{1}{2} and coordinates of one point in slope-intercept form of equation we will  get,

6=-\frac{1}{2}\times 4+b

6=-2+b

6+2=-2+2+b

8=b

Upon substituting m=-\frac{1}{2} and b=8 in slope intercept form, we will get,

y=-\frac{1}{2}x+8

We can see that equation of the line of best fit is y=-\frac{1}{2}x+8. Jeanie got 1/2 as slope of the line of best fit, which is wrong, therefore, Jeanie's equation of the line of best fit is not correct.
