Answer:

Cody was 148.5cm on the first day of school last year.

Step-by-step explanation:

10% = 0.1

165 x 0.1 = 16.5

165 - 16.5 = 148.5

For this case we have that Cody average 165cm in height and that represented 10% higher than last year.

Then, making a rule of three we have:

165cm ----------> 100%

x --------------------> 10%

Where "x" represents the cm that equals 10%

x = \frac {10 * 165} {100}\\x = 16.5cm

To know the height of Cody last year, we subtract:

165cm-16.5cm = 148.5cm

So, Cody had 148.5 cm on the first day of school last year.

Answer:

148.5cm

ludmilkaskok [199]
68% fall within +/- 1 SD, so men above that 1 SD (165) are: (100-68)/2
32/2 = 16% above 165 and also 16% below 135

Write an equation in point-slope for, for the line through the given spot (4, -6); m = 3/5
oee [108]

The point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

We have the point (4, -6) and the slope m = 3/5. Substitute:

y-(-6)=\dfrac{3}{5}(x-4)\\\\\boxed{y+6=\dfrac{3}{5}(x-4)}

Which table has a constant of proportionality between y and x of 12?
Nikolay [14]

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

To find if they have a constant of proportionality of 12, use the following:

\frac{y}{x}=12

Divide y by the x value (x,y), and if the remaining equation is true, then that table has a constant of proportionality of 12.*

:Done

*Make sure you check all the values in a table. Sometimes only the first values will have k=12, while the others don't.

**The constant of proportionality is represented by <em>k</em>.
