To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have the following informatioon given in the problem above:

 - <span>Five times the smaller of two consecutive numbers is added to 3 times the bigger.
 - The result is 579. 

 2. Keeping this on mind, you have the following equation:

 x: the smaller number.

 5x+3(x+1)=579

 3. You must solve for x to calcualte the value of the smaller integer:

 5x+3x+3=579
 8x+3=579
 8x=579-3
 x=576/8
 x=72

 The answer is: 72

A company performs linear regressions to compare data sets of two similar products. If the residuals for brand A form an increas
Radda [10]
I think the correct answer would be B. If the residuals for brand A form an increasing curve, and the residuals for brand B form a U-shaped pattern, then neither of the data is likely to be linear. In order to be linear, the residuals of both data set should be, more or less, linear or approaching linearity in nature. Therefore, the linear regression that was done would not give good results since it is only applicable to linear data sets. Also, you can say that the relation of the data sets of the products are not linear. It would be best to do a curve fitting for both sets by using different functions like parabolic functions.

Use properties to rewrite the given equation. Which equations have the same solution as 2.3p – 10.1 = 6.5p – 4 – 0.01p? Select t
hichkok12 [17]

The equation that has the same solution as  2.3p – 10.1 = 6.5p – 4 – 0.01p are as follows;

  • 2.3p – 10.1 = 6.49p – 4
  • 230p - 1010 = 649p - 400

<h3>How to rewrite an equation? </h3>

2.3p – 10.1 = 6.5p – 4 – 0.01p

The equation that has the same solution as above can be found as follows;

2.3p – 10.1 = 6.5p – 4 – 0.01p

combine like terms

2.3p – 10.1 = 6.5p – 0.01p - 4

2.3p – 10.1 = 6.49p – 4

Multiply through by 100.

Therefore,

230p - 1010 = 649p - 400
