For a class project, students collect data about the ages of the male students (a) and their heights in inches (h). There was a

positive linear relationship between a and h that is best modeled by the equation h=1.6a+41 .
What statement is true?

The students collected data from 41 students.

The model predicts that for each year older a male student is, he is about 1.6 inches taller.

The model predicts that for 41 surveyed male students, the average student grew about 1.6 inches in the last year.

The average height of the surveyed students was 41 inches.

Since the equation, <span>h=1.6a+41, is linear, we know that the coefficient of x, or in this case a, is the slope. Therefore the correct answer would be

Answer:

Option b is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that for a class project, students collect data about the ages of the male students (a) and their heights in inches (h). There was a positive linear relationship between a and h that is best modeled by the equation h=1.6a+41.

Suppose a becomes a+1 i.e. a is increased by 1 unit

h(a+1) = 1.6(a+1)+41

Increase in a when a increases by 1

=h(a+1)-h(a) = 1.6(a+1)+41-1.61-41\\=1.6

Hence we find that

The model predicts that for each year older a male student is, he is about 1.6 inches taller.

Option b is right answer

Jenna saves $3 for every $13 dollars she earns. Vanessa saves $6 for every $16 she earns. Is Jenna's ratio of money saved to mon
jeka94

We have been given that Jenna saves $3 for every $13 dollars she earns. Vanessa saves $6 for every $16 she earns.

We can compare the ratios of saved money to earned money by Jenna and Vanessa as:

\frac{3}{13} =\frac{6}{16}    

Let us simplify our equation.

0.2307692307692308=0.375    

We can see that 0.231\neq 0.375 , therefore, Jenna's ratio of money saved to money earned is not equivalent to Vanessa's ratio of money saved to money earned.

There are 12 blue marbles and 8 red marbles. find the probability of selecting one item
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

selecting one item? If you mean each color:

40% chance for a red marble / 2/5 chance

60% chance for a blue marble / 3/5 chance

Step-by-step explanation:

Because there are 12 blue marbles and 8 red marbles, we would total them to see how many marbles there are in total. There are 20 in total, but to find the probability, if we put all 20 marbles in a bag (blue and red), and we picked a marble at random, there are 8 red marbles and 12 blue marble in that bag. The probability that I will choose red marbles is 8/20 (or 8 red marbles out of 20 total marbles), and for blue marbles, it would be 12/20 (or 12 blue marbles out of 20 total marbles). Simplify both expression to 2/5, and 3/5 respectively. Finally, if you need percentage, just multiply the denominator by 5 to get it to a hundred, and do the same to the numerator. This way you don't change the value of the expression.
