The EverGlow nuclear power plant releases water into Lake Fishbegone every afternoon at 4:51 p.m. Environmental researchers are

concerned that fish are being driven away from the area around the plant. They believe that the temperature of the water discharged may be a factor. The data table below gives the temperature of the water released by the plant and the measured distance (in meters) from the outflow pipe of the plant to the nearest fish found in the water on several randomly chosen afternoons. A scatterplot of the data and the least-squares regression line are given.
What is the slope of the least-squares regression line? *
A. -74.704
B. 5.791
C. 12.196
D. 0.946

Answer:

  • m∠ABC = 15°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • m∠ABC = x°
  • m∠BCD = 25°
  • m∠CDE = 55°
  • m∠DEF = 3x°

Add two more parallel lines passing through points C and D.

Consider alternate interior angles formed by the four parallel lines.

<u>The angles between the two middle lines are equal to:</u>

  • m∠BCD - m∠ABC  = m∠CDE - m∠DEF

<u>Substitute values and solve for x:</u>

  • 25 - x = 55 - 3x
  • 3x - x = 55 - 25
  • 2x = 30
  • x = 15

m∠ABC = 15°

17c-10=4 ............................
Katarina [22]

Answer:

1.214 or 1\frac{3}{14} or \frac{17}{14}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, first you need to the variable term isolated. You do this by adding 10 to each side. Your equation will now look like

17c = 14

Next, you will divide both sides by the 17.

Your equation now is solved, and above, I put ther three different forms for your answer: decimal, mixed number, and improper fraction.
