Every week he withdraws $35 from the $950 in his savings, and he wants at least $600 by the end of the summer. So we could write:

\sf 950-35x\ge 600

Where 'x' is the number of weeks. Now let's solve it for 'x'.

Subtract 950 to both sides:

\sf -35x\ge -350

Divide -35 to both sides, don't forget to switch the sign when dividing/multiplying by a negative number:

\sf x\le 10

So he can only withdraw at money for at most 10 weeks if he wants at least $600 left in his account.

Answer:

y = -2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's just put the three points together.

(-1, 5) (-4, 11) (-7, 17)

First, let's find the slope with y2 - y1/x2 - x1

Plug in using (-1, 5) and (-4, 11)

11 - 5/-4 + 1 = 6/-3 (simplify)

-2 is the slope

Now plug in (-7, 17) in the equation to get b or the y-intercept)

y = mx + b

17 = -2(-7) + b

17 = 14 + b (subtract 14 on both sides)

3 = b

y = -2x + 3

Many states assess the skills of their students in various grades. One program that is available for this purpose is the Nationa
Nataly [62]

Answer:

A score of 314 is needed to be in the top 25% of students who take this exam.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that one of the tests provided by the NAEP assesses the reading skills of twelfth-grade students. In recent years, the national mean score was 289 and the standard deviation was 37.

Let X = <u><em>scores of the tests provided by the NAEP</em></u>

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                           Z  =  \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = national mean score = 289

           \sigma = standard deviation = 37

Now, we have to find how high a score is needed to be in the top 25% of students who take this exam, that means;

            P(X > x) = 0.25     {where x is the required score}

            P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} > \frac{x-289}{37} ) = 0.25

            P(Z > \frac{x-289}{37} ) = 0.25

In the z table, the critial value of z that represents the top 25% of the area is given as 0.6745, that is;

                        \frac{x-289}{37}=0.6745

                        {x-289}=0.6745\times 37

                        x = 289 + 24.96 = 313.96 ≈ 314

Hence, a score of 314 is needed to be in the top 25% of students who take this exam.

Answer:

y = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y is directly proportional to x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition when x = 4, y = 8, that is

8 = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )

2 = k, thus

y = 2x ← equation of proportion
