Answer:
66 °F
Step-by-step explanation:
At 4 P.M., the temperature had decreased by 3° from the temperature at 3 P.M., so was ...
4 P.M. temp = 78 °F -3° = 75 °F
This was repeated until 7 P.M.
5 P.M. temp = 75 °F -3° = 72 °F
6 P.M. temp = 72 °F -3° = 69 °F
7 P.M. temp = 69 °F -3° = 66 °F
The temperature at 7 P.M. was 66 °F.
__
Of course the repeated subtraction can be simplified using multiplication. The subtraction of 3° four times is equivalent to the subtraction of . . .
(3°)(4) = 12°
That is, the temperature at 7 P.M. is ...
78 °F -3°×4 = 78 °F -12° = 66 °F
ANSWER:
X is -5 and 1.
1) cross multiply
2) subtract five from both sides
3) factor
4) check for extraneous
5) ask me if you are still confused.
The statement which best describes the association between the variables X and Y is the <em>moderate positive association</em>. It is observable that the values of X and Y are increasing, however, not in a perfect manner as there are some minor deviations. But nonetheless, the direction is clear and the values are close to each other so they have a moderate positive association.
8.6*7=60.2, 16*1.4=22.4, 12*14=168, 7.3*20=146
