Answer:

5.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

<BAD = <CAE, therefore, BD = EC

Let's take x to be the length of BD = EC

BD + DE + EC = BC

BC = 20,

BD = EC = x

DE ≈ 9.28

Thus,

x + 9.28 + x = 20

x + x + 9.28 = 20

2x + 9.28 = 20

Subtract 9.28 from both sides

2x + 9.28 - 9.28 = 20 - 9.28

2x = 10.72

Divided both sides by 2 to solve for x

$\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{10.72}{2}$

$x = \frac{10.72}{2}$

$x = 5.36$

BD ≈ 5.36

13. Pick a point and see which formula works.
Ay = -4, A'y = 7. Only the formula of selection D makes that translation.

14. Use the compound interest formula A = P*(1 +r/n)^(nt).
..1500*1.015^80 = 4935.99, matching selection C

15. The lid has a perimeter of 90", so the area of the sides is
.. 90" * 24" = 2160 in^2
The area of the lid is
.. 30" * 15" = 450 in^2

The gray area is (2160 -450) in^2 = 1710 in^2 larger, corresponding to selection C.

16. The only formula that maps (7, -1) to (21, -3) is that of selection D.

Marty is taking piano lessons. She is going to practice every afternoon. The 1st week she practiced for 11 minutes each day. The

Answer:

$m=7w+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear Modeling</u>

It consist is setting up a linear relationship between two variables, given some experimental data. Only 2 points are needed to set up the equation of a line, but if more than 2 points are used, then the result should use statistical approaches like linear regression to find the best-fit line.

For the question at hand, Marty practices his piano lessons 11 minutes the week #1. It provides the first point (1,11). He practices 25 minutes per day on the third week. It gives us another point (3,25). This is enough to find the equation of a line. The general formula for a line, having two points (m1,w1) (m2,w2) is

$\displaystyle m-m_1=\frac{m_2-m_1}{w_2-w_1}(w-w_1)$

Let's plug in our values

$\displaystyle m-11=\frac{25-11}{3-1}(w-1)$

Simplifying:

$m-11=7w-7$

$\boxed{m=7w+4}$
