5x+4=7x+2=4+-2x=2. 4+-2x=2=-2x=2. Therefore, x=1

5x + 4 = 7x + 2

Subtract 5x from both sides.
4 = 2x + 2

Subtract 2 from both sides.
2 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2.
1 = x

A manager wishes to determine the relationship between the number of miles (in hundreds of miles) the manager's sales representa

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

$y=3.529 x +37.91$

We can predict the sales representative travelled 8 miles replacing x =8 and we got:

$y(8) = 3.529*8 + 37.91= 66.142$

And we can predict the sales representative travelled 11 miles replacing x =11 and we got:

$y(11) = 3.529*11 + 37.91= 76.729$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following data:

Miles Traveled x: 2,3,10,7,8,15,3,1,11

Sales y :31,33,78,62,65,61,48,55,120

For this case we need to calculate the slope with the following formula:

$m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}$

Where:

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}$

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}$

So we can find the sums like this:

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i =60$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y_i =553$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i =582$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i =39653$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i =4329$

With these we can find the sums:

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=582-\frac{60^2}{9}=182$

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}=4329-\frac{60*553}{9}=642.33$

And the slope would be:

$m=\frac{642.33}{182}=3.529$

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

$\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{60}{9}=6.67$

$\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{553}{9}=61.44$

And we can find the intercept using this:

$b=\bar y -m \bar x=61.44-(3.529*6.67)=37.91$

So the line would be given by:

$y=3.529 x +37.91$

We can predict the sales representative travelled 8 miles replacing x =8 and we got:

$y(8) = 3.529*8 + 37.91= 66.142$

And we can predict the sales representative travelled 11 miles replacing x =11 and we got:

$y(11) = 3.529*11 + 37.91= 76.729$

The length of a rectangle is 3 m longer then it’s width the area of the rectangle is 154 m^2 what is the width of the rectangle

Alenkasestr [34]

The width is 11.

You can get this by setting up an equation that says:

x (x - 3) = 154

Then distribute and use the quadratic equation to solve.

Do the rays BA and AB define the same ray? In complete sentences, explain why the two rays are the same or why the two rays are

Deffense [45]

Rays are named according to their endpoints, the first one named is the "starting" endpoint, the second one is the one that will continue on into infinity. Therefore, ray BA has a terminal endpoint at B and goes through point A into infinity. Ray AB has a terminal endpoint at A and goes through point B into infinity. Definitely NOT the same ray.
