If each pack of trail mixes is targeted to weigh 9.25 oz and must be within 0.23 oz of the target in order to be accepted, then rejected masses x, are those which weighs less than 9.02 oz or greater than 9.48 oz.

Answer: The range of the rejected masses is,

|x-9.25| > 0.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the weight of the pack = 9.25 oz

Also, the maximum changes in the weight = 0.23 oz

Thus, The maximum weight of the pack = 9.25 + 0.23

And, the minimum weight of the pack = 9.25 - 0.23

Thus, the if the weight is more than 9.25 + 0.23 or less than 9.25 - 0.23, then it will be rejected.

If x represents the rejected mass,

Then, 9.25 - 0.23 > x or  9.25 + 0.23 < x

⇒ -0.23 > x - 9.25  or 0.23 < x - 9.25

⇒ 0.23 < -(x-9.25) or 0.23 < x-9.25   ( Since, a > b ⇒ -a < - b )

⇒ 0.23 < | x - 9.25 |

Which is the required range of the rejected mass.

Write the equation y=4x+9 in standard form using integers.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

4x-y=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an equation is when both variables, x & y, are on the same side of the equation with a number on the other side.

To transform this equation from slope-intercept form to standard form, just switch sides for the y and the 9 like follows.

4x-y=-9

I hope this helped you :D
