My answer would be, so you can know how much you will end of paying for something that is lets say $125. You could end up paying $250 for that and you wouldn't even know.

Hope this helps!!!

So, they are looking for the percentage that is NOT explained... Well, given the r we can find the percentage that IS explained by it first. That's given by r^2.

Now - let's take the square of r it gives me .481636. That means that about 48% IS explained. Therefore, the part that cannot be explained must be the missing part (out of 100% so 100% - 48.1636% should be it :)

So 100% - 48.1636% = 0.518364 and we want to round that off to three decimal places which will give us 0.518... and then we could convert that to a percent for the final. So 0.518 as a percentage is 51.8%! s

A given line has the equation 10x+2y=-2.

Iteru [2.4K]

The equation of a line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.

We have the following line:

$10x + 2y = -2\\2y = -10x-2\\y = -5x-1$

Thus, the slope of the line is -5.

Therefore a parallel line is of the form:

$y = -5x + b$

We replace the point $(0,12)$

$12 = -5 (0) + b\\12 = b$

Finally, the equation is of the form:

$y = -5x + 12$

Answer:

$5x + y = 12$

Erik and Caleb were trying to solve the equation: 0=(3x+2)(x-4) Erik said, "The right-hand side is factored, so I'll use the zer

Mumz [18]

Answer:

C) Both

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

$0=(3x+2)(x-4)$

To solve the given equation, we can use the Zero Product Property according to which if the product A.B = 0, then either A = 0 OR B = 0.

Using this property:

$(3x+2) = 0 \Rightarrow \bold{x = -\frac{2}{3}}\\(x-4) = 0 \Rightarrow \bold{x = 4}$

So, Erik's solution strategy would work.

Now, let us discuss about Caleb's solution strategy:

Multiply $(3x+2)(x-4)$ i.e. $3x^2-12x+2x-8$ = $3x^2-10x-8$

So, the equation becomes:

$0=3x^2-10x-8$

Comparing this equation to standard quadratic equation:

$ax^2+bx+c=0$

a = 3, b = -10, c = -8

So, this can be solved using the quadratic formula.

$x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\dfrac{-(-10)\pm\sqrt{(-10)^2-4\times3 \times (-8)}}{2\times 3}\\x=\dfrac{-(-10)\pm\sqrt{196}}{6}\\x=\dfrac{10\pm14}{6} \\\Rightarrow x= 4, -\dfrac{2}{3}$

The answer is same from both the approaches.

So, the correct answer is:

C) Both

Ok so A is the same as the square root of 4b+c but all of the numbers and the answer have to be prime numbers
