Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number and y be the another one.

x=4y-3

x-y=48

Substitute x=4y-3 into x-y=48

(4y-3)-y=48

3y=51

y=17

[Since we know x is larger than y (4y-3), we need to use y to calculate out x.]

Substitute y=17 into x=4y-3

x=68-3

x=65

What is bigger 1/5 or -4

kaheart [24]

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to think about this is on a number line. -4 would be on the left of 0 meaning it is less than 0 and $\frac{1}{5}$ is on the right side of 0 but it is less than 1.

35. Two variables, x and y, appear to be exponentially related. The regression equation for ln y on x is ln y = 1.7 + .45x. What

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

$y=7.57$

Step-by-step explanation:

Two variables, x and y, appear to be exponentially related. The regression equation for ln y on x is $ln y = 1.7 + .45x$

we need to predict the value of y when x=0.72

plug in the value of x in the given equation

$ln y = 1.7 + .45x$

$ln y = 1.7 + .45(0.72)$

$ln y = 1.7 + 0.324$

$ln y = 2.024$

$y=e^{2.024}$

$y=7.57$
