Answer:

y = − (7 /2) x + 60 equation could represent the line of best fit for the temperatures, in degrees Fahrenheit, based on the altitudes, in thousands of feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A plot for temperature and altitude

(Refer the attachment)  .......FOR GRAPH

To Find:

Correct relationship between them

Solution:

By using  given relationship as we can conclude.

1)y=-5x+70:

Put y=0 then

5x=70

x=70/5

x=14

This value dont corresponds when y=0 in graph

2) y=-10x+70

put y=0 then

10x=70

x=7

This value dont corresponds when y=0 in graph very less than original value.

3)y=-(7/2)x+60

put y=0 then

(7/2)x=60

7x=120

x=120/7

x=17.14

This value  corresponds when y=0 in graph

4)y=-(9/2)x+60

Put y=0 then

(9/2)x=60

9x=120

x=120/9

x=13.33

This value dont corresponds when y=0 in graph which much less than original value.

Answer:

  49.3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Shadow lengths and object heights are considered to be proportional, so we have ...

  tree height/(tree shadow) = Andrew's height/(Andrew's shadow)

  height / (85 ft) = (5.8 ft)/(10 ft)

  height = (85 ft)(5.8/10) = 49.3 ft

The tree is 49.3 feet tall.

Consider the quadratic equation x? = 4x - 5. How many solutions does the equation have? A The equation has one real solution. Th
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

{-1, 5} (two real solutions).

Step-by-step explanation:

On the left side we want x^2, not x?

We need to rewrite x? = 4x - 5 in standard form, that is, as a quadratic with x terms in decreasing powers of x:

x^2 - 4x + 5 = 0

This factors easily to (x - 5)(x + 1) = 0.

We let each factor equal zero (0) separately and solve for x:  

{-1, 5} (two real solutions).

Given statement is False, if a light cost $3, it could be either Green or Yellow.

Converse: If the light bulb was Yellow, then the cost was $3 = True

Contrapositive makes both statements negative and switches the order of the original statement.

So something like:  If the light bulb is not yellow, then the cost would not be $3 = False because two colors cost the $3.

Inverse makes both statements negative but keeps the same order.

Something like : If the light bulb did not cost$3 then the light bulb was not yellow = False because two colors cost the $3.

A point, beginning at (0,0), undergoes the following composition of translation. Write an ordered pair for the points final posi
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

(-1,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting at (0,0), we perform the first translation:

T<5,-7> implies that we move the point 5 units to the right (in the x (horizontal) direction), and 7 units DOWN in the y <vertical) direction.

From there we do the second translation: T<-6,2>

which means: 6 units to the left (in the horizontal direction) which takes us to  "-1" for the x value, and 2 units up (vertical) which takes us to -5 for the y value.

Therefore the new location is (-1,-5)
