Answer:
a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.
The answer to that question would be 14
Answer:
x<10
Step-by-step explanation:
Add '-7' to each side of the equation.
7 + -7 + -0.3x = 4 + -7
Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0
0 + -0.3x = 4 + -7
-0.3x = 4 + -7
Combine like terms: 4 + -7 = -3
-0.3x = -3
Divide each side by '-0.3'.
x = 10
Simplifying
x = 10
6 is only the double of 3
3×2=6
Any number that's multiplied by 6 will be the double of any number multiplied by 3, or vice versa, any number multiplied by 3 will be half of any number multiplied by 6. This is because 6 is a multiple of 3.
Take for example:
850×6=5100 ⇔ 850×(3×2)=5100
