Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rainfall when you add all 10 years of rainfall up and divide by 10 is an average of 59.946 inches of rain each year. The equation for the data is y = -0.53x + 64.45, this means that the rainfall is getting less each year at a -0.53 inches of rain each year.

x = year (2004 would be 4, etc)

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

22.75 hours per week

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see from the question that the target amount of money is $190.00 per week.

If Lauren Rodriguez earns $8.35 in one hour

then $190.00 will be earned in x hours

8.35x = 190.00

x = 190.00/8.35

x = 22.75 hours per week

Kelsey solved the following equation:
Tems11 [23]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a) 1. Distributive property 2. Combine like terms 3. Addition property of equality 4. Division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacement of -1/2(8x +2) by -4x -1 is use of the <em>distributive property</em>, eliminating choices B and D.

In step 3, addition of 1 to both sides of the equation is use of the <em>addition property of equality</em>, eliminating choice C. This leaves only choice A.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

This problem makes a distinction between the addition property of equality and the subtraction property of equality. They are essentially the same property, since addition of +1 is the same as subtraction of -1. The result shown in Step 3 could be from addition of +1 to both sides of the equation, or it could be from subtraction of -1 from both sides of the equation.

In general, you want to add the opposite of the number you don't want. Here, that number is -1, so we add +1. Of course, adding an opposite is the same as subtracting.

In short, you can argue both choices A and C have correct justifications. The only reason to prefer choice A is that we usually think of adding positive numbers as <em>addition</em>, and adding negative numbers as <em>subtraction</em>.
