I don't see a b or an m in this function, but generally, a linear function is of the form ax+b. The b in this equation (not sure if it is the same as your b), controls the shift of the function. Lower b by 3, the graph shifts down by 3.
So unless there is a minus sign before b, it has to be lowered by 3. (If there is a minus sign, it has to be increased by 3).
Mukat gets 40, Usha gets 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Mukat = 5 × Usha
After Mukat gives Usha 16 books ,Usha gets (16 + initial number of books) and Mukat gets (5 × Usha - 16)
Then Mukat = final number of books for Usha
5 × Usha - 16 = Usha + 16
(5 × Usha ) - Usha = 16+16
4 × Usha = 32
Usha = 8 i.e her number of books.
Mukat = 5×8=40.
I HOPE IT'S OK
The data set has no association.
Answer:
<u>1.56 is greater than 1.29</u>. (Check after the decimal point, 5 is greater than 2, so 1.56 is greater than 1.29)
Answer:
(A)6 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we determine the value of a using Pythagoras Theorem.

Therefore:
Distance along the long route = 8 + 15 =23 km
Distance along the shortcut =17 km
Difference =23-17 =6km
Therefore, Mr. Jones bikes 6km less when he takes the shortcut instead of the long route.
