Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2(bx - 5) = 16 ← substitute b = 3

- 2(3x - 5) = 16 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

3x - 5 = - 8 ( add 5 to both sides )

3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = - 1

Give an example of each of the following types of data: qualitative, quantitative, discrete, and continuous. ​
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Continuous: Height, weight, annual income.

Discrete: Number of children, number of students in a class.

Continuous data (like height) can (in theory) be measured to any degree of accuracy. If you consider a value line, the values can be anywhere on the line. For statistical purposes this kind of data is often gathered in classes (example height in 5 cm classes).

Discrete data (like number of children) are parcelled out one by one. On the value line they occupy only certain points. Sometimes discrete values are grouped into classes, but less often.

In stage 2 of a rocket's takeoff, the speed of the rocket increases at a rate of 4.3% per minute. The speed of the rocket at the
Sveta_85 [38]

The correct option is:   B.  25000=5000(1.043)^t

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

<u>The general form of growth equation</u> is:   A=P(1+r)^t , where A = final amount, P = initial amount, r = growth rate in decimal form and t = time duration

Here, the speed of the rocket at the beginning was 5,000 kilometers per hour and at the end will be 25,000 kilometers per hour. The speed increases at a rate of 4.3% per minute.

That means,  A= 25000 , P= 5000, r= 4.3\% = 0.043

Now <u>plugging these values into the above equation</u>, we will get......

25000=5000(1+0.043)^t\\ \\ 25000=5000(1.043)^t

So, the equation that could be used to determine the time for the speed of the rocket to reach 25,000 kilometers per hour will be:  25000=5000(1.043)^t
