One <u>possible story</u> is:
I had 5 apples. My sister gave me 7, and now I have 12.
Explanation:
We are writing a story for 5+7=12. This means we need to start with 5 objects and somehow gain 7 more. In our story, we start with 5 apples and we get 7 more.
The last part is that our total must be 12. In our story, we end with 12 apples.
Answer:
y = 0.265x - 494.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let median age be represent by 'a' and time be represent by 't'
In 1980, median age is given 30
which means that
a₁ = 30
t₁ = 1980
In 2000, the median age is given 35.3
which means that.
a₂ = 35.3
t₂ = 2000
The slope 'm' of the linear equation can be found by:
m = (a₂ - a₁) /(t₂ - t₁)
m = (35.3 - 30)/(2000-1980)
m = 0.265
General form of linear equation is given by:
y = mx + c
y = 0.265x +c
Substitute point (1980,30) in the equation.
30 = 0.265(1980) + c
c = -494.7
Hence the the linear equation can be written as:
y = mx + c
y = 0.265x - 494.7
A true because this is an example of the Associative Property by moving the parentheses but having the same outcome.
