Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

B = 70 × r^t

360 = 70 × r⁴

r⁴ = 36/7

4lnr = ln(36/7)

lnr = 0.4094021974

r = e^0.4094021974

r = 1.505917275

At t = 7,

B = 70 × (1.505917275)⁷

B = 1229.435775

Approximately 1229

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

This describes an expotential function

At t = 0, P = 70

Therefore, C = 70

P = 70 e^kt

Solve for k by plugging in (4,360)

k = 0.4094

plug in t(7 hours)

70 e^(0.4094*7)

The answer roughly equals C

Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations.Choose the correct ordered pair. x+y=8 x-y=6
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Solution (7,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the elimination method

x + y=8

x - y=6

--------------Add

2x = 14

 x = 7

Substitute x = 7 into x + y=8

7 + y=8

y = 8 - 7

y = 1

Solution (7,1)

A Simple random sample of 100 8th graders at a large suburban middle school indicated that 84% of them are involved with some ty
Setler [38]

Answer: a) (0.755, 0.925)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion of 8th graders are involved with some type of after school activity.

As per given , we have

n= 100

sample proportion: \hat{p}=0.84

Significance level : \alpha= 1-0.98=0.02

Critical z-value : z_{\alpha/2}=2.33  (using z-value table)

Then, the 98% confidence interval that estimates the proportion of them that are involved in an after school activity will be :-

\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

i.e. 0.84\pm (2.33)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.84(1-0.84)}{100}}

i.e. \approx0.84\pm 0.085

i.e. (0.84- 0.085,\ 0.84+ 0.085)=(0.755,\ 0.925)

Hence, the 98% confidence interval that estimates the proportion of them that are involved in an after school activity : a) (0.755, 0.925)

Write an equation in slope intercept form for a line that passes through the origin with a slope of 3/2
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: y = (3/2)x

m = 3/2 is the slope

(x1,y1) = (0,0) is the point we want the line to go through, aka the origin

Use point slope form, plug in the given values, and convert to slope intercept form

y - y1 = m(x - x1) .... point slope form

y - 0 = (3/2)*(x - 0) .... substitution

y = (3/2)x .... final answer in slope intercept form
