Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-8.3+9.2-4.4+3.7 john has used his first step as -8.3+9.2+4.4+3.7.

He has use additive inverse as their is no information is given about the additive inverse -4.4 can not be converted +4.4 .this is his incorrect step.

So, the correct steps are

-8.3+9.2-4.4+3.7

= (-8.3-4.4)+(9.2+3.7)

= -12.7+12.9

= 0.2

Hence, there is need to change the step  !.

Hence, the correct answer is 1.

Additive inverse; you can't just take -4.4 and make it positive.

Answer:

QRT = 47, TRS = 133

Step-by-step explanation:

Since QRS is a line, QRT + TRS = 180.

QRT+TRS=180\\3x+5+10x-7=180\\

Then, solve for x. Combine like terms.

13x-2=180\\13x=182\\x=14

Then, plug in 14 for x.

1. (3*14+5)\\\\QRT = 47\\\\2. (10*14-7)\\\\TRS = 133

Answer:

x < -3

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract 6 from both sides of the inequality.

4x+6-6

Answer:

b = 0.0138

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Regression Equation:

DD=2.69+0.0138D

Required

Determine the slope of the regression line

The equation of regression is of the form

Y =  a + bX

Where b represents the slope;

Compare Y =  a + bX to the given equation

DD=2.69+0.0138D

We have that:

Y = DD

a = 2.69

b = 0.0138

X = D

Hence; the slope is:

b = 0.0138
