Answer:

y(x)=-0.028x+14.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Birth Rate in 1994 =  14.6 births per thousand population.

Birth Rate in 2004 =  14.32 births per thousand population.

A linear equation is of the form: y=mx+c

Where:

  • x=years after 1994
  • y=the birth rate
  • m=Yearly Birth Rate

First, we determine the birth rate per year

m=\dfrac{14.32-14.6}{10-0}\\=\dfrac{-0.28}{10}\\m=-0.028

Therefore, a linear equation that relates y in terms of x is of the form:

y(x)=-0.028x+c

When x=0, y=14.6

14.6=-0.028(0)+c

c=14.6

Therefore, the linear equation that relates y in terms of x is:

y(x)=-0.028x+14.6

Help plssss no links or files or i will report
ra1l [238]

Answer: 350/12

I think 29 2/12 can be also true because they didn't simplify the 2/12 to 1/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

You'll have to use the basic formula for volume is length × width × height. The sample box has the area of 23 1/3 which is found by length x width. They give you the height 1 1/4. I am assuming you will need to multiply 23 1/3 by 1 1/4. You'll get 350/12.

If it's simplify further it will be 175/6 or 29 1/6 as a mixed fraction.

Find the 96th term of the arithmetic sequence <br> -3, -14, -25, ...
lana [24]

Answer:

-1059

Step-by-step explanation:

Katelyn, this is super easy to understand.

Anyways, to find the 96th term of the sequence, first subtract -14 and -3. You may be thinking it is -17, but it is not. -17 is only if you are subtracting -14 and 3.

(-14) - (-3) = -14 + 3 = -11.

That means the difference between each number is -11.

Now all you have to do is take the -11 and multiply it by 96, which is -1056. Then, add the -1056 to -3, which is -1059. That should be your answer.

Your school may have taught you a different way, but this is my way.
