Answer:

1.42 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we must take into account that the speed would be to fill a pool for a time, that this case is in hours, therefore it would be like this:

1/5 for the first pipe

1/2 for the second pipe

Now, we will use both at the same time, therefore:

1/5 + 1/2 = 1 / x

0.7 = 1 / x

x = 1 / 0.7

x = 1.42

That is to say that if we use both we will take a total of 1.42 hours

Kira looked through online census information to determine the average number of people living in the homes in her city. What is
Goshia [24]
First we need to identify if the data is qualitative or quantitative.

The data is average number of people living in the homes.

Qualitative data as its name indicates is an attribute or characteristic. It can not be measured e.g color. Quantitative data is such a data which can be counted or measured.

Since the average number of people can be counted and measured, the data is Quantitative.

In an observational study the individuals are observed. In the given case, Kira did not observed the individuals to gather the data, rather she used an Online resource to gather the data.

Therefore, the correct answer will be:
Kira used published data that is quantitative.

Answer:

So 60% of this unknown number is 28

Let this unknown number be n

60/100 × n = 28

0.60 × n = 28

n = 28/0.6

n = 46.7

To the nearest wholw number is 47

So there are 47 votes in total

The function f(x) = –x2 + 20x – 75 models the profit from one customer, in dollars, a shop makes for printing photos, where x is
trasher [3.6K]
The function is graphed as shown below

Part A:

We use the formula - \frac{b}{2a} to find the vertex of the function. A quadratic function of the form of a x^{2} +bx+c and equating this form to the given function - x^{2} +20x-75, we have
b=20 and a=-1.

Substituting a and b into the vertex formula, we have
x=- \frac{20}{2(-1)}=10, as shown in the graph

This calculation means that the highest profit is achieved when the number of photo printed equals to ten photos

Part B:

We can find solution to this equation by factorising

- x^{2} +20x-75=0
-( x^{2} -20x+75)=0
x^{2} -20x+75=0
(x-5)(x-15)=0
x=5 and x=15, as shown in the graph

The two values means that the company makes no profit when they either produce 5 or 15 photos

What is the slope of the line shown?<br><br> -7/9<br> 9/7<br> 7/9<br> -9/7
SpyIntel [72]

To find slope, we must find the change in y values divided by the change in x values, also called the rise/run. This is modeled below:

Slope = m = (y1 - y2)/(x1-x2) = (6-(-3))/(1 - (-6)) = (6+3)/(1+6) = 9/7

We can check that this answer is correct by consulting the graph. The graph shows a positive correlation (means that the slope should be positive), and if you count the graph unit squares, you get that the graph moves up 9 squares and over 7 squares between the two points shown, letting us know we got the right answer.

Hope this helps!
