The outlier in the data set is 5
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
7(x + 4) - 7 = 48 - 2x ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side
7x + 28 - 7 = 48 - 2x
7x + 21 = 48 - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )
9x + 21 = 48 ( subtract 21 from both sides )
9x = 27 ( divide both sides by 9 )
x = 3
It will just be 2 since 10 goes into 20 2 times
In science, rate is a<span> quantity measured with respect to another measured quantity. For the data given, we get the rate of each by calculating the slope. We do as follows:
Megan's rate = 12 - 4.5 / 4 -1 = 2.5 inches per week
Suzanne's rate = 11 - 5 / 4-1 = 0.5 inches per week
Therefore, the plant that grew at a faster rate would be </span><span>Megan’s at 2.5 inches per week.</span>
