A) Yes because If you divide $2.03 by $0.58 it would equal 3.5 which could be rounded up to 4
B) Percy bought 3.5 pounds of tomatoes

Which equation is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to x + 2y = 16?
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

y=2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b where <em>m</em> is the slope and <em>b</em> is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0)

Perpendicular lines always have slopes that are negative reciprocals. For example, 2 and -1/2. 3/4 and -4/3.

To determine whether a line is perpendicular to x + 2y = 16, we must first determine its slope. Rearrange the given equation into slope-intercept form:

x + 2y = 16\\\\2y =-x+ 16\\\\y=\displaystyle -\frac{1}{2}x +\frac{16}{2} \\\\y=\displaystyle -\frac{1}{2}x +8

From this, we can clearly tell that the slope (<em>m</em>) of the line is \displaystyle -\frac{1}{2}.

The negative reciprocal of \displaystyle -\frac{1}{2} is 2. Therefore, the slope of a perpendicular line would be 2.

Therefore, the correct answer option would be y=2x-2.

I hope this helps!

The price of a cellular phone declines by 33 percents of its current value every year. At this rate, approximately how many year
Jobisdone [24]

Every year, the price of the smartphone is the 67\% of the price of the previous year (since we lose the 33\%, we remain with the 67\%).


Since 67\% can be written as \frac{67}{100}, the price after one year will be


243 \cdot \frac{67}{100} = 162.81


After two years, the price is the 67\% of the price after one year:


162.81 \cdot \frac{67}{100} =  109.08


And so on: after three years we have


109.08 \cdot \frac{67}{100} = 73.08


So, the answer is somewhere between three and four years.

PLS HELP

Answer:

April

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, you find the maximum of the polynomial function. You can do this by either graphing or plugging in the values in a T chart.

I graphed the function, provided down below.

As you can see, the highest value in the graph is the middle most point, aka (4,1). Count down the months of the year to 4, and you'll find that April is the 4th month of the year.

Whats the difference between coterminal, reference, and rotational angles?
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

If two angles in standard position have the same terminal side, they are called coterminal angles.

The reference angle is the acute angle (the smallest angle) formed by the terminal side of the given angle and the x-axis.

Angle of Rotation is the measurement of the amount of the angle, by which a figure is rotated counterclockwise about a fixed point, often the center of a circle. Usually clockwise rotation is called as Negative rotation

The 200 meter race times at a state track meet are normally distributed with a mean of 13.56 seconds and a standard deviation of
storchak [24]

The approximate probability that a runner chosen at random will have a 200 meter time less than 13.5 seconds is 0.4880 ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability of a random variable X which has a normal distribution do that

  • If X < b, find the z-score using the formula z = (b - μ)/σ, where μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation
  • Use the normal distribution table of z to find the corresponding area to the left of z-score

∵ The 200 meter race times at a state track meet are normally

   distributed with mean of 13.56 seconds and a standard deviation

   of 2.24 seconds

∴ μ = 13.56

∵ σ = 2.24

- We need to find the probability that a runner chosen at random

   will have a 200 meter time less than 13.5 seconds

∵ X < 13.5

∴ b = 13.5

- Find z-score

∵ z=\frac{13.5-13.56}{2.24}=-0.02679

- Use the normal distribution table to find the area corresponding to z

∵ The corresponding area of z ≅ -0.03 is 0.4880

∴ P(x < 13.5) = 0.4880

The approximate probability that a runner chosen at random will have a 200 meter time less than 13.5 seconds is 0.4880
