cupoosta [38]

Answer:

y=-2x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept form is equal to y=mx+c

where y is the y value

x is the x value

m is the gradient

and c is the y intercept

so the equation for this set of values is equal to

y=-2x+7

22. The mean of 15 observations is 32. Find the resulting mean, if each observation is: (i) increased by 3 (ii) decreased by(v)

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

35 ;

32 + v

51.2

Step-by-step explanation:

If each observations in a particular set is increased or decreased by a uniform or fixed number, the mean of the resulting output will also increase by the same amount

Hence,

For 15 observations whose mean is 32

If each observation is increased by 3, then the resulting mean will also increase by 3 ; hence, new mean = 32 + 3 = 35

If each observation is decreased by v ; the resulting mean would also decrease by v ;

32 - v

If each observation is increased by 60% ; the resulting mean will be ;

(1 + 60%) * initial mean

(1 + 0.6) * 32

1.6 * 32 = 51.2

Lisa is sitting on the dock beside the lake she drops a rock from her hand into the lake after the rock hits the surface of the

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer: 4.2495 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Rate of change (speed) when rock hits the lake surface = - 3in/s

Distance or depth after 5 seconds :

Distance = rate of change * time

Distance = (- 3 in/s × 5) = - 15 inches

1 inch = 0.0833 feet

15 inches = (-15 * 0.0833) = - 1.2495 feets

Distance between Lisa's hand and lake surface = 3 feets :

Distance between Lisa's hand and rock after 5 seconds :

(3 feets + 1.2495 feets) = 4.2495 feets

(2x+2y=10)+(-x+y=1)

ruslelena [56]

$\bf \begin{cases}
2x+2y=10\\
-x+y=1
\end{cases}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
-x+y=1\implies y=1+x\impliedby \textit{let's plug that in the first equation}
\\\\\\
2x+2(\stackrel{y}{1+x})=10\implies 2x+2+2x=10\implies 4x=8
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{8}{4}\implies \boxed{x=2}\impliedby \textit{let's plug that in the second one}
\\\\\\
-(\stackrel{x}{2})+y=1\implies \boxed{y=3}$

Jovita divides $12,000 into three investments: a savings account paying 4% annual interest, a bond paying 6%, and a money market

xenn [34]

Answer:

$2080 was invested in the savings account, $4241 was invested in the bond account, & $6539 was invested in the money fund.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a, b, and c be the fractions of the $12,000 that is invested in the savings, bond, & money fund respectively.

Let S1, S2, S3 be the total monies from the savings, bond, & money fund after the year with interest respectively.

We know that a+b+c=1

and

S1+S2+S3 = 12000 + 860

S1+S2+S3 = 12860

From, the question, we know that b = 2a, and c = 1 - 3a based on the condition of 2 times more in the bond account that the savings account.

Thus;

S1 = a(12000)(1.04) = 12480a

S2 = 2a(12000)(1.06) = 25,440a

S3 = (1 - 3a)(12000)(1.09) = 13080 - 39240a

We already know that;

S1+S2+S3 = 12860

Thus, Adding the 3 equations gives;

12480a + 25,440a + 13080 - 39240a = 12860

Thus, simplifying gives;

13080 - 12860 = 39240a - 12480a - 25,440a

220 = 1320a

a = 220/1320

a = 0.1667

So,b = 2 x 0.1667 = 0.3334

c = 1 - (3 x 0.1667)

c = 1 - 0.5

c = 0.5

Thus,

S1 = 12480a = 12480 x 0.1667 ≈ $2080

S2 = 25,440a = 25440 x 0.1667 ≈ $4241

S3 = 13080 - 39240(0.1667) ≈ 6539

So, $2080 was invested in the savings account, $4241 was invested in the bond account, & $6539 was invested in the money fund.
