Answer:
The answer is -24, I think!
Answer:
a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.
Answer: n = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
3n +2(n + 2) = 9n + 12
(simplify 2(n + 2)) =
3n + 2n + 4 = 9n + 12
(subtract 9n from both sides)
3n + 2n - 9n + 4 = 12
-4n + 4 = 12
(subtract 4 from both sides)
-4n = 8
(divide -4 from both sides)
n = -2
Answer:
386
Step-by-step explanation:
4+4+5x2x5+(3+3+3)x6x6+2+2
=4+4+5x2x5+9x6x6+2+2
=4+4+50+324+2+2
=386
