Mary is 5 years older than Bob.
Mary is 22 and Bob is 17.

When you subtract 22 - 17, you will get 5. Mary and Bob are 5 years apart.

When you add 22 + 17, you'll get 39, which is the sum of their age.

The equation would be:
m + b = 39
M standing for Mary, B standing for Bob.

22+17= 39 would be the full equation.

M= 22
B= 17.

Sorry if this is confusing and doesn't help you that much, but I really hope it helped! :-)

5x=39 x stands for the age of bob so 39/5 =7.8 which is rounded up to 8 and if you multiply 8 by 5 you get 40 but if you multiply 7.8 by 5 you get 39 so his age would be 7.8 years old.

Answer:

y= -2/5x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Rise/Run with any of the given points! You go up two, left 5. That proves the slope is -2/5. The line hits the Y axis at -6, so the y-intercept is -6!

I hope this helps!!

A rental car company claims the mean time to rent a car on their website is 60 seconds with a standard deviation of 22 seconds.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Since the calculated value of Z does not fall in the critical region we accept our null hypothesis that mean = 60 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

State the null hypothesis

H0: u = 60against the claim

Ha u≠   60   (this is a two tailed test)

Sample size n= 36

Sample mean=X`= 55

Population mean = u= 60

The significance level α = 0.05

Standard deviation= Sd = 22 seconds

Z= X`- u / Sd /√n

Z= 55- 60 / 22/√6

z= - 5/22/6

Z= -1.3635

The value of z from the table is Z∝/2= ±1.96

The critical region is less than - 1.96 and greater than 1.96.

Since the calculated value of Z does not fall in the critical region we accept our null hypothesis that mean = 60 seconds

Y=4x+rx+6 solve for x
Irina-Kira [14]
y=4x+rx+6 

y-6=4x+rx

    Subtract \ 6 \ from \ both \ sides 

y-6=x(4+r)

 
    Factor \ out \ the \ common \ term \ x 

\dfrac{y-6}{4+r} =x   Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 4+r

yarga [219]
I think eight because if you add those days together they will play again in eight days so that they play on the same day.

Sorry if I got it wrong I tried and that's what counts, right?
