Meg makes a dot plot for the data 9, 9, 4, 5, 5, 3,<br>
4,5, 3, 8, 8, 5. Where does a gap occur?
Papessa [141]
The gap consists of the values 6 and 7.
Check out the dot plot below to see what I mean. We have one cluster on the left from 3 to 5. Then another cluster on the right from 8 to 9.
Please I think the question is not complete
The answer is 16 if you solve it, because the square root of 64 is 8 and 2 * 8 = 16
The answer is:
____________________
x = 4y - 12 ; (Assuming the problem meant to solve for "x"; "in terms of "y").
_______________________
{Otherwise, the question might be "incomplete".}.
______________________________________________
The question seems incomplete; how can we solve for "x" when we do not know what "y" equals?
__________________________
However, it could be possible to "solve for x" in terms of "y". To so this, we need to isolate ""x" on one side of the equation:
_______________________________
Given: <span>y=1/4 (x) + 3 ; Let us multiply the ENTIRE EQUATION (both sides) by "4", to get rid of the "1/4" (fraction coefficent) of "x", and to "cancel out" the "1/4" fraction cofficient of "x" to the implied "1"; to help solve for "x" :
________________________________________
4 *{ </span>y= 1/4 (x) + 3} ;
______________________
4y = x + 12 ; Now we can subtract "12" from EACH SIDE of the equation; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x":
_______________________
4y - 12 = x + 12 - 12 ;
________________________
4y - 12 = x ; This is our answer:
___________________________
x = 4y - 12 ; (Assuming the problem meant to solve for "x"; "in terms of "y").
Answer:
-4.65< -4 and 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, this we can convert the fraction -4 and 2/5 into a decimal so that the values can be more easily compared. When we do this, we get the result that -4 and 2/5 equals -4.4. Now we can clearly see which value is greater because they are written in the same form:
-4.65<-4.4
-4.65<-4 2/5
