What we need to know is how much is 1/3 of 25 2/5.

We will be multiplying fraction by a fraction and for this, it's good to change mixed numbers into improper fractions:

25 2/5=\frac{23*5+2}{5}= \frac{117}{5}

and now we multiply it by 1/3:

\frac{1}{3}\frac{117}{5}=\frac{39}{5}=7\frac{4}{5}

and that's the answer: the basketball equipment weights 7 4/5 pounds.

20. If a certain linear function f(x) is evaluated at 0, the answer is 4.
bija089 [108]

Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points on this line are (0, 4) and (3, 5).

As we move from the first point to the second, x increases by 3 and y increases by 1.  Thus, the slope, m, of the line is m = rise / run = 1/3.

Use the slope-intercept equation:  y = mx + b.

If we use the data from the point (0, 4), we get:

4 = (1/3)(0) + b, so that b = 4.  The desired equation is y = (1/3)x + 4.

A new cream was developed to reduce the irritation caused by poison ivy. To test the effectiveness, researchers put an ad online
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Single Blind (option 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The subjects don't know which cream they have but the technicians do.

If the subject knows which cream they have then they can be influenced by the placebo effect. If they don't know but the technicians do then the technicians will be able to look at unbiased responses from the subjects and tell if it works or not. If the technicians don't know which cream each subject has then they won't be able to learn anything from the responses. The technicians need to know which cream each subject has and the subjects can't know which cream they had.

What is the slope of the line through the points (0,-3) and (2,1)?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

alright so you got 2 points! now this is the slope formula! y2-y1/x2-x1

okay let's label your points! (x1 0,y1 -3) (x2 2,y2 1)

let's follow the formula this makes it so we can solve! 1--3/2-0

I understand you may get a decimal but don't use 2.5 use a fraction because teachers seem to like fractions and general decimals can be hard to use (experience lol) 2.5 is 5/2 so this means your slope is 5/2

this formula works every single time and if you memorize it you can do any other problems with 2 points! please memorize y2-y1/x2-x1
