Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

For the x-intercept, we know y=0. We can eliminate B and D.

We know either A or C is the correct answer. This line is linear so there should be only one x-intercept. We can solve this equation to see which is correct. Let's plug in A and C into the equation to see which is right.

A. Correct

$7(-\frac{3}{7} )=2(0)-3$

$-3=-3$

C. Incorrect

$7(\frac{3}{2} )=2(0)-3$

$\frac{21}{2}\neq -3$

Answer:

(-3/7, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

7x=2y-3

To find the x intercept, set y = 0 and solve for x

7x = 0-3

7x = -3

Divide each side by 7

7x/7 = -3/7

x = -3/7

The x intercept is

(-3/7, 0)

Answer:

16 oz, 12 oz, 4 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1 pound is equal to 16 ounces, and you can only use each weight once or not at all, you can determine how much is needed by simply adding.

2 pounds is equal to 32 ounces.

To achieve 32 ounces, you can use a 16 ounce weight, which will then bring the scale to need 16 ounces.

After this you can youse a 12 ounce weight, which brings it down to 4 ounces.

The last weight needed is the 4 ounce weight which will then level out the balance scale.

2. Continuous data are usually _____________________, but discrete data are usually ______________________.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Measured and Counted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Continuous data are usually “Measured”, but discrete data are usually “Counted”.

The continuous data are the data that can be measured, for example, Height of children, time in the race, length of leaf, etc. In this case, the data is taken within the range. While the discrete data is the data that can be counted. For example, the number of employees in the office, the number of students in the school, the result of rolling dice, etc. In this case, the data is a fixed number. Accordingly, the continuous data is measurable and discrete data is countable.

Explain why multiplying two irrational numbers could result in either an irrational number or a rational number.

Nimfa-mama [501]

Because if you multiply 2 different irrational numbers (like the following)
$\sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{17}$
You will get an irrational answer.

BUT
if you multiply the same square root (which are both irrational, you get a rational number)

$\sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{3} = 3$

One fourth of the 120 students took wood shop. How many students did not take wood shop?

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

90 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 1/4 of the 120 students took woodshop, just take the 3/4 that didn't take it:

$\frac{3}{4}(120)$

Find common factors between 4 and 120 to simplify, so 4.

$\frac{3}{1} (30)$

Now multiple across to get 90.
