A physics lab group was conducting an experiment to determine the length of a spring when different objects of varying weight we

re hung from it. After testing ten different objects, the group calculated the following linear regression where x is the weight of the object in ounces and h(x) is the length of the spring in centimeters: h(x)= 2.3x+15.5. What does y-intercept of this equation indicate about the relationship between object weight and the length of the spring?
1) When there is no object on the spring, its length is 2.3 cm
2) When there is no object on the spring, its length 15.5 cm
3) For every ounce of weight, the spring length increases by 2.3 cm
4) For every ounce of weight, the spring length increases by 1535 cm

2). The length of the spring is 15.5 cm, and that's how it hangs
when there's no weight on it.

In the equation, 'x' is the weight of the object. If there's no object, then
x = 0 and h(x) = 15.5 .

QUICKLY!!!<br> I need the answer to this, please
Yuri [45]

8/(1/6) = (8/1)/(1/6) = (8/1) * (6/1) = 48/1 = 48

Patel found the quotient incorrectly since he got 1/48.

To check the division, he needed to multiply 48 by 1/6 and get 8.

Instead, he multiplied 1/48 by 6, so the multiplication done as a check is also incorrect.

100 is what percent of 250?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

100 is 40% of 250

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 250 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.  

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.  

3. If 100% equals 250, so we can write it down as 100%=250.  

4. We know, that x% equals 100 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=100.  

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 100%=250

2) x%=100

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

100%/x%=250/100

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 100 is what percent of 250

100%/x%=250/100

(100/x)*x=(250/100)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

100=2.5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.5) to get x

100/2.5=x  

40=x  

x=40

now we have:  

100 is 40% of 250

Find 2 numbers a and b whose sum is 4 and whose difference is -2​
umka21 [38]

Answer:

a = 1, b = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b = 4

a - b = -2     Adding to eliminate b:

2a = 2

a = 1

So 1 + b = 4

giving b = 3.
