An anthropologist studies a woman's femur that was uncovered in Madagascar. To estimate the woman's height, he uses the equation

h=60+2.5fh=60+2.5f, where hh represents height in centimeters and ff represents length of the femur in centimeters. Which inequality best represents the lengths of the femur that would suggest the woman had a height greater than 160cm?

Answer:

The inequality f>40 represents the length of the femur for which the woman had a height greater than 160cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

h=60+2.5f

Where, h is woman's height in centimeters and f is length of the femur in centimeters.

If woman's height is greater than 160cm, then

h>160

60+2.5f>160

Substract 60 from both sides.

2.5f>100

Divide both sides by 2.5.

f>40

Therefore the inequality  f>40 represents the lengths of the femur for which the woman had a height greater than 160cm.

Jared wrote an equation for the perimeter of an equilateral triangle as 3x = 20. What does x represent in his equation?
ratelena [41]
The perimeter of an object is equal to its sides added up.  Because this is a triangle, it will have 3 equal sides.  Since the triangle has 3 equal sides, its perimeter will be equal to one of its side lengths * 3.  

Because the perimeter will be equal to one of its side lengths * 3, x is equal to one of the triangle's side lengths.

Which equation best represents a trend line for the scatter plot?
kvasek [131]
Y = (-3/7)x + 4

Looking at the graph, you can see the trend line plotted. And conveniently, there are a couple of points on the trend line that are indicated. Those points being (0,4) and (7,1). The equation of a line in slope intercept form is:y = ax+b

Looking at the points available, the point (0,4) already gives us the y intercept since x is equal to 0. So our equation becomes:
y = ax + 4

Now we need to determine a which is the slope. The slope is the change in y divided by the change in x. So let's do that
(1-4)/(7-0) = -3/7

And now our equation becomes:
y = (-3/7)x + 4

And given formatting issues, the first option available is the correct one.
