Answer:

$\square\quad{y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+4}\\\\\square\quad{\dfrac{y-5}{x-2}=\dfrac{1}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the same everywhere, so an equation can be written making use of that fact.

$\dfrac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\dfrac{y-5}{x-2}=\dfrac{7-5}{6-2}=\dfrac{2}{4}\\\\\boxed{\dfrac{y-5}{x-2}=\dfrac{1}{2}}$

Cross-multiplying gives ...

2(y -5) = x -2

2y -10 = x -2 . . . eliminate parentheses

2y = x +8 . . . . . . . add 10; next, divide by 2

$\boxed{y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+4}$

These equations match choices B and D.

The head of a computer science department is interested in estimating the proportion of students entering the department who wil

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

At 95% Confidence interval level,Level of significance $\alpha$ 0.05, the value of Z from the standard normal tables = 1.96

Margin of Error = 0.10

Let assume that the estimated proportion = 0.5

therefore; the sample size n can be determined by using the formula: $n =(\dfrac{Z}{E})^2 \times p\times (1-p)$

$n =(\dfrac{1.96}{0.1})^2 \times 0.5\times (1-0.5)$

$n =(19.6)^2 \times 0.5\times (0.5)$

n = 96.04

n $\approx$ 96

If the producer in a food chain has 1000 kcal of energy available, how much energy would each of the consumers have?

madam [21]

Answer:

Primary consumer = 100kcal

Secondary consumer = 10kcal

Tertiary consumer = 1kcal

Step-by-step explanation:

In a food chain, transfer of energy occurs when one organism feeds on another organism. However, only 10% of energy is transferred from one organism to another because energy is lost as heat when the organisms perform metabolism.

In a typical food chain consisting of a producer, a primary (1st), secondary (2nd) and tertiary (3rd) consumer, if there are 1000 kcal of energy available in the producer, then:

- Primary consumer will obtain; 10% of 1000Kcal

10/100 × 1000

Primary consumer = 100kcal of energy.

- Secondary consumer will obtain as follows; 10% of 100kcal available energy

= 10/100 × 100

Secondary consumer = 10Kcal of energy.

- Tertiary consumer will obtain as follows; 10% of 10Kcal of available energy.

= 10/100 × 10

Tertiary consumer = 1 kcal of energy.

What is the scientific notation of 1260000

Sergeu [11.5K]

1.26X10^6
The decimal in this number is at the end of the last zero. move that so that the non zero digit is less than 10 but greater than 1. which is 1.26, since we moved 6 places to the left, the exponent is 6.
