Answer:

$18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

y = 0.9x - 4.5

Where,

x = age in years

y = hourly pay in dollars

what is the best prediction for the hourly pay of a 25 year old?

That is, find y when x=25

y = 0.9x - 4.5

= 0.9(25) - 4.5

= 22.5 - 4.5

= 18

y = $18

The prediction for the hourly pay of a 25 year old is $18

to avoid a large shallow reef a ship set a course from point a and traveled 24 miles east to point b . the ship them turn and tr
Sever21 [200]
First, we are going to find the distance traveled by the ship adding the tow distances:
Distance traveled= 24 mi +33 mi=57 mi

Next, we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance from a to c:
d^2=24^2+33^2
d^2=576+1089
d^2=1665
d= \sqrt{1665}
d=40.8 mi

Finally, we are going to subtract the two distances:
57 mi -40.8 mi= 16.2 mi

We can conclude that <span>if the ship could have traveled in a straight lime from point a to point c, it could have saved 16.2 miles.</span>
