175 divided by 5 is your unit rate or how many cans it crushes in 1 minute. You get 35. Multiple 35 by 16. So 560 cans crushed in 16 minutes

You can set it up like this:

5/175 = 16/x

Cross multiply to get:

5x = 2800

Isolate x:

x = 560

Check:

In 16 minutes, the machine should be able to crush a little more than 3 times the amount it could crush in 5 minutes. So, 3 times 175 is 525. That plus a bit more is 560, so the answer makes sense.

Final answer:

The recycle machine should be able to crush <em>560</em> pounds of cans in 16 minutes.

Hope this helped!! xx

Answer:

Graph # 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 5y > 15 Let x = 0 solve for y

-2(0) + 5y = 15 change the > to an =

5y = 15

y =3 Point (0, 5) is on the graph

Graph # 3 is correct because the y-intercept is 5

x y

0 3 -2(0) + 5y = 15; 5y = 15

5 5 -2(5) + 5y = 15; -10 + 5y = 15; 5y = 25; y = 5

10 7 -2(10) + 5y = 15; -20 + 5y = 15; 5y = 35; y = 7

The graph > the line is dotted and you will shade above the line

For this case the factor would be:

Road conditions

Because we are testing a new type of tire in order to determine if the time to 60 mph from a full stop in light raing, ligth snow and dry conditions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

By definition a factor usually known as "the independent variable is an explanatory variable manipulated by the experimenter".

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) "is used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample".

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"

If we assume that we have $p$ groups and on each group from $j=1,\dots,p$ we have $n_j$ individuals on each group we can define the following formulas of variation:
