Hi Kristian
a - 3b = 22
a = b - 2
We need to solve a = b -2 for a
First, we need to substitute b - 2 for a in a - 3b = 22
a - 3b = 22
b - 2 - 3b = 22
-2b - 2 = 22
-2b = 22 + 2
-2b = 24
b = 24/-2
b = -12
Now substitute -12 for b in a = b - 2
a = b -2
a= -12 - 2
a= -14
Thus, the solution is a = -14 and b = -12
The correct option is the last one (-14,-12)
If you have questions about my answer, please let me know.
Good luck!
Histograms are useful when we have data which can be divided into several classes or groups. The histogram shows the trend of each class and the trend among the different classes. For example when we have about 50 different values ranging from 1 to 20, it will be a better approach to draw a histogram in this case by dividing the data into small ranges e.g 1 to 4, 5 to 9 and so on and counting the frequency for each class.
Dot plot is useful when we have a small number of individual values. In this case we can visualize how many times each individual value occurred in the data. This is useful when the number of values in the data is less.
In the given scenario, we have 12 values in total ranging from 1 to 5. So making a dot plot would be the best choice. A histogram would not be useful in this case.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D. Dot plot, because a small number of scores are reported individually
Answer:
z=-21
Step-by-step explanation: (9-3)/2=(6+z)/5
We move all terms to the left:
(9-3)/2-((6+z)/5)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-((z+6)/5)+6/2=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-((z+6)/5)+3=0
We multiply all the terms by the denominator
-((z+6)+3*5)=0
We calculate terms in parentheses: -((z+6)+3*5), so:
(z+6)+3*5
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
(z+6)+15
We get rid of parentheses
z+6+15
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
z+21
Back to the equation:
-(z+21)
We get rid of parentheses
-z-21=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-1z-21=0
We move all terms containing z to the left, all other terms to the right
-z=21
z=21/-1
z=-21
D because it can't be unique since many triangles can share these characteristics. It can't be more than one triangle and the triangle is possible.
