Beth purchased a computer, and its value depreciated exponentially each year. Beth will sketch a graph of the situation, where x

represents the number of years since she purchased the computer, and y represents its value that year. Beth will only sketch the graph in the quadrant or quadrants for which it makes sense to. In which quadrant or quadrants will Beth sketch the graph?

What is x?

It is the number of years since purchase. Can this be negative?

NO! Years cannot be negative. So we disregard negative x-axis.


What is y?

It is the value of the computer at that year. A computer starts off with a positive value (y axis) and depreciates to 0 after some years. Can this be negative?

NO! At 0 value, the computer is worth nothing! There is nothing known as <em>negative </em>value. So we disregard negative y-axis.


The graph that Beth will sketch will have to be in the 1st quadrant (positive x-axis & positive y-axis).

ANSWER: Quadrant I only

A portion of a map with cities a and b is shown.The map uses a scale of 1 inch to 30 miles. A new map has a scale of 2 inches=15
Alina [70]

Answer:

22.5miles

Step-by-step explanation:

For Map 1;

1 inches = 30miles

For Map 2:

2 inches = 15miles

1 inches = x

2x = 1 *15

x = 15/2

x = 7.5miles

This means that 1 inch represents 7.5miles on Map 2'

The distance between the two cities in miles = 30miles - 7.5miles

The distance between the two cities (in miles) = 22.5miles

Given the linear correlation coefficient r and the sample size n, determine the critical values of r and use your
Mila [183]

The critical value of r is mathematically given as r = +0.487, with no significant linear correlation. Option A.

<h3>What are the critical values of r?</h3>

Question Parameters

r = -0.868

n = 5

df = 5 - 2

df = 3

\alpha / 2 =0.025

Critical values r= \pm 0.878

Generally, there exists no linear correlation between the Critical values

as r=0.878

In conclusion,  Critical values: r = +0.487, no significant linear correlation

Helpppp me please!! I dont understand.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

X = 11

X = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1:

The measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of an intercepted arc. So 1/2 mCE = m∠CDE

158 ÷ 2 = 79

You need to find x so you're going to set your equation of (8x - 9) = 79

Then you're going to add 9 to both sides to get 8x = 88

Divide both sides by 8 to get x = 11

Part 2:

We know that WY is 180 because it's a semicircle. Using this and the knowledge that ∠WXY is half the measure of the intercepted arc (180), we know that our equation should be (13x - 1) = 90

add 1 to both sides and our equation is (13x = 91)

Divide both sides by 13 and...

x = 7
