Hello,
(-9)⁴= (-9).(-9).(-9).(-9)= 81.81 = 6561
Answer:
a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.
Answer:
option A
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the standard form by expanding the equation:
y = 3(x-4)^2 - 22
y = 3(x^2 - 8x + 16) - 22
y = 3x^2 - 24x + 48 - 22
y= 3x^2 - 24x + 26
So the correct option is option A
Answer:
The slope is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines always have the same slopes. This equation is in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, m being the slope. Our m, or the slope, is 3, and because the line is parallel, it also has a slope of 3.
