The complete question is:

Oscar and Maria each wrote an equation that they felt represented the proportional relationship between distance in kilometers and distance in miles. One entry in the table paired 152 km with 95 miles. If represents the number of kilometers and represents the number of miles, who wrote the correct equation that would relate kilometers to miles? Explain why.

  • Oscar wrote the equation = 1.6, and he said that the unit rate 1.6 / 1

represents kilometers per mile.

  • Maria wrote the equation = 0.625 as her equation, and she said that 0.625 represents kilometers per mile.

Answer:

  • <em><u>Oscar wrote the correct equation that would relate kilometers to miles.</u></em>

Explanation:

<u>1. Table</u>

km         miles

152          95

             

<u />

<u>2.  Set the proportion with / and solve for k</u>

  • / = 152 km / 95 miles
  • / = 1.6 km / 1 miles
  • = 1.6 , where  1.6 / 1 represents kilometers per mile.

So, Oscar is right.

<u>3. Solve the proportion for </u>

  • / = 152 km / 95 miles
  • / = 95 miles / 152 km
  • = 0.625 , where 0.625 represents miles per kilometer

So, Maria is wrong.

Find a formula for the given polynomial.
levacccp [35]

In this question, we have to identify the zeros of the polynomial, along with a point, and then we get that the formula for the polynomial is:

p(x) = -0.5(x^3 - x^2 + 6x)

------------------------

Equation of a polynomial, according to it's zeros:

Given a polynomial f(x), this polynomial has roots such that it can be written as: , in which a is the leading coefficient.

------------------------

Identifying the zeros:

Given the graph, the zeros are the points where the graph crosses the x-axis. In this question, they are:

x_1 = -2, x_2 = 0, x_3 = 3

Thus

p(x) = a(x - x_{1})(x - x_{2})(x-x_3)

p(x) = a(x - (-2))(x - 0)(x-3)

p(x) = ax(x+2)(x-3)

p(x) = ax(x^2 - x + 6)

p(x) = a(x^3 - x^2 + 6x)

------------------------

Leading coefficient:

Passes through point (2,-8), that is, when x = 2, y = -8, which is used to find a. So

p(x) = a(x^3 - x^2 + 6x)

-8 = a(2^3 - 2^2 + 6*2)

16a = -8

a = -\frac{8}{16} = -0.5

------------------------

Considering the zeros and the leading coefficient, the formula is:

p(x) = -0.5(x^3 - x^2 + 6x)

Use the following set of data: 5, 7, 7, 6, 4, 8, 17, 5, 7, 5, 6, and 5. Find the interquartile range of the data. *
Leviafan [203]

The answer is 2 because The interquartile range (IQR) is a number that indicates how spread out scores are and tells us what the range is in the middle of a set of scores.

For extra im going to tell you all the quartile ranges.

First Quartile-5

Third Quartile-7

Median-6

Interquartile-2

Coach Posey has $10,000 to invest. He can go to Bryant Bank that pays 5% simple interest or Hornets Bank that pays 4% interest c
Zinaida [17]
Here's what we know: Coach Posey has $10,000, and will be hypothetically investing in Bryant Bank for 12 years at 5% simple interest.

We can calculate the interest with the formula I = prt, where I is the interest, p is the principal (starting amount), r is the rate, and t is the amount of time.

I = $10,000(0.05)(12)
I = $10,000(0.6)
I = $6,000

He started with $10,000, and earned $6,000 interest, so he has $10,000 + $6,000, or $16,000.
