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.

Line JK passes through points J(–3, 11) and K(1, –3). What is the equation of line JK in standard form?
Sergeu [11.5K]
Hello!

First of all we find the slope by dividing the difference of the y values by the difference of the x values as seen below.

\frac{-3-11}{1+3} = -\frac{14}{4} = \frac{7}{2}

The slope of our line is 7/2, or 3.5
-------------------------------------------------------------
Now we will put the slope and a point on our line into slope intercept form and solve for b. We will use (-3,11).

11=3.5(-3)+b
11=10.5+b
b=0.5

Our final equation is shown below.

y=3.5x+0.5

I hope this helps!

Suppose a population of deer in the state is 10, 289 and is growing 1% each year. Predict the population after 5 years
eimsori [14]

Answer: the population after 5 years is 10814

Step-by-step explanation:

The population growth of the deer is exponential. We would apply the formula for determining exponential growth which is expressed as

A = P(1 + r)^t

Where

A represents the population after t years.

n represents the period of growth

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 10289

r = 1% = 1/100 = 0.01,

t = 5 years

Therefore,

A = 10289(1 + 0.01)^5

A = 10289(1.01)^5

A = 10814
