Answer:

x = 20 y= 12

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=32

x−y=8

Add the two equations together to eliminate y

x+y=32

x−y=8

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

2x = 40

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 40/2

x = 20

We know x so we can find y

x+y = 32

20+y = 32

20+y-20 = 32-20

y= 12

On Tuesday the temperature is 1 ºC. By Wednesday it has dropped to –2 ºC. The temperature drops by twice as much from Wednesday

Finger [1]

Answer: $-8^{\circ}C$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The temperature on Tuesday is $1^{\circ}C$

Temperature drops to $-2^{\circ}C$ on Wednesday

Net drop in temperature $1-(-2)=3^{\circ}C$

The temperature drops twice from Wednesday to Thursday

$\Delta T=2\times 3=6^{\circ}C$

Temperature on Thursday

$\Rightarrow -2-6=-8^{\circ}C$

Which statements are true about the residual plot and the equation for the line of best fit for the data? select two options.. t

Nataly [62]

The statements are true about the residual plot and the equation for the line of best fit include:

The equation for the line of best fit is not a good approximation for the data because the points have a curved pattern.

The residual plot has the pattern of a curve.

<h3>What is Residual plot?</h3>

This shows the residuals on the vertical axis and the independent variable on the horizontal axis.

Since the plot has a curved pattern, the equation for the line of best fit is not a good approximation for the data as the result will be inaccurate.

irinina [24]

Answer:

C, -50*hours+475

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to get the total distance left, so we are subtracting the distance traveled from the total. If we travel at 50 miles per hour then the distance traveled is equal to 50*hours and if you subtract that from the total you ahve the distance left.
