Answer:
a) 0.75 inch/month
b) y-20 = 0.75(x-4)
c) 17 inches
d) 44
a) 0.8 inch/month
b) yes
c) y = 0.8x + 18.8
d) 18.8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
a) (21.5-20)/(6-4) = 1.5/2
= 0.75 inch/month
If this is correct, 2 months after the 6th month (month 8), it should be
21.5 + 2(0.75) = 23
Which it is
b) y-y1 = m(x-x1)
Where y is the length, x is the months, m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a known point
At x = 4, y = 20
y-20 = 0.75(x-4)
Or
y = 0.75x + c
20 = 0.75(4) + c
c = 20 - 3 = 17
y = 0.75x + 17
c) at birth, 4 months before month 4
So, 20 - 0.75(4) = 17
Which is also the y-intercept
d) y = 0.75(36) + 17
y = 27 + 4 = 44 inches
Generally, at the age of 3 years (36 month) the length is between 35 and 40 inches
a) slope = (30-22)/(14-4)
= 0.8 inch/month
b) 0.8 > 0.75, so yes
c) When x = 4, y = 22
y-22 = 0.8(x - 4)
y - 22 = 0.8x - 3.2
y = 0.8x + 18.8
y-intercept is 18.8
d) at birth, x = 0.
Length was 18.8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The z-scores for a woman 6 feet tall is 2.96 and the z-scores for a a man 5'10" tall is 0.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y area the random variable that represents the heights of women and men.
Given : The heights of women aged 20 to 29 are approximately Normal with mean 64 inches and standard deviation 2.7 inches.
i.e.

Since , 
Then, z-score corresponds to a woman 6 feet tall (i.e. x=72 inches).
[∵ 1 foot = 12 inches , 6 feet = 6(12)=72 inches]

Men the same age have mean height 69.3 inches with standard deviation 2.8 inches.
i.e.

Then, z-score corresponds to a man 5'10" tall (i.e. y =70 inches).
[∵ 1 foot = 12 inches , 5 feet 10 inches= 5(12)+10=70 inches]

∴ The z-scores for a woman 6 feet tall is 2.96 and the z-scores for a a man 5'10" tall is 0.25.
Answer:
4x-12 or 4(x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
9x+9+2x-7(3+x)
9x+2x+9-21-7x
11x-12-7x
11x-7x-12
4x-12
Answer:
333.15 Kelvin (K)
Step-by-step explanation:
When you convert from Celsius to Kelvin, you add 273.15
60 C + 273.15 = 333.15 K
So, that is the answer. Hope this helps!
x-17= 23
move -17 to the other side
sign changes from -17 to +17
x-17+17= 23+17
x= 23+17
Answer:
x= 40
