Excited about the success of celebrity​ stamps, post office officials were rumored to have put forth a plan to institute two new

types of thermometers. On these new​ scales, degrees°E represents degrees Elvis and degrees°M represents degrees Madonna. If it is known that 30degrees°Eequals=25degrees°​M, 310degrees°Eequals=125degrees°​M, and degrees Elvis is linearly related to degrees​ Madonna, write an equation expressing E in terms of M.

Answer:

E=2.8 m-40

Step-by-step explanation:

We konw that  30°E=25°M and 310°E=125°M

so if we want to write an ecuation that linearly relates E with M, we can use the formula of the line that crosses two points:

Y-y1= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)*(X-x1)

In thts case:

  • Y=E
  • y1= E1= 30
  • y2= E2=310
  • x1= M1= 25
  • x2=M2=125

so

E-E1= (E2-E1)/(M2-M1)* (M-M1)

E-30 = (310-30)/(125-25)*(M-25)

E-30 =280/100 *(M-25)

E-30 =2.8 M- 280*25/100

E-30 =2.8 M-70

E= 2.8 M-70+30

E=2.8 M-40

Good luck!

Put together, Dulcina and Tremaine have 129 total matchbooks. Tremaine's collection has 39 fewer matchbooks in it than Dulcina's
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Let the Dulcina's collection be 'x'

Let the Tremaine collection be 'x-39'

x + x - 39 =129

2x = 129 +39

2x = 168

x = 168/2

x = 84

Dulcina's collection = x = 84

Tremaine's collection = x - 39 = 84 - 39 = 45

Secant TP and tangent TR intersect at point 7. Chord SR and chord PQ intersect
prisoha [69]

Answer:

(C)x=11.6, y=23.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Theorem of Intersecting Secant and Tangent

Applying this theorem in the diagram, we have:

TQ$ X TP=TR^2

10(10+x+4)=16^2\\10(14+x)=256\\140+10x=256\\10x=256-140\\10x=116\\$Divide both sides by 10\\x=11.6

Next, we apply Theorem of Intersecting Chords

PV X VQ=SV X VR

4 X x= 2 X y

Recall earlier we got: x=11.6

2y=4 X 11.6

2y=46.4

Divide both sides by 2

y=46.4/2=23.2

Therefore: x=11.6, y=23.2

A research scientist wants to know how many times per hour a certain strand of bacteria reproduces. The mean is found to be 13.6
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The confidence interval is  13.4<  \mu < 13.8

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample  mean is \= x  =  13.6

     The standard deviation is \sigma =  1.9

     The sample  size is  n  =  189

given that the confidence level is  85% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

            \alpha = (100 - 85 )\%

            \alpha  =  0.15

Next we obtain the critical value  of \frac{\alpha }{2} from the normal distribution table  the value  is  

      Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.44

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

        E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

=>     E = 1.44*  \frac{1.9}{\sqrt{189} }

=>     E = 0.1990

The  85%  confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

        \= x  - E <  \mu

=>      13.6- 0.1990 <  \mu <  13.6+ 0.1990

=>      13.4<  \mu < 13.8

Write the equation of each line in slope-intercept form <br> (just do the graph questions)
anyanavicka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

x=2 y=0

x= -2 y= -4

y=mx+b

b= 2

-4 = -2m +2

-2m= -6

m=3

y= 3x +2

.......

x=0 y=4

x=2 y= 2

y=mx+b

b=4

2=2m+4

2m= -2

m= -1

y = -x +4
