How do you do: -6(6a-5)=-2(8-5a)

Mathematics
1 answer:
devlian [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. distribute the -6 on the left into the parentheses. you should get -36a + 30.

2. on the side right of the =, distribute the -2 to get -16 + 10a.

now it should look like -36a + 30 = -16 + 10a.

3. move the terms over to isolate the a value. subtract 30 to the right side to get -46 (-36a=-46+10a)

4. move the 10a on the right to the left by subtracting it to the other side.

(-46a=-46)

5.divide by -46 to get a=1

A recent study was conducted to explore the relationship between the weight of a car and miles per gallon (gas mileage). A linea
k0ka [10]

Answer: a.  iv. The weight of a car can be used to explain about 79.6% of the variability in gas mileage using a linear relationship.

b. ii. There is a fairly strong, negative relationship between car weight and miles per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A coefficient of determination (denoted by R²) is a measure in a regression model that determines proportion of the variance in the dependent quantity that is predictable from the independent quantity.
  • It is square of correlation coefficient (R).

Here,   independent quantity = weight of a car  

dependent quantity = miles per gallon (gas mileage)

The coefficient of determination (R²) was reported to be 79.6%.

That means, The weight of a car can be used to explain about 79.6% of the variability in gas mileage using a linear relationship.

  • A correlation coefficient(R) tells about the strength and direction of relation .
  • It lies between -1 and 1.

For the study, the correlation coefficient R is -0.8921.

There is a fairly strong, negative relationship between car weight and miles per gallon.
