So it's 2.40 subtract 2, which is 0.4

then put it over 2, you get 0.4/2, which is equal to 0.2

0.2= 20% so it's 20% of increase

Answer:

B. ZY

Step-by-step explanation:

The longest side of any triangle will always correlate with the largest angle. Since m∠A = 116° and is biggest, the corresponding side ZY would be the largest side.

Which of the following graphs represents a function?

kirza4 [7]

The third graph represents a function.

In a function, every input (x value) has <em>exactly</em> one output (y value). If even a single input has zero or two outputs, the graph does not represent a function.

A good way of testing this is using a vertical line. As you move a vertical line from left to right across a graph, it should always be touching exactly one point on the graphed line.

In this case, every graph fails this vertical line test except for the third graph, so the third graph represents a function.

Answer:

a. Check the attached image

b. The Pr(Y > 2) = ½

c. The mean is 2.4

d. The standard deviation is: 2.72

e. The exact value is 1 because it is certain from the given data that any probability will fall within that range.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. An image showing the step by step solution is attached.

b. P(Y > 2) = P(3) + P(4)

= 2/10 + 3/10 = 5/10 = ½

c. The mean is 2.4

d. The standard deviation is: 2.72

e. Check the attached image for the steps.

The equation of line L is y=5x+1

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes.

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

L₁ is y = 5x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

L₂ is 2y - 10x + 3 = 0 ( subtract - 10x + 3 from both sides )

2y = 10x - 3 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = 5x - $\frac{3}{2}$ ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

Since L₁ and L₂ have equal slopes then they are parallel lines
