Without the actually predicted values in comparison to the real values it is only possible to give a very likely answer based on their scale:
a) is 25 million off, which sounds bad but when compared to a few billion in population it's not even 1%
b)3 billion is more than half the world population as error: very unlikely
c)154 billion, unlikely that a prediction is off by a factor of ~30
d)same as c

so a) is most likely the solution, but in theory the predictions could be arbitrarily bad (things like negative population, or extreme growths)

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

\mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are:}

                  x=3,\:x=-\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

considering the equation

2x^2\:-\:4x\:-\:3\:=\:x

solving

2x^2\:-\:4x\:-\:3\:=\:x

2x^2-4x-3-x=x-x

2x^2-5x-3=0

\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}

x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=2,\:b=-5,\:c=-3:\quad x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-5\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-3\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}

solving

x=\frac{-\left(-5\right)+\sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-3\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5+\sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2+4\cdot \:2\cdot \:3}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5+\sqrt{49}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5+7}{4}

x=3

also solving

x=\frac{-\left(-5\right)-\sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-3\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5-\sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2+4\cdot \:2\cdot \:3}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5-\sqrt{49}}{4}

x=-\frac{2}{4}

x=-\frac{1}{2}

Therefore,

                 \mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are:}

                  x=3,\:x=-\frac{1}{2}

What is the equation of the line that passes through (5, 3) and (4, 5)
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

y = - 2x + 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 5)

m = \frac{5-3}{4-5} = \frac{2}{-1} = - 2, thus

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (4, 5), then

5 = - 8 + c ⇒ c = 5 + 8 = 13

y = - 2x + 13 ← equation of line

Lee ran a mile in 7 1/3 minutes. His friend Sam ran the same mile in 8 5/9 minutes. How many minutes faster did Lee run? (First
Anna [14]

Answer:

1 2/9 minutes faster

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the larger number and subtract the smaller number

8 5/9 minutes - 7 1/3 minutes

Get a common denominator

8 5/9 - 7 1/3 *3/3

8 5/9 - 7 3/9

1 2/9 minutes faster

Given RT below, if S lies on RT such that the ratio of RS to ST is 3:1, find the coordinates of S.
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

S(-2, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached below,=. Frim the diagram, the coordinate of R and T are (-5, 3) and (-1, -5) respectively. If the ratio of RS to ST is 3:1, the coordinate of S can be gotten using the midpoint segment formula as shown;

S(X, Y) = {(ax1+bx2/a+b), (ay1+by1/a+b)} where;

x1 = -5, y1 = 3, x2 = -1, y2 = -5, a = 3 and b =1

Substitute the values into the formula;

X = ax2+bx1/a+b

X = 3(-1)+1(-5)/3+1

X = -3-5/4

X = -8/4

X = -2

Similarly;

Y = ay2+by1/a+b

Y = 3(-5)+1(3)/3+1

Y = -15+3/4

Y = -12/4

Y = -3

Hence the coordinate of the point (X, Y) is (-2, -3)
