Jillian is trying to save water, so she reduces the size of her square grass lawn by 8 feet on each side. The area of the smalle

r lawn is 144 square feet. In the equation (x – 8)2 = 144, x represents the side measure of the original lawn. What were the dimensions of the original lawn?

Answer:

20 x 20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First I just drew out two squares, one was the first un-cut square and the second is the cut one. Since we know that the area of the smaller square is 144, and Area is just side^2 , we know that all the sides of the smaller square are 12. Now, all we have to do is add 8 to 12 to get the original lawn. The original lawn was a 20 x 20 ft lawn.

Answer:

Median

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the data has an outlier (12,985), mean is not the best average.

This data set does not have a modal value

Therefore the best option is Median

Use a graphing calculator to determine the linear, quadratic, or exponential equation that best represents the data. For linear
Sav [38]

The linear equation that best represents the data is given by:

y = 1.35x - 2.11.

<h3>Why is the data best represented by a linear equation?</h3>

We have to consider two things:

  • The data increases over the entire interval, not having changes in the behavior related to increasing/decreasing, hence a quadratic equation would not be a good representation for the data.
  • The increase is best followed by a constant, especially for higher values, and not by a multiplier, hence a linear function is selected over an exponential function.

<h3>How to find the equation of linear regression using a calculator?</h3>

To find the equation, we need to insert the points (x,y) in the calculator.

For this problem, the points are given as follows:

(1, 0.2), (2, 0.4), (3, 1.1), (4, 2.3), (5, 5.1), (6, 6.3), (7, 7.5).

Inserting these points into the calculator, the equation is given by:

y = 1.35x - 2.11.

Below is the graph of linear equation F(x)-2x-4
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

1. B. point B.

2. C. point C.

3. C. point C.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In order to find the graph's y-intercept, we need to locate the point where the line crosses the y-axis. This will always happen at x=0, therefore, the y-intercept is located at point B (0,-4)

2. In order to find the x-intercept, we need to find the point where the line crosses the x-axis. This will generally happen when y=0, so that will be point C (2,0)

3. In order to find the graph's zero, we need to find the point where y=0. In other words, the graph's zero is the point where the function is equal to zero (the x-intercept) so this will br point C again (2,0)

A bag contains 7 pieces of paper numbered 1 to 7. P(2)=. Is this an experimental or theoretical probability and why?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

theoretical probability

Step-by-step explanation:

This is theoretical probability.  The 7 pieces of paper each bear one number from {1, 2, ... , 6, 7}.  There is only one piece of paper marked 7.  So the probability of drawing a 2 is  1/7.

Myra takes 2hours to plant 50 flower bulbs. Francis takes 3 hours to plant 45 flower bulbs. Working together, how long should it
crimeas [40]

Answer:37 and half hrs


Step-by-step explanation:


This is what I get


Myra: 50/2= 25 bulbs/hr.

Francis: 45/3= 15 bulbs/ hr


25+15= 40/hr. Together per hr

Need to find 150 bulbs how many hrs


40/1=150/t

40t=150

T= 150/4

T= 37.5


37hrs and 1/2
