Answer:
1. No, 2. 46, 3. The amount of tails flips would be more than the amount of heads flips.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 is no because .77 and .23 are not equal to .5, so her prediction was wrong. 2 is 46 because if you double both the numbers (to get a total of 200 flips), you would get 154 tails and 46 heads. 3 is more tails than heads because that is what we have observed.
All you do is solve for z. So 8z-13=7. To solve for a variable you have to do the opposite to cancel out the numbers on each side. First you add 13 over to 7 to cancel out 13 on the z side. So 8z=20 is what you have left. Then you divide 8 on both sides to cancel out 8 on the z side. what you are left with is z=2.5. Lastly you plug and check. 8(2.5) - 13 = 7, 20-13=7. And thats correct so z is 2.5.
Answer:
a=4
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear equation or y=mx+c. Where y is the number of mosquitos at a particular month and x is the number of months. We know the initial population of the mosquitoes is c=20. They population doubles every month so this is the gradient, m=2. Therefore the equation for the growth of the mosquito population is:
y = 2x + 20.
So after x= 10 months the mosquito population will be,
y=2(10)+20= 40.
There will be 40 mosquitoes after ten months.
The slope is 5
the y intercept is -4
slope intercept form is: y=mx+b
M is always the slope, b is the y intercept.
