Solutions 

L(m) = 1.5 + 2m

Substitute variable m for 8. 

L(8) = 1.5 + 2(8)

L(8) = 1.5 + 16


L(8) = 17.5 in

L(m) = 1.5 + 2m = L(m) = 25.5

Substitude variable m for 25.5  

25.5 = 1.5 + 2m

25.5 - 1.5 = 2m

24 = 2m

24/2 = m


12 = m

L(m) = 1.5 + 2m.....when snake is 8 months..m = 8
L(8) = 1.5 + 2(8)
L(8) = 1.5 + 16
L(8) = 17.5 inches <==

L(m) = 1.5 + 2m....length is 25.5.....L(m) = 25.5
25.5 = 1.5 + 2m
25.5 - 1.5 = 2m
24 = 2m
24/2 = m
12 = m ....12 months <==

If f(x)=7x-3 and g(x)=x^2-4x, find (f+g)(x).
mote1985 [20]
(f+g)(x) is equivalent to f(x) + g(x)

So that would be (7x-3) + (x²-4x) = x² + 7x - 4x - 3 = x² + 3x - 3

Hope this helps.

What is the slope-intercept equation of the line below
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

A. y = -5/4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find coordinates

(0, 3)

(4, -2)

Step 2: Find slope

m = (-2 - 3)/(4 - 0)

m = -5/4

y = -5/4x + b

Step 3: Rewrite equation (we already found y-int)

y = -5/4x + 3

The university police department keeps track of the number of tickets it write in a year. Last year the campus police wrote 1460
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Ticket writing on campus follows a Poisson process.

Last year the campus police wrote 1460 tickets

So, X \sim Poisson (1460 / year)

1 year = 365 days

So, E(Y) =\frac{1460}{365}=4

So,  the standard deviation of the number of tickets written per day by the campus police = \sqrt{4} =2

Hence the standard deviation of the number of tickets written per day by the campus police is 2

Jocelyn and Madelyn go to the movie theater and purchase refreshments for their friends.
Alik [6]

let's make p stand for popcorn and d for drinks. Using those variables, we can create our equations:

2p + 3d = 18.25

4p + 2d = 27.50

From this, we can use substitution or elimination to solve:

For substitution, in the second equations, we could factor out a 2, divide both sides by 2, and then move the left over 2p to the other side to isolate d to put into the first equation.

For elimination, we can multiply the first equation by -2 so that we can remove the 4p and focus on solving for d.

I'll be using elimination in this case:

-2(2p + 3d = 18.25) --> -4p - 6d = -36.50

-4p - 6d = -36.50

4p  + 2d = 27.50

-4d = -9.00

d = 2.25

4p + 2 * 2.25 = 27.50

4p + 4.50 = 27.50

4p = 23.00

p = 5.75

Now let's check our answer:

2 * 5.75 + 3 * 2.25 = 18.25

11.50 + 6.75 = 18.25

18.25 = 18.25

So drinks cost $2.25 and popcorn $5.75
