Answer:

a) response variable

Step-by-step explanation:

The response variable is the variable that depends on other variables such as the independent or explanatory variable, it is the variable that is being tested. The response variable is also called the dependent variable.

In linear regression, the y variable is referred to as the response variable while the x variable is referred to as the explanatory or independent variable.

In this case the y variable is "the number of times they cough in a day" and this variation depends on the x variable "number of cigarettes a person smokes in a day".

The Russell family and the Gonzalez family each used their sprinklers last summer. The water output rate for the Russell family'
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Russell family's sprinkler: 40 hours

Gonzales family's sprinkler: 20 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the amount of time the Russell family's sprinkler was on by X, and the Gonzales family's sprinkler by Y.

We can then formulate the equations:

X + Y = 60

X*35 + Y*40 = 2200

We can solve this system multiplying the first equation by 35, and then subtracting the result from the second equation:

35*X + 35*Y = 2100

5*Y = 100

Y = 20

from the first equation:

X + 20 = 60

X = 40

Russell family's sprinkler: 40 hours

Gonzales family's sprinkler: 20 hours

In the diagram, the length of segment BC is 23 units.
timurjin [86]

Both sides should be the same length..

Since we know that BC = 23 you need to find the value of x and put it in the formula.

23 = 2x+7

16 = 2x

x = 8

4x + 1 + 4(8) + 1 = 33 units
