Step-by-step explanation:
a(n) = a +(n-1)d
a=-5
d=5
a(n) = -5 +(n-1)5
=-5+5n-5
=5n-10
a(50) = -5 +(50-1)5
= 240
hope this helps
Distribute
2z-1=z+8-2z
add like terms
2z-1=-z+8
add z to both sides
3z-1=8
add 1 to both sides
3z=9
divide both sides by 3
z=3
Paula's dog is 36 lbs
Use the equation 48=3x+x
Add like terms: 48=4x
Divide: 12=x (x=Carla's dog's weight)
Then Multiply x by 3 to get Paula's dog's weight and you get 36 lbs
Answer:
c) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation for regression line of y on x is given as

where
= predicted value
m = slope of line
b = intercept
m and b are found as

r = correlation coefficient = 0.88
Sx = standard deviation for independent variable x = 13
Sy = standard deviation for dependent variable y = 27
= mean value of independent variable x = 21
= mean value of dependent variable y = 55
Substituting these values in (2) and (3)


Putting these values of m and b in (1)

To get the constant of proportionality (unit rate) you must find the miles driven in 1 hour. To get this you simply divide 200 by 4...
200÷4=50
So, the constant of proportionality is 50 mph.
