Well, you will need to find out how much each person reads per hour. To find that out, you will need to divide 126 by 3, resulting in 41 pages an hour. If you do the same thing with Zack, you will be able to find out that he reads 45 pages an hour. Now, you will need to multiply the number of pages per hour by 5! if you multiply 41 by 5, you get 205 pages. If you multiply 45 by 5, you get 225 pages. Pam isnt able to read more than 215 pages in 5 hours, but Zack is able to.
Find the greastest common factor
For #16, it can be assume that the two angles are linear, so set them both equal to 90 (9x+x-10=90) and solve for x. Once you have x, plug it into the equations to find the measure of both angles. If both your final answers are added, they should equal 180. If not, go back and try to find where you messed up.
The equation of the line is y = -2/3(x) - 4
Answer: There is not a good prediction for the height of the tree when it is 100 years old because the prediction given by the trend line produced by the regression calculator probably is not valid that far in the future.
Step-by-step explanation:
Years since tree was planted (x) - - - - height (y)
2 - - - - 17
3 - - - - 25
5 - - - 42
6 - - - - 47
7 - - - 54
9 - - - 69
Using a regression calculator :
The height of tree can be modeled by the equation : ŷ = 7.36X + 3.08
With y being the predicted variable; 7.36 being the slope and 3.08 as the intercept.
X is the independent variable which is used in calculating the value of y.
Predicted height when years since tree was planted(x) = 100
ŷ = 7.36X + 3.08
ŷ = 7.36(100) + 3.08
y = 736 + 3.08
y = 739.08
Forward prediction of 100 years produced by the trendline would probably give an invalid value because the trendline only models a range of 9 years prediction. However, a linear regression equation isn't the best for making prediction that far in into the future.
