Answer:

a = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The important point here is that both lines are <em>horizontal reflections</em> of each other. If we treat the line x = a as a kind of "mirror" for these lines, every point at the same y value on each line is going to be an equal horizontal distance from that "mirror". If that's confusing, think about how, as you pull your hand away from a mirror, your hand's reflection seems to go deeper into it. As you bring it closer, your reflection gets closer too. And when you're touching the mirror, it seems like your hand and its reflection are touching!

We want to find that "touching" point for the two lines, the <em>intersection</em>, because it'll tell us exactly where our "mirror" - more commonly called the <em>axis of symmetry</em> - is. The point of intersection of any two lines is the point where their equations are exactly equal to each other.

Our equations are y = 3x - 5 and y = 1 - 3x, so setting those two equal to each other and solving for x:

3x-5=1-3x\\6x=6\\x=1

This tells us that the two lines intersect at x = 1, which is exactly our axis of symmetry, so a = 1!

ANSWER QUESTION A. ANSWER QUESTION B
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

a. There is a causation relationship and positive trend between number of hours on homework and higher test scores.

b. 76

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Since the dots all follow a linear progression and increase closely together this is a positive trend and likely a causation relationship.

b. y=7x+41 can predict a test score. x is the number of hours, so if 5 if the number of hours then y=7(5)+41 = 35+41=76

Name an object that could be about the same length as each measurement. A. 4 inches b. 6 feet c. 1 meter d. 5 yards a. 6 centime
Nastasia [14]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

A. 4 inches: An object that's 4 inches is about 2.54 centimeters or 25.4 millimeters. An business envelope is typically about 4 inches by 9 inches for example.

B. 6 feet: A 6 feet object is quite big when compared to just 4 inches. A feet is 12 inches hence 6 feet is 72 inches. A very tall human being is typically 6 feet.

C. 1 meter: A meter is about 39.37 inches hence it is quite big when compared to a feet. A baseball bat is one meter long.

D. 5 yards: A yard is 36 inches hence a bit smaller than a meter. A trampoline could be 5 yards for example

E. 6 centimeters: one centimeter is 0.394 inches hence smaller than an inch. A 6 centimeters object for example is pencil for writing.

F. 2 millimeters: a millimeter is 0.0394 inches hence smaller than a centimeter and an inch. An orange seed could be 2 millimeters long

G. 3 kilometers: one kilometer is 39370.079 inches hence a kilometer is bigger than inches, meter, feet, yards, centimeters, millimeters. A very big tree could be 3 kilometers long

X+y=15
0.3x+0.6y=0.4*15=6
solve the system of equation.
Multiply equation one by 0.3: 0.3x+0.3y=4.5
subtract the new from the second equation: 0.3y=1.5
