I think what may be confusing is the fact that they also list two three digit numbers with two decimal places each. Since the number is greater than 4.49 with only two digits, it can't be 4.5 since the tenths place is odd. Same goes for less than 4.71. So the only answer would be 4.6--two digits, even tenths place, greater than 4.49 and less than 4.71.
Just some logical thinking, I guess. I think they were trying to trick you on this one.
Good luck.
196.9-57.5= 139.4 million sq miles is water
Probability is described as predicted outcomes over total outcomes so, 139.4/196.9
Answer: C) y = -5x + 27 and D) y = 2x - 15
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Substitute x = 6 and y = -3 into each of the given equations to see which result in a TRUE statement.
A) y = -3x + 6
-3 = -3(6) + 6
-3 = -18 + 6
-3 = -12 FALSE
B) y = 2x - 9
-3 = 2(6) - 9
-3 = 12 - 9
-3 = 3 FALSE
C) y = -5x + 27
-3 = -5(6) + 27
-3 = -30 + 27
-3 = -3 TRUE!
D) y = 2x - 15
-3 = 2(6) - 15
-3 = 12 - 15
-3 = -3 TRUE!
E) y = -4x + 27
-3 = -4(6) + 27
-3 = -24 + 27
-3 = 3 FALSE
