Answer:
Let's start with part B. if it was originally 10 cm tall and it goes up 0.5 cm. each day, then we know that to go up one cm it needs two days. With that information we can say that 8*2 = 16. So it needs 17 days to go up 8.5 cm which would make it 18.5 cm tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 0.5x + 10
0.5x + 10 = 18.5
0.5x = 18.5 - 10
0.5x = 8.5
x = 8.5/0.5
x = 17 days
Answer:
The mean of the combined math and verbal scores is 1100, while the standard deviation is 141.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal variables
Normal variables have mean
and standard deviation 
When we add normal variables, the combined mean is the sum of both means, and the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of both variances. The distribution is still normal.
In this question:
Verbal:
.
Math: 
Combined:


The mean of the combined math and verbal scores is 1100, while the standard deviation is 141.
Answer:
46.6
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
x(t) = - 5 + 6t and y(t) = 3 - 9t
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to identify the set of parametric equations over the interval 0 ≤ t ≤ 1 defines the line segment with initial point (-5,3) and terminal point (1,-6).
Now, put t = 0 in the sets of parametric equations in the options so that the x value is - 5 and the y-value is 3.
x(t) = - 5 + t and y(t) = 3 - 6t and
x(t) = - 5 + 6t and y(t) = 3 - 9t
Both of the above sets of equations satisfy this above conditions.
Now, put t = 1 in both the above sets of parametric equations and check where we get x = 1 and y = -6.
So, the only set, x(t) = - 5 + 6t and y(t) = 3 - 9t satisfies this condition.
Therefore, this is the answer. (Answer)
