Answer:

y=3x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

If equations of lines are parallel, their slopes are the same. Therefore, we can sub '3' in for the slope value in y=mx+c to get y=3x+c.

Sub in the point:

6=3(1)+c

c=6-3=3

ANS: y=3x+3

Answer:

y = 3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 2 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes, so

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (1, 6) into the partial equation

6 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 3 = 3

y = 3x + 3 ← equation of parallel line

If male and female college students work an average of 15 hours per week during the school year and the standard deviation is 5.

ki77a [65]

The variance of hours males spend working is almost two times as large as females. 60% of those females are more likely to work between 12.7 to 17.3 hours while 60% of the males work between 9.6 to 20.3 hours based on one standard deviation.

The amount A of the radioactive element radium in a sample decays at a rate proportional to the amount of radium present. Given

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

a) $\frac{dm}{dt} = -k\cdot m$ , b) $m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$ , c) $m(t) = 10\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{2438.155} }$ , d) $m(300) \approx 8.842\,g$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let assume an initial mass m decaying at a constant rate k throughout time, the differential equation is:

$\frac{dm}{dt} = -k\cdot m$

b) The general solution is found after separating variables and integrating each sides:

$m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

Where $\tau$ is the time constant and $k = \frac{1}{\tau}$

c) The time constant is:

$\tau = \frac{1690\,yr}{\ln 2}$

$\tau = 2438.155\,yr$

The particular solution of the differential equation is:

$m(t) = 10\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{2438.155} }$

d) The amount of radium after 300 years is:

$m(300) \approx 8.842\,g$

. You work at a department store and make $9 per hour plus 12% commission

Luda [366]

Start with hours worked 6 x $9 = 54
Then commission $700 x 0.12 (12% converted to a decimal) = $84
Add up 54 + 84 = $138 total income

So answers are A, the first C (you make $84 in commission), and the last one, you make $138 in total.
