Answer:
possible?? but I think that there is a typo, and that there would not be a bias
Step-by-step explanation:
can we assume that there are no typos in the question
he threw BUTTONS in the air, and look at buttons that landed with the BOTTOMS facing up ??? in that case the weight might bias the orientation of the landing... I think that you have a typo and it just says that he collected 14 BUTTONS, in that case given that they are "IDENTICAL" we most likely can assume that there would be no bias (size color, texture are all the same)
Answer:
54 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Joyce age = x
Alex age = y
3x = 2y - - - (1)
y - 9 = 2(x - 9)
y - 9 = 2x - 18
-9 + 18 = 2x - y
9 = 2x - y
y = 2x - 9 - - (2)
3x = 2y
3x = 2(2x - 9)
3x = 4x - 18
18 = 4x - 3x
18 = x
Hence,
Mrs stone is 3 * 18 = 54 years
Write the vertex form of the equation and find the necessary coefficient to make it work.
.. y = a*(x +3)^2 -2
.. = ax^2 +6ax +9a -2
You require the y-intercept to be 7. So, for x=0, you have
.. 9a -2 = 7
.. 9a = 9
.. a = 1
The equation you seek is
.. y = x^2 +6x +7
So before she earned 100%
then she took a 8% cut
100-8=92
if 59000=100% of x then
x=92%
59000/100=x/92
multiply both sides by 92 to clear fraction under the x term
5428000/100=x
54280=x
her salary after was $54280
