Solve the following inequality: -20 < 4 - 2x A. 8 >x B. 8 C. 12 > x D. 12

Mama L [17]2 years ago

Answer:

-20 < 4 - 2x (subtract 4 from both sides)

-24 < -2x (divide each side by -2)

12> x  (when you divide by a negative number, the inequality flips)

x< 12 ( I always put it so x is first)

so the answer is C

How can you write the equation for a linear function if you know only two ordered pairs for the function?
Vinvika [58]
1. m
2. One set of ordered pairs
3. b

To show why this is, I’m going to explain how to write the equation for a linear function with two random sets of ordered pairs - (1,0) and (5, 8).

First, find the slope. The formula for slope is m = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1) where m is the slope and (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two sets of points.

This is why #1 is m. M is the letter used when finding slope.

To find m, I plug in the two sets of ordered pairs.

m = (8-0)/(5-1)
m = 8/4
m = 2

An equation for a line (linear function) is written in something called slope-intercept form. It looks like y = mx + b. m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (number y equals when x = 0). If m = 3 and b = 1, the equation would be y = 3x + 1.

Here, you have just solved for m and know it equals 2. Plug that value in for m.

y = 2x + b

To solve for b, plug one ordered pair in for x and y. I will use (1,0)

0 = 2(1) + b
0 = 2 + b
-2 = b

Now that you know b = -2, plug that in for b.
y = 2x - 2. Now you have the equation fo the line.

To gather information on customer satisfaction, a researcher randomly selects four store locations and interviews all the custom
Schach [20]

Answer:

This sampling technique is called cluster

Step-by-step explanation:

Samples may be classified as:

Convenient: Sample drawn from a conveniently available pool.

Random: Basically, put all the options into a hat and drawn some of them.

Systematic: Every kth element is taken. For example, you want to survey something on the street, you interview every 5th person, for example.

Cluster: Divides population into groups, called clusters, and each element in the cluster is surveyed.

Stratified: Also divides the population into groups. However, then only some elements of the group are surveyed.

In this question:

The population is divided into groups(by stores), and all elements of the groups(all customers at the stores are sampled), which is the characteristic of a cluster sampling.

Jesse has 5 and 3/4 dozen eggs. How many eggs does he have.
Leviafan [203]
Ok so lets start with the 5 dozen there are 12 eggs in one dozen so we do 12*5 which gives us 60 and then we figure out what 3/4 of 12 is that sounds confusing the way i typed it. an example is make four piles each evenly numbered so four piles of three so take three of those piles which gives you the number nine so 60 + 9 gives you 69 so Jesse has 69 eggs.

Use estimation to determine which of the following expressions is greater. Explain how you got your answer. 5 × (1.9 + 3.15) and
Sonja [21]
The first one is greater. Adding 3.2 and 0.2 is easy! It's 3.4! Make that 3. Make 6.9, 7. 7×3=21. For the first one, make 1.9, 2. Then Make 3.15, 3. 5×5=25. That is why the first one is greater.
