Answer:

The given table DOES NOT represent a linear function as there is NO CONSTANT change in x and y values.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

x -10 -14 -18 -24

y 6 10 16 24

A linear function has a constant change in x and a constant change in y values.

In order to determine whether the table represents the linear function or not, we need to check whether there is constant change in x and y.

It is clear that there is a NO constant change in x

i.e. -14-(-10) = -4, -18-(-14) = -4, -24-(-18) = -6

It is clear that there is a NO constant change in y

i.e. 10-6=4, 16-10 = 6, 24-16 = 8

Therefore, the given table DOES NOT represent a linear function as there is NO CONSTANT change in x and y values.

what is the surface area of a rectangular prisim with a base length of 9 yd, base width of 7 yd,and a height of 4 yd?

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

254 yds²

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 faces of the prism we need to calculate the area of for a rectangular prism.

The base and top of the prism measure 9x7 yards each, so there are two faces with an area of 63 yds² (9 x 7 = 63)

The sides of the prism measure 4x7 yards each, so there are two faces with an area of 28 yds² (4 x 7 = 28)

The front and back face of the prism measure 9x4 yards each, so there are two faces with an area of 36 yds² (9 x 4 = 36)

The total surface area is

2(63) + 2(28) + 2(36) = 254 yds²

Considering the situation described, we have that:

The appropriate null hypotheses is $H_0: \mu = 5.2$ .

The appropriate alternative hypotheses is $H_1: \mu < 5.2$ .

<h3>What are the hypotheses tested?</h3>

At the null hypotheses, it is tested if the mean has not been reduced, that is, it still is of 5.2 hours, hence:

$H_0: \mu = 5.2$ .

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean has been reduced, that is, it is now of less than 5.2 hours, hence:

$H_1: \mu < 5.2$

Flying to Kampala with a tailwind a plane averaged 158km per hr ... The the return trip the plane only averaged 112 km per . . w

AURORKA [14]

W=wind
p + w=158...p=158-w
p-w=112...p=112+w
SO 158-w=112+w
46=2w
23=w
SO in conclusion you have the correct answer of wind being 23km/h while the plane is going 135 km/h

Answer:

$AC = 28$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$AB = 16$

$BC = 12$

Required

Determine AC

Since A, B and C are collinear, then:

$AC = AB + BC$

So, we have:

$AC = 16 + 12$

$AC = 28$
