Answer: 9.8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x = 2 inches
Rainfall in April = x inches = 2 inches
Rainfall in May = x + 1.3 = 2 + 1.3 = 3.3 inches
Rainfall in June = 2x + 0.5 = 2(2) + 0.5 = 4.5
Total rainfall = 2 + 3.3 + 4.5 = 9.8 inches
The slope of line T is -1/5, because perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, meaning the opposite sign (positive or negative) and flipped (whole number becomes a fraction).
Answer: It is a continuous random variable.
The amount of rain is a continuous random variable because it can take on all of the numbers on a number line.
For example, the actual amount of rain in April could be 1 inch. Or 1.4 inches. Or 1.45 inches. Or 1.452020980234 inches. There are an infinite possibilities for the amount of rainfall.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of the polynomial is the highest exponent of an expression. When more than one variable is present, its is the sum of exponents on one term in the expression.
The polynomial has terms xy, 3x^2, -7 and x. The term with the highest exponent sum is xy or 3x^2. Both have degree 2. The degree of the polynomial is 2.
