Quotient is basically the answer produced when dividing two numbers.

For example, the quotient of 6 and 3 is 2 because when I divide 6 by 3, I get 2.

Eight less than the quotient of x and 3 = $\frac{x}{3} - 8$

x = y - 3 x + 3y = 13 What is the solution to the system of equations? A) (1, 4) B) (4, 1) C) (7, 4) D) (2.5, 5.5)

egoroff_w [7]

X+ 3y = 13
(y - 3) + 3y =13
4y - 3 = 13
4y -3 + 3 = 13+3
4y = 16
4y/4 = 16/4
y=4

x = 4 - 3
x = 1

A) (1, 4)

Check x+3y =13
1+ 3(4) =13
1 + 12=13
13=13

Thaddeus shakes his head as he pays $12.37 to the clerk for lunch. Complaining to a friend, Thaddeus says, “Do you realize that

atroni [7]

his income must be "x" which is the 100%, and we would know that 0.2% of that is 12.37.

$\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 12.37&0.2 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{12.37}=\cfrac{100}{0.2}\implies 0.2x=1237 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{1237}{0.2}\implies x=61.85$

his income must be "x" which is the 100%, and we would know that 2% of that is 12.37.

$\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 12.37&2 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{12.37}=\cfrac{100}{2}\implies 2x=1237 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{1237}{2}\implies x=618.5$

btw he's not making much either way.

Write the equation of the line fully simplified slope-intercept form.

irinina [24]

y=-5/4x +3

The slope(-5/4) is rise over run and negative because the line is sloping down. The y intercept (3) is the point where the line crosses the y axis.

A consumer wanted to compare two types of battery storage. One type is refrigerated and the other is room temperature. It is a c

Answer:

A) Matched pairs design

Step-by-step explanation:

In experimental design, the match pairs experimental design is one that often involves only two treatment conditions; which in this case are the 'refrigerated and the room temperature battery storage types'.

Thus, these two treatment conditions form a matched pair because we are told that 10 fully charged batteries are placed into each type of storage.
