Answer: The word "ensures" implies that it is certain.
In the case of the study, they simply found that the average salary is greater for college graduates. This doesn't mean that in every case the college graduate makes more money.
The problem is the word "ensures". Our study doesn't show certainty only a general pattern.
Answer: 0 slope
The y coordinat for both points is the same and there is no change in slope so it's a 0 slope
A minor league plays 101 games,
They win 14 more than twice as many as they lost.
How many wins and loses?
Okay, simple.
First, write a simple addition equation. In this case wins = w and losses = l.
l + w = 101.
Now, we have to figure out a way to make one of the terms the same term as the other, in this case we can change the terms of w to l.
l = l
w = 2l +14 (14 more than twice the amount)
Okay. So plug in the new amount for w.
l + 2l + 14 = 101. Great! we now have a simple equation. lets solve.
put similar terms together.
3l + 14 = 101
3l = 87
l = 29
So, we have 29 loses, and
w = 2(29) + 14
72 wins!
To check,
72 + 29 = 101, correct!
Hope this helps!
B;
$6.00 lb + 15% = 6.00 x 1.15 = $6.90
$6.90 x 2.6lbs = $17.94
C;
New price is $.90 more.
3.5 x .90 = $3.15 more
