Answer:

we can verify that the determined equation is the same as the equation determines by Misty, hence, we conclude that Misty had correctly determined the equation of the linear function.

Step-by-step explanation:

As Misty determined the equation of linear function:

y=-2x+9

We need to check whether she has got the correct equation or not.

As the linear equation passes through the points  (1, 7) and (2, 5).

Finding the slope:

The slope between two points  (1, 7) and (2, 5)

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(1,\:7\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(2,\:5\right)

m=\frac{5-7}{2-1}

m=-2

As we know the point-slope form is:

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

So, the equation of the line will be:

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

y-5=-2\left(x-2\right)

Add 5 to both sides

y-5+5=-2\left(x-2\right)+5

y=-2x+9

From the above calculation, we can verify that the determined equation is the same as the equation determines by Misty, hence, we conclude that Misty had correctly determined the equation of the linear function.

Big will's ice cream cone contains 16 grams of saturated fat. This is 80% of his total daily allowance. What big will's total da
Ahat [919]

Answer:

20 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total allowance of fat

16 grams is 80% of his total allowance

x * 80% = 16

Change percent to a decimal

x *.8 = 16

Divide each side by .9

.8x/.8 = 16/.8

x = 20

The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day.
mote1985 [20]

The confidence interval for the mean usage of water is (18.7,20.5).

Given population standard deviation of 2.4, mean of 19.5 gallons per day and confidence interval of 98%.

We have to find the confidence interval for the mean usage of water.

To find out the confidence interval we have to first find margin of error.

μ=19.5

σ=2.4

α=0.98

α/2=0.49

We have to find the z value for the p value 0.49 which is z=2.33

Margin of error=z*μ/\sqrt{n}

=2.33*19.5/\sqrt{3034}

=0.82

lower level=mean -m

=19.5-0.82

=18.68

after rounding upto 1 decimal

=18.7

upper mean = mean+m

=19.5+0.82

=20.52

Hence the confidence interval for the usage of water is (18.7,20.52).
