Answer:

N(t) = 0.188t + 22.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of licensed drivers in 2004 = 22.76 million

Number of licensed drivers in 2009 = 23.7 million

Number of licensed drivers, N as a function of t since year 2004 ;

General form of a linear function :

y = mx + c

c = intercept ; m = slope

Intercept c = value of y ; when x = 0

Here, population after uerssmmx,

Hence,

In 2004 ;

22.76 = mx + c

x = 0

22.76 = c

Number in 2009

x = number of yesrs after 2004 ; x = 2000 - 2004 = 5years

We can find the slope :

y = m*5 + 22.76

y = 23.7 in 2009

23.7 = 5m + 22.76

23.7 - 22.76 = 5m

m = 0.94 / 5

m = 0.188

Hence, the linear function can be written as :

N(t) = 0.188t + 22.76

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The total measures of a triangle should equal 180 total. Add the three known angles to get 120. Subtract that from 180 to get 60. So, the last angle measures 60 degrees.

11 more than a number q is negative 15 ; Solve for the variable.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

q = -26

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation where q is the unknown number:

q + 11 = -15

Solve for q by subtracting 11 from both sides:

q + 11 = -15

q = -26

Number 8 and 9 pls, if u answer u get brainlist rank!
mylen [45]

Answer:

8.

Denote the equation : y = ax + b

Use the first 2 values of x and y in table:

3a + b = 21

5a + b = 35

Subtract the 2 equations:

=> 2a = 14 => a = 7 => b = 21 - 3 x 7 = 0

=> The solution is  y = 7x

9.

Denote the equation : y = ax + b

Use the first 2 values of x and y in table:

5a + b = 17

10a + b = 22

Subtract the 2 equations:

=> 5a = 5 => a = 1 => b = 17 - 5 x 1 = 17 - 5 = 12

=> The solution is  y = x + 12

Hope this helps!

If the smallest angle of a triangle is 20° and it is included between sides of 4 and 7, then (to the nearest tenth) the smallest
lawyer [7]

Answer:

3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The smallest side of a triangle is formed by the smallest angle in the triangle.

To find the side opposite (formed by) the 20 degree angle, we can use the Law of Cosines. The Law of Cosines states that for any triangle, c^2=a^2+b^2-ab\cos \gamma, where a, b, and c are the three sides of the triangle and \gamma is the angle opposite to c.

Let c be the side opposite to the 20 degree angle.

Assign variables:

  • a\implies 4
  • b\implies 7
  • \gamma \implies 20^{\circ}

Substituting these variables, we get:

c^2=4^2+7^2-2(4)(7)\cos 20^{\circ},\\c^2=16+49-56\cos 20^{\circ},\\c^2=12.377213236,\\c=\sqrt{12.377213236}=3.51812638147\approx \boxed{3.5}

Therefore, the shortest side of this triangle is 3.5.

baseball card come in packs of a dozen 12 cards matt has 132 baseballcards.how many packs of baseball cards did he buy i need he
Hunter-Best [27]
Well let's see first we have to divide
132 divided by 12 is 11
Now to check and prove your answer we should use the multiplication.
11 times 12 is 132.
So now you have a solid answer with proof behind it.
If u need a sentence you might want it to go something like this;
Matt brought 11 packs of baseball cards since 132 divided by 12 is 11. 12 times 11 is 132 cards.
Hope I helped!
