Answer:
Each side of the photocopy of the picture is enlarged by a factor of 2 so it would be A.
Step-by-step explanation:
X < -3. Subtract one from both sides and you get x + 8 over 5 is less than 1. Multiple both sides by 5 and you get x + 8 is less than 5. Finally, subtract 8 from both sides and you get x is less than -3.
Answer: C
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
f(x) = 2x + 1 ⇒ 2x + 1
<u>- g(x) = -(x² - 7) </u>⇒ <u>-x² + 7 </u>
(f-g)(x) = -x² + 2x + 8
Answer: 2√5 - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The "line of best fit" is the result of a linear regression computation. If you have done that, you already know its equation.
If you have "eye-balled" the line into place, then you have to figure out its equation from points you read on the graph. We take a couple of the points to be ... (2001, 1700) and (2010, 2450)
The line through these points will have the equation
... y = (2450 -1700)/(2010 -2001)(x -2001) +1700
... y = (250/3)(x -2001) +1700
Putting x=2013 into this equation, we get ...
... y = (250/3)(2013 -2001) +1700
... = (250/3)(12) +1700
... y = 2700
The population is predicted to be 2700 in 2013.
