Equations of straight lines are in the form y = mx + c (m and c are numbers). m is the gradient of the line and c is the y-intercept (where the graph crosses the y-axis).
Answer:
(D) There are probably more blue marbles than red marbles in the bag.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 100 marbles in the bag.
In the experiment of 50 trials, Sam had the following outcome:
Blue=35
Red=15
Relative Frequency of Blue Marbles =35/50=0.7
Relative Frequency of Red Marbles =15/50=0.3
Since the relative frequency of blue marbles is greater than the relative frequency of red marbles, <u>there are probably more blue marbles than red marbles in the bag.</u>
The correct option is D.
Answer:
a = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to add (x^2+3x) to (3x^2+ax),
(x^2+3x)+(3x^2+ax)
Expand
= x^2+3x+3x^2+ax
Collect the like terms
= x^2+3x^2+3x+ax
= 4x^2 + 3x + ax
= 4x^2+(3+a)x
Equate the solution to 4x^2+12x
4x^2+(3+a)x = 4x^2+12x
Comparing the like terms on both sides
(3+a)x =12x
3 + a = 12
a = 12 - 3
a = 9
Hence the value of a is 9

Let x = the number of students at Taft high school
5x-100 = the number of students at Jefferson high school
if x =300 than 5(300)-100=1500-100=1400 students at Jefferson high school
