Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction

19.2 − 15 = 7.5 + 8.4

96/5 − 15 = 7.5x + 8.4

2. Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction again

96/5 − 15 = 7.5x + 8.4

96/5 − 15 = 15x/2 + 8.4 

3. Add 15 to both sides of the equation

96/5 − 15 = 15x/2 + 8.4 

96/5 − 15 + 15 = 15x/2 + 8.4 + 15

4. Simplify

Add the numbers

 96/5 = 15x/2 + 8.4 +1.5

Add the numbers again

 96/5 = 15x/2 + 23.4

5. Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators

96/5 = 15x/2 + 23.4

2 x 5 x 96/5 = 2 x 5(15x/2 + 23.4)

7. solution

x=2

A water truck is filling a swimming pool. The equation that represents this

Luda [366]

Answer:

a. false

b. true

c. true

d. true

e. false

Step-by-step explanation:

a. False. The "unit rate" is 19.75 gallons per minute. The "unit" of a "unit rate" is in the denominator. Here, the denominator of the rate is 1 minute.

b. True. A graph of a proportional relationship is a straight line through the origin.

c. True. In 5 minutes, the water in the pool will increase by 98.75 gallons, about 100 gallons.

d. True. The ratio of a y-value to an x-value will always be 19.75. That is the meaning of this proportional relationship.

e. False. The points (8, 158) or (7.5949, 150) will be on the graph. The point (8, 150) will not.

jeyben [28]

Answer:

(3,16)

Step-by-step explanation:

The degrees of freedom of the critical value F are (k-1,n-k).

We are given that there are four sample group, so,

k=4.

Also, we are given that the each four groups contains five observations, so,

n=4*5

n=20

The critical value F has degree of freedom

(k-1,n-k)

(4-1,20-4)

(3,16).

Thus, the degrees of freedom for the critical value of F are (3,16).

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

b) f(x) = x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinate (0, 6) makes the y-intercept = 6. Only one of these functions has that intercept: f(x) = x + 6. If you plug in each coordinate the outputted y-value matches up, making this the right answer.
