Answer:

C. Your team plays 3 preseason games.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation y = 2x + 3, y represents the total number of preseason and regular season games that your softball team played this summer.  The variable x represents the number of weeks in the regular season.  Which statement is true?  

 

A. The regular season lasts 2 weeks.  

B. The preseason lasts 2 weeks.  

C. Your team plays 3 preseason games.  

D. Your team plays 3 regular season games each week.

Solution:

The equation for a linear function is given as:

y = mx + b;

where m is the rate of change and b is the y intercept (that is initial value of y at x = 0), y and x are variables.

Given that y = 2x + 3;

The slope (m) = 2 and the y intercept (b) = 3

This slope means 2 games are played every week during the regular season games. The y intercept means that at before the regular games have start, 3 games have been played. Therefore, the team plays 3 preseason games.

A paint manufacturer uses a machine to fill gallon cans with paint​ (1 galequals128 ​ounces). The manufacturer wants to estimate
kvasek [131]

Answer:

a) To determine the minimum sample size we need to use the formula shown in the picture 1.

E is the margin of error, which is the distance from the limits to the middle (the mean) of the confidence interval. This means that we have to divide the range of the interval by 2 to find this distance.

E = 0.5/2 = 0.25

Now we apply the formula

n = (1.645*0.80/0.25)^2 = 27.7 = 28

The minimum sample size would be 28.

b) To answer the question we are going to make a 90% confidence interval. The formula is:

(μ - E, μ + E)

μ is the mean which is 127. The formula for E is shown in the picture.

E = 0.80*1.645/√8 = 0.47

(126.5, 127.5)

This means that the true mean is going to be contained in this interval 90% of the time. This is why it doesn't seem possible that the population mean is exactly 128.

How do I solve this?
serg [7]

Answer:

  (x, y) = (18, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the three lines meet at a single point at lower left (the figure is sloppily drawn), the angle (3x)°+49° is a corresponding angle to (7x-23)°. That means they have the same measure:

  3x +49 = 7x -23

  72 = 4x . . . . . . . . . add 23-3x

  18 = x . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

__

Angles (3x)° and (11y-1)° are "corresponding" angles, so are congruent.

  3x = 11y -1

  3(18) +1 = 11y . . . . add 1, fill in the value of x

  55/11 = y = 5 . . . . divide by 11

The values of x and y are 18 and 5, respectively.

Consider the statement "2 is a factor of n2 + 3n."
deff fn [24]

Answer:

The answer is the last one:

4 , 10 , 18 , (k + 1)² + 3(k + 1) and k² + 5k + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ 2 is a factor of n² + 3n

∵ n = 1 ⇒ ∴ (1)² + 3(1) = 1 + 3 = 4 ⇒ 2 is a factor of 4

∵ n = 2 ⇒ ∴ (2)² + 3(2) = 4 + 6 = 10 ⇒ 2 is a factor of 10

∵ n = 3 ⇒ ∴ (3)² + 3(3) = 9 + 9 = 18 ⇒ 2 is a factor of 18

∵ n = k + 1 ⇒ ∴ (k + 1)² + 3(k + 1) ⇒ before the simplify

∵ n = k + 1 ⇒ ∴ k² + 2k + 1 + 3k + 3 = k² + 5k + 4 ⇒ after simplify
