Answer: y = -1x + 8

Step-by-step explanation: linear equations must be written in the format

y = mx + b from.

m represents the slope which it -1

b represents the y-intercept which is 8.

Just substitute the slope and y-intercept in the m and b places and that is a linear equation.

Keith's height and his nephews height was at a ratio of 15:7 then, keith's Height increased by 16% and his nephews height double
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

311.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, let's call:

k = Keith's height

n = nephew's height

Since the ratio is 15:7, we have

\frac{k}{n}=\frac{15}{7}\\k=\frac{15}{7}n (1)

Then, Keith's height is increased by 16%, so the new height of Keith is

k'=k+0.16 = 1.16k  (2)

While the nephew's height is doubled:

n'=2n (3)

We also know that Keith is now 34 cm taller than his nephew, so

k'=n'+34 (4)

Substituting (2) and (3) into (4), we get

1.16k=2n+34

And substituting (1),

1.16\cdot \frac{15}{7}n=2n+34

Solving for n,

2.49n=2n+34\\\\0.49n=34\\n=\frac{34}{0.49}=69.4

So the current height of the nephew is:

n'=2n=2(69.4)=138.8 cm

While Keith's current height is

k'=138.8+34=172.8 cm

So their total current height is

k'+n'=172.8+138.8=311.6 cm

Is statistics mathematics or science? defend your answer.
Simora [160]

Answer:

There are few kind of statistics: first of all - Mathematiсal statistics. This is quite a mathematical science.

Its applications widely used in many branches of science. First of all (for me) in measurement theory. When used correctly, there is no objection to this science and its methods.

The use in the so-called "social sciences", primarily in sociology, raises many questions: first and foremost - how representative is the "sample"? To what extent does the question asked by the respondent dictate the “correct” (expected) answer? And so on. Of course, this is not a statistic, but mostly a science-like hype, covering up the absence of objective methods.

Hope this helps <3
