For this case, what we are going to do is first define variables.
x: current number of Americans.
y: number of Americans after the next 15 years.
We now write the expression to model the problem, assuming:
"the rate of increase continues in the same way for the next 15-year period".
We have then:
y = 1.76 * x
y = 1.76 * (3.09)
y = 5.44 million Americans
Answer:
the number of Americans on probation in 2010 might be:
y = 5.44 million Americans
Answer: The answers are in the image attached.
Step-by-step explanation: Slope-Intercept equations and graphs.
These are in y = mx + b form. M is slope. b is the y-intercept
For the y-intercept, you identify and label the place on the y-axis where the graphed line crosses it. That is one HINT to figuring out the equation that matches the graph. If the y-intercept is 0, there will be nothing after the 'x' term. If the y intercept ia any other number, that number will appear as a + or - after the 'x' term when you simplify the equation in y = mx + b form.
You have to draw the "stair steps" It helps you see slope. How many blocks up or down is the Rise. How many blocks from left to right is the Run.
Start by making a fraction Rise/Run if the Run is 1, the Slope is a whole number, the Numerator of the fraction (the 1 disappears from the equation).
Answer:
115
Step-by-step explanation:
180-65=115
the whole triangle is 180 degrees so subtract 65 degrees from it
You can simplify it by adding 1 to both sides to get 4x < 12, then divide both sides by 4 to get x < 3.
I hope that answers your question!
