Answer:

x = the first mystery number = 2

y = the second mystery number = 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = the first mystery number

y = the second mystery number

8*x + 10*y = 24

8x + 10y = 24

7*x + 10*y = 26

7x + 10y = 26

8x + 10y = 24 (1)

7x + 10y = 26 (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate y

8x - 7x = 26 - 24

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into (1)

8x + 10y = 24 (1)

8(2) + 10y = 24

16 + 10y = 24

10y = 24 - 16

10y = 8

y = 8/10

y = 0.8

x = the first mystery number = 2

y = the second mystery number = 0.8

Find the GCF.<br><br> 18c3 and 24c3
12345 [234]

Answer:

6c³

Step-by-step explanation:

18c³ = 2 × 3 × 3 × c × c × c

24c³ = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × c × c × c

Now we show the common factors in bold:

18c³ = 2 × 3 × 3 × c × c × c

24c³ = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × c × c × c

The common factor are:

2, 3, c, c, c

GCF = 2 × 3 × c × c × c = 6c³

On your second day of measuring living trees you find a tree with a diameter of 24 inches! Should you predict the volume of this
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Yes! Extrapolation is fine. Don't worry about it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the data we have ranges from 8 to 22 inches, an extrapolation should be made, which is the process of estimating beyond the original observation interval, the value of the variable based on its relationship to another variable. It is similar to interpolation, which produces estimates between known observations, unlike this, extrapolation is subject to greater uncertainty and a higher risk of producing insignificant results, but because the value is 24 inches, it is not too far away. of the upper limit which is 22, the error should not be very big, therefore the answer is: Yes! Extrapolation is fine. Don't worry about it.
