5 0

Answer:

The y-intercept is 12.

It represents the original length of the candle.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 12 - 0.2x

y = 0.2x + 12

y = mx + b

b is the y-intercept.

b = 12

The y-intercept is 12.

It represents the original length of the candle.

How many ways can an IRS auditor select 3 of 9 tax returns for an audit?
Olegator [25]

Answer:

84ways

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem on combination. Combination has to do with selection. For example if r objects are to be selected from a pool of n objects, this can be done in nCr ways.

nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!

9C3= 9!/(9-3)!3!

9C3= 9!/(6)!3*2*1

9C3= 9*8*7*6!/(6)!6

9C3= 9*8*7*/6

9C3= 9*8*7*/6

9C3= 504/6

9C3= 84ways

2s + 36 &gt; 50 do fractional solutions make sense in this context? Why or why not
Arisa [49]

Answer:

There may be fractional solutions in this context.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an inequality equation and we have to get a solution to that.

It is, 2s + 36 > 50

⇒ 2s > 50 - 36 {Subtracting 36 from both the sides}

⇒ 2s > 14

⇒ s > 7 {Dividing both sides by 2}

Therefore, solution of this given inequality is s > 7.

Now, the value of s is greater than 7 which may be an integer or a fraction.

So, there may be fractional solutions in this context. (Answer)

ASAP math help algebra plzzz
skelet666 [1.2K]
This is a geometric sequence because each term is a constant multiple, called the common ratio, of the previous term.  In this case the common ratio, noted as "r", is:

8/-2=-32/8=128/-32=r=-4

The first term is -2

Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:

a(n)=ar^(n-1), a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number.

Since we know r and a for this problem already we can say:

a(n)=-2(-4)^(n-1)
