Answer: 2 inches, 3 inches, or 3.125 and 2.083
Explanations:
The simplest way is to take 20% of the 2.5 inches and go that much above & below 2.5 inches.
2.5 x 20% = 2.5 x 0.20 = 0.5
So 2.5 - 0.5 = 2 inches was predicted
And 2.5 + 0.5 = 3 inches was predicted.
The more complicated way is to see number + 20% of that number = 2.5, and what number - 20% = 2.5.
Which solution sounds more like what you’re doing in class right now?
If it’s the more complicated way:
0.8x = 2.5 (80% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 3.125 inches was predicted
1.2x = 2.5 (120% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 2.083 inches was predicted
Sorry, this is probably confusing. Let me know what questions you have.
I believe it would be as following:
x+7>12
Here, x represents the unknown number. The symbol for no less than is greater than.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5. You are asked to write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form, so you need to determine the slope of the line and the y-intercept.
You're lucky. One of the points, (0,1), has an x-coordinate of 0, so you know that the y-intercept is 1.
Use the coordinates of the points to determine the slope of the line.
slope = (difference in y-coordinates)/(difference in x-coordinates) = (10-1)/(3-0) = 9/3 = 3
The slope-intercept equation of the line is y = 3x+1

7. When x = 0, function A = 0 and function B = 3, so function B has a greater initial value.
Answer:
1 ; 7 /17
Step-by-step explanation:
17 balls numbered 1 through 17
Picking without replacement :
If the second ball picked = 4
P(first ball has a smaller number)
Numbers less Than = (3, 2, 1)
P(number less than second ball Given 4 is drawn for second ball) :
= (3/17 * 1/16) ÷ (3/17 * 1/16) +) 14/17 * 0)
= (3 / 272) / (3 /272) * 0
= 3 / 272 * 272 / 3
= 1
2.)
(8/17 * 7/8) ÷ (8/17 * 7/8) + (9/17 * 1/17)
7/17 ÷ (7 /17) + 10/17
7 /17 ÷ 17/17
7/17 ÷ 1
7 /17
If the equation is 4x+1/3=20, your answer would be x=59/12.
- You would subtract 1/3 from each side. (1/3 - 1/3) (20-1/3)
- Then your new equation would be 4x = 59/3
- You would divide 4 from each side (4/4) (59/3 / 4)
- x = 59/12
