Answer:
x=larger no
y= smaller no
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=7--------(1)
x=16 + 2y------(2)
(2)--->(1)
16+2y+y = 7
3y + 16 = 7
3y = -9
y = -3//
so x=10
Answer:
-14/15
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you want to turn each mixed number into an improper fraction. So you get -10/3 + 12/5. Then you want to get the same denominator, and the LCD happens to be 15. You get -50/15 + 36/15. Addition is commutative, so you can do something like this: 36/15 - 50/15. You can do 36-50=-14, and then add the denominator to get -14/15.
Answer:b
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been provided a diagram which tells us that Patti drew vertical line segments from two points to the line in her scatter plot. The first point she selected was dwarf crocodile. The second point she selected was for an Indian Gharial crocodile.
We can see that dwarf crocodile's bite force is closer to line of best fit than Indian Gharial crocodile. Indian Gharial crocodile seems to be an outlier for our data set.
Therefore, Patti's line have resulted in a predicted bite force that was closer to actual bite force for the dwarf crocodile.
