Answer:

Slope is often denoted by the letter m; there is no clear answer to the question why the letter m is used for slope, but its earliest use in English appears in O'Brien (1844) who wrote the equation of a straight line as "y = mx + b" and it can also be found in Todhunter (1888) who wrote it as "y = mx + c".

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helpes, i didn't really know how to answer.

Nick works as a waiter. He earns $75 each weekend plus 15% in tips on meals served. Nick served $675 worth of meals last weekend

maxonik [38]

Answer:

$Nick's\ earning=\$ 176.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total meal served $=\$x$

$Tip=15\%\ of x=\frac{15}{100}x=0.15x\\\\Nick's\ earning=75+0.15x\\\\Here\ x=\$675\\\\Nick's\ earning=75+0.15\times 675=75+101.25=\$ 176.25$

0.09 is 10 times as much as ?

ANEK [815]

To find out the answer we divide 0.09 by 10: $0.09$ ÷10=0.009. Therefore, 0.09 is 10 times as much as 0.009.

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

a. [ 0.454,0.51]

b. 599.472 ~ 600

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval For Proportion

CI = p ± Z a/2 Sqrt(p*(1-p)/n)))

x = Mean

n = Sample Size

a = 1 - (Confidence Level/100)

Za/2 = Z-table value

CI = Confidence Interval

Mean(x)=410

Sample Size(n)=850

Sample proportion = x/n =0.482

Confidence Interval = [ 0.482 ±Z a/2 ( Sqrt ( 0.482*0.518) /850)]

= [ 0.482 - 1.645* Sqrt(0) , 0.482 + 1.65* Sqrt(0) ]

= [ 0.454,0.51]

Compute Sample Size ( n ) = n=(Z/E)^2*p*(1-p)

Z a/2 at 0.05 is = 1.96

Samle Proportion = 0.482

ME = 0.04

n = ( 1.96 / 0.04 )^2 * 0.482*0.518

= 599.472 ~ 600

Bharat and ingrid leave their building at the same time on their bikes and travel in opposite directions. If bharat's speed is 1

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

speed of Bharat = 12kilometers / hour

speed of Ingrid=14 kilometers / hour

For this problem we'll be using formula relating time, distance and speed.i.e

Distance = speed x time

Suppose Bharat is riding at a distance of 'b' kilometers, therefore time taken by him will be:

Time = distance/ speed

Time= b/12 hours.

Also, Ingrid can ride the distance at this time with speed of 14km/hr

The distance would be,

Distance = speed x time

Distance = 14 x (b/12) => 14b/12

Distance= 7b/6

Let ' $d_{b}$ ' be the distance that Bharat have covered after time 't'

therefore, $d_{b}$ = 12 x t

Let ' $d_{i}$ ' be the distance that Ingrid have covered after time 't'

therefore, $d_{i}$ = 14 x t

In order to find the time when they are 78 kilometers apart, we will add $d_{i}$ and $d_{b}$ , because they are travelling in opposite direction creating distance between them.

So,

$d_{i}$ + $d_{b}$ = 78

( 14 x t) + (12 x t) =78

14t + 12t =78

26t= 78

t= 78/26

t= 3hours.

thus, it will take 3 hours until they are 78 kilometers apart
