Explain what independent and dependent variables mean

Answer:

please give me brainlist and follow

Step-by-step explanation:

You can think of independent and dependent variables in terms of cause and effect: an independent variable is the variable you think is the cause, while a dependent variable is the effect. In an experiment, you manipulate the independent variable and measure the outcome in the dependent variable.

Solve the system of equations. y = -5x + 24 y = 4x - 21 a. ( -5, -1) c. ( -1, 5) b. ( 5, -1) d. No solution
Svetlanka [38]

y = -5x + 24

y = 4x - 21

Since both of these equations are equal to Y, theyre equal to each other.

So we can make an equation with y = -5x + 24 in one side and y = 4x - 21 on the other.

-5x + 24 = 4x - 21

Now in order to get the value of x we need to isolate it in one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 24 from both sides of the equation:

-5x + 24 - 24 = 4x - 21 - 24

-5x = 4x - 45

Now we subtract 4x from both sides so the 4x shift to the other side

-5x - 4x = 4x - 4x - 45

-9x = -45

Finally divide both sides by -9 so x is by itself

(-9)÷(-9x) = -(45)÷(-9)

x = 5

Since we did all of this to BOTH sides of the equation, both sides are still equal to each other and the equation still is true.

Now apply x = 5 to either of the initial equations to find the value of Y

y = -5x + 24 or y = 4x - 21

(I'll do both but u only need one)

y = -5(5) + 24

y = -25 + 24

y = -1

y = 4(5) - 21

y = 20 - 21

y = -1

Either way, X is 5 and Y is -1

Answer (5, -1)

A researcher records the odometer reading and age of used Hondas. What kind of correlation is likely to be obtained for these tw
tresset_1 [31]

Using the concept of correlation, it is found that a strong positive correlation is expected between these two variables.

  • When two variables are direct proportional, that is, both increase together, there is a <em>strong positive correlation.</em>

In this problem, <u>the older the car</u>, the more it should have traveled, that is, the <u>higher the read on the odometer</u>, hence, there is a <em>direct proportional</em> relationship, which means that the variables have a strong positive correlation.

The sum of three numbers is 85. The second is 7 more than the first. The third is 2 more than four times the second. Find the nu
9966 [12]
Let x=the first number
Then x+7=second number
And 4(x+7)+2=third number (2 more than 4 times the second)
Now we are told that:
x+(x+7)+(4(x+7)+2)=85 get rid of parentheses
x+x+7+4x+28+2=85 simplify
6x+37=85 subtract 37 from each side
6x+37-37=85-37
6x=48
x=8---first number
x+7=8+7=15 second number
4(x+7)+2=4*15+2=62 third number

8+15+62=85
85=85
