Answer:
a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.
The GCF of the first two is 4p³q².The GCF of the second two is 8pq⁵.The GCF of the third two is 4p²q⁵.The GCF of the fourth two is 8p²q.The GCF of the fifth two is 4p²q.
To find the GCF of each pair, find the greatest number that will divide into each coefficient. As for the variable portions, choose the variable that has the smallest exponent from each pair.
The answer is .4x because -3.4x+3.8x
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
If we know the value of the car decreases $500 for every 1,000 miles, and that the car is driven about 10,000 miles every year, that means that you need to take the total value of the car (23,000) and subtract it from the amount of money it is losing per year. Again, the car is driven about 10,000 miles per year, so that means that the car will most likely continue to be driven 10,000 miles per year. If you do the math, for one year, the value of the car will drop $5,000 ($500 x 10, because it is $500 per every 1,000 miles) So, for each year, you can just multiply the number of years by $5,000 to find out how much the vehicle has depreciated over time.
