In a contest to guess the number of jelly beans in a jar, Alice guessed 25;Betty, 18;Clare,23;Dotty,19;Edith,24;and Fran,17. Two

Answer:

<em>There are 21 jelly beans in the jar.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of jelly beans in the jar is $x$

Two were off by 2, two were off by 3, two were off by 4. That means, the six guessed number will be: $(x+2), (x-2), (x+3), (x-3), (x+4), (x-4)$

Given that, Alice guessed 25; Betty, 18; Clare, 23; Dotty, 19; Edith, 24; and Fran, 17.

So, the sum of all six guessed number will be: $25+18+23+19+24+17=126$

Thus, the equation will be..........

$(x+2)+(x-2)+(x+3)+(x-3)+(x+4)+(x-4)= 126\\ \\ 6x= 126\\ \\ x=\frac{126}{6}=21$

So, the number of jelly beans in the jar is 21.

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (1, −4) with a slope of one half . (1 point)

bixtya [17]

3rd one
Reason:
Point slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)
y1=-4
x1=1
m=1/2
Put it all together and you get a final answer of:
y-(-4)=1/2(x-1)
two negatives make one positive
so,
final answer:y+4=1/2(x-1)

suppose y varies directly with x and y=5 when x=20. Write a direct variation equation then find the value of x when y=3/2

jek_recluse [69]

X=k*Y
K*Y=X
K=X/Y
K=20/5
K=4

For Y=3/2
X=k*3/2
X=4*3/2
X=6
