Answer:
A) y=3/2x-12
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept formula is y=mx+b
mx is the slope.
B is the y intercept
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A. is wrong because having a different height for each seedling and not trying to keep it equal is simply worse than making sure the heights are identical.
B. Completely wrong because it would likely result in 1 plot having more melon seedlings than the other.
C. Correct because it makes sure the seedlings are the same height at the beginning of the experiment, allowing less randomness in the experiment.
D. Putting the taller of a each pair for 1 plot makes it the experiment rigged in favor of the plot with taller seedlings
E. Same issue as D.
Answer:
8,600 acres are old-growth trees.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find this by multiplying the percentage by the overall number of acres
20% * 43,000 = 8,600
The lengths of the rectangles are 7 and 12 respectively. Form the ratio 7/12. The widths of the rects. are x and 5 respectively. Form the ratio x/5. Now equate these two ratios:
7 x
--- = ---
12 5
Solve this for x. One way to do this would be to cross-multiply, obtaining 12x = 35, and solving this result for x. x will be a fraction. Write the numerator and denominator in the boxes given.
Equation is y=kx. We have four chance to figure out k; hopefully they all give the same result
x=9, y=63, y=kx becomes 63=k(9) so k=63/9=7
x=4, y=28, 28=k(4), k=7
The constant of proportionality is 7; we check 2×7=14, 11×7=77
Answer: k=7, y=7x
