Answer:

8 family members. Average of 2.6 fish per person.

Step-by-step explanation:

How many family members caught fish? Count only those members who caught at least 1 fish (that's all of them, because nobody caught 0 fish!).

3 + 1 + 0 + 4 = 8 family members.

Average number of fish caught <u>per person</u>. This is the total number of fish caught divided by the total number of people.

This is a little bit tricky because, for example, 4 people caught 4 fish, making 4 x 4 = 16 fish caught.

Multiply number of fish (column 1) by the number of people (column 2):

1 x 3 + 2 x 1 + 3 x 0 + 4 x 4 = 3 + 2 + 0 + 16 = 21 fish caught.

21 fish. 8 people. On average, that is 21 / 8 = 2.625 which rounds to 2.6 fish per person.

Hint: the word "per" means <u>divide</u>, so "fish per person" tells you to divide the total number of fish by the total number of people.

Good Luck!

Qaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Kipish [7]

Answer:

32.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy is driving to Seattle. Suppose that the remaining distance to drive (in miles) is a linear function of her driving time (in minutes). When graphed, the function gives a line with a slope of -0.95. See the figure below. Amy has 48 miles remaining after 31 minutes of driving. How many miles will be remaining after 47 minutes of driving?

Answer: The general equation of a line is given as y = mx + c, where m is the slope of the line and c is the intercept on the y axis. Given that the slope is -0.95, substituting in the general equation :

y = -0.95x + c

Amy has 48 miles remaining after 31 minutes of driving, to find c, we substitute y = 48 and x = 31. Therefore:

48 = -0.95(31) + c

c = 48 + 0.95(31)

c = 48 + 29.45

c = 77.45

The equation of the line is

y = -0.95x + 77.45

After 47 minutes of driving, the miles remaining can be gotten by substituting x = 47 and finding y.

y = -0.95(47) + 77.45

y = -44.65 + 77.45

y = 32.8 miles

Which of the following is an equation of the line that passes through the point (−2, 3) and is perpendicular to the graph of the

Ludmilka [50]

The equation of the line is $y=-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{7}{3}$

Explanation:

The given equation is $y=3 x-2$

<u>Slope:</u>

Since, the equation of the line is perpendicular to the equation $y=3 x-2$ , then, the slope is given by

$m=-\frac{1}{3}$

Hence, the slope is $m=-\frac{1}{3}$

<u>Equation of the line:</u>

The equation of the line can be determined using the formula,

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Substituting the point (-2,3) and the slope $m=-\frac{1}{3}$ , in the above formula, we get,

$y-3=-\frac{1}{3}(x+2)$

Simplifying, we get,

$y-3=-\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{2}{3}$

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{2}{3}+3$

$y=-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{7}{3}$

Therefore, the equation of the line is $y=-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{7}{3}$

Convert the mixed number into improper fraction:
$-\frac{\frac{8}{5}}{-\frac{2}{3}}$

Multiply by reciprocal:
$-\left(-\frac{24}{10}\right)$
$-\frac{1\frac{3}{5}}{-\frac{2}{3}}$

$\frac{12}{5}$

Convert improper fraction to mixed number
$2\frac{2}{5}$
