slava [35]2 years ago

Answer:

Extremely large and small numbers that have many zeros are long to write and take up a lot of room. So, by using scientific notation a number can be written shorter. For example, numbers such as 295,000,000,000 can be shortened to 2.95x10^{11}. This is easier to write and understand. This is why the scientific notation is used over standard.

  • B. f(x) = 3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Table A</h3>

This is proportional relationship

<u>The function is:</u>

  • f(x) = 6.5x
<h3>Table B</h3>

<u>The slope is:</u>

  • (10 - 7)/(4 - 3) = 3

<u>The y-intercept is:</u>

  • 10 - 4*3 = -2

Sarah goes for a run around her neighborhood. She runs 2.5 miles in 20 minutes. Sarah’s average speed is ______ miles per minute
MrMuchimi
I think I would first convert it to hours to solve it and then back to minutes at the end. Super strange it’s been asked for in minutes.

So to convert 20 minutes into hours, you need to multiply by 3.

This means you need to do the same to the other side, cause if they’ve travelled 2.5 miles in 20 minutes, they’d travel 3 times that in an hour.

So this is 7.5m/ph

But then they want it in minutes, so I suppose 7.5/60?

So 0.125m/pm?

An amusement park studied methods for decreasing the waiting time (minutes) for rides by loading and unloading riders more effic
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

ANOVA table Source SS df MS F

p-value Factor 1 12.00 1 12.000 1.20 .3153

Factor 2 8.00 2 4.000 0.40 .6870 Interaction 56.00 2 28.000 2.80 .1384

Error 60.00 6 10.000 Total 136.00 11

Since the p -value for Factor A is greater than 0.1, therefore Factor A is not significant. The p -value for Factor B is greater than 0.1, therefore Factor B is not significant. It should be noted that for P-value of both Factor and Factor B to be significant, each factor must not be greater than 0.1
