The answer is 4.
37 x 3 = 110
110/ 30 = 3.666
Need atleast 4 for everybody

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

37 times 3 is 111 and since there are 30 pencils in each box they would need 4 boxes which gives them 120 pencils.

Slope Formula: $\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

m - slope
b - y-intercept

Linear Regression

Step-by-step explanation:

We can draw any best line of fit, as long as it is reasonable around the points that are given.

We can just take 2 points and use slope formula and Slope-Intercept Form to find the equation for the best line of fit.

Using Linear Regression, we can determine the true best line of fit using graphing utilities.

Finding the best line of fit

Define 2 points

Point (21600, 205)

Point (27000, 290)

Find slope m

Substitute in point [SF]: $\displaystyle m=\frac{290-205}{27000-21600}$
[Fraction] Subtract: $\displaystyle m=\frac{85}{5400}$
[Fraction] Simplify: $\displaystyle m=\frac{17}{1080}$

Find equation

Define equation [SIF]: $\displaystyle y = \frac{17}{1080}x + b$
Substitute in point: $\displaystyle 290 = \frac{17}{1080}(27000) + b$
Multiply: $\displaystyle 290 = 425 + b$
Isolate y-intercept b: $\displaystyle -135 = b$
Rewrite: $\displaystyle b = -135$
Redefine equation: $\displaystyle y = \frac{17}{1080}x - 135$

Slope-Intercept Form tells us that our slope m = $\displaystyle \frac{17}{1080}$ and our y-intercept $\displaystyle b = -135$ .

Setting this as function f(x), we can see from the graph that it is extremely accurate (Blue line).

Using Linear Regression

Depending on the graphing calc you have, the steps may be different.

Using a graphing calc, we can use statistics and determine the best best line of fit.

When we determine the values, we should see that our equation would be g(x) (Green Line).

While training for a marathon, Jeff wants to increase the number of miles he runs each day. On the first day of training, Jeff r

Answer:

The series is 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the arithmetic series

- In the arithmetic series there is a constant difference between

each two consecutive numbers

- Ex:

# 2 , 5 , 8 , 11 , ………………………. (constant difference is 3)

# 5 , 10 , 15 , 20 , ………………………… (constant difference is 5)

# 12 , 10 , 8 , 6 , …………………………… (constant difference is -2)

* General term (nth term) of an Arithmetic series:

- If the first term is a and the common diffidence is d, then

U1 = a , U2 = a + d , U3 = a + 2d , U4 = a + 3d , U5 = a + 4d

- So the nth term is Un = a + (n – 1)d, where n is the position of the

number in the series

* Lets solve the problem

- Jeff wants to increase the number of miles he runs each day

∴ He will add the initial value by constant number each day

- He plans on increasing the number of miles he runs a day by 1

∴ The constant value is 1 mile

- On the first day of training, Jeff runs 5 miles

∴ The first value is 5 miles

∴ The series is arithmetic

∵ a = 5 , d = 1

- He do that for the remainder of the week

∵ The week has 7 days

∴ The series has 7 terms

∵ The rule of the series is Un = a + (n - 1)d

∵ a = 5 and d = 1

∴ Un = 5 + (n - 1)(1)

∴ Un = 5 + n - 1

∴ Un = 4 + n ⇒ n is the position of the number

- Substitute n from 1 to 7 to find the series

∴ The series is 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11

Sugar expert last year was reduced by 20% from a total of 40000 tonnes. What was the previous years expert?

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

32000 tonnes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given there was a 20% reduction last year from a total of 40000 tonnes .

20% /100% x 40000

0.2 x 40000

8000tonnes

Therefore, previous year’s excerpt = 40000 - 8000

32000tonnes
