Average reading score is given by the expression,

        y = 0.153x + 255.4

Here, x in the number of years past 1970.

To find the year in which the average reading score is 259.378, substitute the value of 'y' in the given expression.

y = 0.153x + 255.4

259.378 = 0.153(x) + 255.4

0.153x = 259.378 - 255.4

0.153x = 3.978

x = \frac{3.978}{0.153}

x = 26

That means given average reading score 259.378 will be 26 years after 1970.

       Therefore, 1996 is the year in which the average reading score will be 259.378.

) Find the coordinates of the point A' which is the symmetric point
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Let, coordinate of point A' is (x,y).

Since, A' is the symmetric point  A(3, 2) with respect to the line 2x + y - 12 = 0.​

So, slope of line containing A and A' will be perpendicular to the line 2x + y - 12 = 0 and also their center lies in the line too.

Now, their center is given by :

C( \dfrac{x+3}{2}, \dfrac{y+2}{2})

Also, product of slope will be -1 .( Since, they are parallel )

\dfrac{y-2}{x-3} \times -2  = -1\\\\2y - 4 = x - 3\\\\2y - x = 1

x = 2y - 1

So, C( \dfrac{2y -1 +3}{2}, \dfrac{y+2}{2})\\\\C( \dfrac{2y + 2}{2}, \dfrac{y+2}{2})

Also, C satisfy given line :

2\times ( \dfrac{2y + 2}{2})  + \dfrac{y+2}{2} = 12\\\\4y + 4 + y + 2 = 24\\\\5y = 18\\\\y = \dfrac{18}{5}

Also,

x = 2\times \dfrac{18}{5 } - 1\\\\x = \dfrac{31}{5}

Therefore, the symmetric points isA'(\dfrac{31}{5}, \dfrac{18}{5}) .

victus00 [196]

Complete question :

Hayley is buying herbs. She wants to buy 5/6  ounce of basil. The scale she is using to weigh the basil displays the weight as a decimal. How will she know when the display on the scale is correct to the tenths place? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the fractional expression of weight in decimal form:

5/ 6 ounce of bassil is converted into decimal :

5 / 6 = 0.8333

Hence, for a fraction of 5 /6, we obtain;

5/6 = 0.8333

To the nearest tenth :

0.8
