The answer is x=-5.5 . 2x-3 = 4x+8 . subtract 2x from both sides and then subtract 8 from both sides and get -11=2x . then divide both sides by 2 to get . -5.5=x
Actually it's none of the above .. x should be equal 0.50463 or 109/216..
The shorter side is 40 in and the longer side is 64 in
Answer:
The answers are that a = -5 and b = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find A and B, we first need to find the equation of the line. We can do this by using two ordered pairs and the slope formula. For the purpose of this activity, I'l use (0, 5) and (-3, 11)
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (11 - 5)/(-3 - 0)
m = 6/-3
m = -2
Now that we have this we can model this using point-slope form.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 5 = -2(x - 0)
y - 5 = -2x
y = -2x + 5
Now that we have the modeled equation we can use the ordered pair (a, 15) to solve for a.
y = -2x + 5
15 = -2(a) + 5
10 = -2a
-5 = a
And we can also solve for b using the ordered pair (2, b)
y = -2x + 5
b = -2(2) + 5
b = -4 + 5
b = 1
You already got the first two questions right: the group with the highest number of people unemployed / unemployment rate is the one with the highest bar in the respective histogram.
The two graph are related in this sense: take the first age group as reference. We know that 700 people from 16 to 19 are unemployed, and that those people represent 14% of the population, then we know that the 14% of the population between 16 and 19 is 700.
We can deduce that, if x is the number of people between 16 and 19, we have
So, by the relation between the two graphs, we can deduce the total population for each age group.
