Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well certainly friction alone will not hold it there.

c² = a² + b²

15² = 14² + b²

15² - 14² = b²

b² = 29

b = √29 = 5.385164... = 5.39 ft

storchak [24]

Answer:

a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.

Answer:

  • x = 15/p
  • x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>
  • 4(px + 1)=64
<h3>Find</h3>
  • Solve for x
  • Find x when p = -5
<h3>Solution</h3>
  • 4(px + 1) = 64
  • 4(px + 1)/4 = 64/4
  • px + 1 = 16
  • px = 15
  • x = 15/p

<u>When p = -5, substitute p:</u>

  • x = 15/p
  • x = 15/(-5) = -3
