Answer:

The answer would be A)98.

I got this by taking the 3 test scores that were provided and adding them then subtracting that by 360 (90x4 - which would give you a 90 in the end) so I had 360 - 262 which equaled 98 and that would be the score needed to have a 90 in the end.

\huge \bf༆ Answer ༄

Total points is equal to :

{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}}  \:  \: \sf \:100 \times 4

{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}}  \:  \: \sf \:400 \:  \: points

90 % score is ~

{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}}  \:  \: \sf \: \dfrac{90}{100}  \times 400

{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}}  \:  \: \sf \:90 \times 4

{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}}  \:  \: \sf \:360 \:  \: points

So, he has to get a total of 360 points to maintain 90% score.

let's assume his score in 4th test be ' x '

According to above conditions ~

{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}}  \:  \: \sf \:x + 84 + 86 + 92 = 360

{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}}  \:  \: \sf \:x + 262 = 360

{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}}  \:  \: \sf \:x = 360 - 262

{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}}  \:  \: \sf \:x = 98

So, he must score 98 marks in the fourth test to achieve A (90%) in the course.

Find an equation that is perpendicular to the x-axis and passes through the point (7,13)
rjkz [21]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A line perpendicular to the x- axis is a vertical line parallel to the y- axis.

The equation of a vertical line is

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line goes through

The line goes through (7, 13) with x- coordinate of 7, thus

x = 7 ← equation of perpendicular line

The equation below can be used to find the length of a foot or forearm when you know one or the other. (length of the foot) = 0.
3241004551 [841]
This is child's play. 

So, basically:
Y=Length of foot
X= Length of your forearm. 
This is simple. Your equation is Y=0.860x + 3.302
So, if you have a forearm (x) that is 17 inches long, then plug in x as 17. This leaves you to evaluate for Y.
New equation: Y=0.860(17) +3.302
Work it out, you get: Y=14.62 + 3.302
Work that out, you get: Y= 17.922 inches long. 
And of course, Y is the foot.

So, your answer: If the forearm is 17 inches long, then the foot is 17.922 inches long. Simple.

So, part 2:
Rate of change. Well, you need slope then, because that's the same thing.
Y=mx+b, Where m=slope
Your answer turns to be 0.860 inches per length of arm, for rate of change.

Skipping the data, as that's only something you'd know.

Yes, it is indeed a function. There can't be any exponents greater than 1 on the placeholder, and it's obviously not a straight line if you plug it in. 

So yeah, it's a function.
