Answer:

x ≤ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

                                       -6x - 7 ≥ -19

Add 7 to both sides:            -6x ≥ -12

Divide both sides by 6:          -x ≥ -2

Divide both sides by -1:            x ≤ 2

When you divide by a negative, you have to switch the sign around (hence why I chose to do this in separate steps, so it's clearer)

The sum of two consecutive numbers is -165. Find the value of the smaller number.
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

-83

Step-by-step explanation:

x+(x+1)=number

x+(x+1)=-165

2x+1=-165

-1         -1

2x=-166

/2     /2

x=-83

We can check our work by adding -83+-82=-165 because -83 would be the smaller number.

-83.

Suppose the manager of a gas station monitors how many bags of ice he sells daily along with recording the highest temperature e
Maslowich

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Equation of regression line :

Yˆ = −114.05+2.17X

X = Temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (°F)

Y = Number of bags of ice sold

On one of the observed days, the temperature was 82 °F and 66 bags of ice were sold.

X = 82°F ; Y = 66 bags of ice sold

1. Determine the number of bags of ice predicted to be sold by the LSR line, Yˆ, when the temperature is 82 °F.

X = 82°F

Yˆ = −114.05+2.17(82)

Y = - 114.05 + 177.94

Y = 63.89

Y = 64 bags

2. Compute the residual at this temperature.

Residual = Actual value - predicted value

Residual = 66 - 64 = 2 bags of ice

Kristen invests $ 5745 in a bank. The bank 6.5% interest compounded monthly. How long must she leave the money in the bank for i
podryga [215]

Answer:

1. 10.7 years

2. 17.0 years

3. 2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

Use formula for compounded interest

A=P\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{nt},

where

A is final value, P is initial value, r is interest rate (as decimal), n is number of periods and t is number of years.

In your case,

1. P=$5745, A=2P=$11490, n=12 (compounded monthly), r=0.065 (6.5%) and t is unknown. Then

11490=5745\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{0.065}{12}\right)^{12t},\\ \\2=(1.0054)^{12t},\\ \\12t=\log_{1.0054}2,\\ \\t=\dfrac{1}{12}\log_ {1.0054}2\approx 10.7\ years.

2. P=$5745, A=3P=$17235, n=12 (compounded monthly), r=0.065 (6.5%) and t is unknown. Then


17235=5745\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{0.065}{12}\right)^{12t},

3=(1.0054)^{12t},

12t=\log_{1.0054}3,

t=\dfrac{1}{12}\log_{1.0054}3\approx 17.0\ years.

3. <u>1 choice:</u> P=$5745, n=12 (compounded monthly), r=0.065 (6.5%), t=5 years and A is unknown. Then

A=5745\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{0.065}{12}\right)^{12\cdot 5},\\ \\A=5745\cdot (1.0054)^{60}\approx \$7936.39.

<u>2 choice:</u> P=$5745, n=4 (compounded monthly), r=0.0675 (6.75%), t=5 years and A is unknown. Then

A=5745\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{0.0675}{4}\right)^{4\cdot 5},\\ \\A=5745\cdot (1.0169)^{20}\approx \$8032.58.

The best will be 2nd option, because $8032.58>$7936.39

erik [133]

Answer:

d=3 and e=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

d+e=2

d=2-e-----(1)

d-e=4-----(2)

substituting (1) in (2)

2-e-e=4

-2e=2
