The equation y = −3x + 7 represents the amount of water y left in a 7-gallon tub after x minutes. What is the slope of the line? What does the slope mean in this context?

Answers

Answer 1
The slope here is the -3. The slope in this context means how -3 gallons are gone after each minute. For example, after 1 minute, there would be 4 gallons left.

Hope this helps!!
Answer 2

The slope means in this context, the draining of water is 3 gallons per minute. Then the slope of the line will be negative 3.

What is a linear equation?

A relationship between two or more parameters that, when shown on a graph, produces a linear model. The degree of the variable will be one.

The linear equation is given as,

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.

The equation is given below.

y = −3x + 7, represents the amount of water y left in a 7-gallon tub after x minutes.

Then the slope of the line will be negative 3.

The slope means in this context, the draining of water is 3 gallons per minute.

A line has a slope of -2/3 and passes through the point -3 and eight what is the equation of the line

Answers

Answer:

Y=-2/3x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the slope -2/3, so we can find the y intercept by plugging in the given coordinate (-3,8). if y=mx+b, 8=-2/3(-3)+b. If you simplify the equation, you would get 8=-2+b, and then you would get 10=b. 10 would then be the y intercept.

72 red roses, 60 pink roses, and 48 yellow roses. What is the greatest number of bouquets that the florist can make if no roses are left over?

Answers

Answer:

12 bouquets

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine what the greatest common factor is in this case...

72/12 = 6 red roses

60/12 = 5 pink roses

48/12 = 4 yellow roses

As you can see the greatest common factor is 12. Therefore the greatest number of bouquets that the florist can make if no roses are left over should be 12 bouquets.

Explain how to estimate the product of 12 x 6. Use complete sentences in your answer.


WRITER
I need a written response pls not just the answer

Answers

Answer:

  10×6 with 20% added = 60+12 = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways to estimate the product of these numbers. One way is to round 12 to 10, then multiply 10×6 to get 60 as an estimate. You know this estimate is low, because you rounded down from 12 to 10. You know that a better estimate will be about 20% higher, because 12 is 20% higher than 10.

The product can be computed mentally by recognizing that 12 is 6×2, so the product will be 6²×2. Most schools have you memorize your times tables at least through 10×10, so you already know that 6² is 36. Doubling that value (to 72) gives you the value of 6×12.

Another way to estimate the product is to round 12 to 10 and 6 to 5. Again, you know each of these "stand-in" values needs to be increased by 20% to match the real values. Then the product estimate is 10×5 = 50, and you judge that to be low by 20% +20% = 40%. 40% more than 50 gives you a refined estimate of 70, but you know that, too, is low by a small amount. (Percentage changes can only be added accurately when they are very small. The true error is 44%, which is 20%+20%+(20%)(20%).)

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

x: ____ 1____ 2____ 4____ 8____ 16

p(x): _0.05_ 0.15__ 0.25__0.30__ 0.25

E(X) : Σ[(X). P(X)]

Σ(1*0.05) + (2*0.15) + (4*0.25) + (8*0.30) + (16 * 0.25)

= 7.75

B)

E(x) = u = 7.75

Var(X) = E[(x - u)²*p(x)] = (1 - 7.75)^2 * 0.05 + (2 - 7.75)^2 * 0.15 + (4 - 7.75)^2 * 0.25 + (8 - 7.75)^2 * 0.30 + (16 - 7.75)^2 * 0.25 = 27.7875

C)

Standard deviation (s)

s = √Var(x)

s= √27.7875

s = 5.271

D)

VAR(X) = E(X²) - (E(X))²

E(X²) = Σx²*p(x)

E(X²) = Σ(1^2 * 0.05 + 2^2 * 0.15 + 4^2 * 0.25 + 8^2 * 0.30 + 16^2 * 0.25) = 87.85

V(X) = E(X^2) - (E(X))^2 = 87.85 - 7.75^2 = 27.7875

for a repair job an electrician charges an hourly rate of d dollars plus a flat fee of 50 the electricion charged a total if 114 for a 4-hour repair job. Part B. What is the value of D

Answers

Answer:

B. 4d + 50 = 114

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Hourly rate = $d/hr

Flat fee = $50

Charge for the 4hrs = $114

Number of hours = 4hrs

To find d;

    Total cost  = $114;

             $114  = Flat fee + (rate per hour x number of hours)

            $114 = $50 + 4d

The value of d can be calculate using;

           4d + 50 = 114

The value of d is 4d + 50 = 114
