Lola's hair today is 24" long. It grows 1.5" per month. She is a pretty tall girl for her age, about 60" right now! Her brother has long hair too. His hair is about 12" long. What does the y stand for?

Answers

Answer 1

If I'm correct, you're asking which variable is the dependent variable y from the question

Answer and explanation:

The equation can be modelled:

y= 1.5x

Where y is the current length of the hair

x is the number of months of hair growth

We can see from the equation therefore that y is a dependent variable that depends on x the independent variable, the number of months, to get a value. In other words given that her hair grows at a constant rate of 1.5 inches per month, her hair length is based on number of months x of growth in inches of hair.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = 3.875[/tex]

[tex]y = 2.375[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

See comment for complete question.

Given

A.

[tex]x + 3y = 11 => x + 3y = 11[/tex]

[tex]5x - y = 17 => 15x - 3y = 51[/tex]

[tex]16x = 62[/tex]

B.

[tex]x + 3y = 11[/tex]

[tex]16x = 62[/tex]

Required

Determine the values of x and y

The first equation in B is:

[tex]x + 3y = 11[/tex]

In (a): 5x - y = 17 is multiplied by 3, then added to x + 3y = 11.

So, the second equation is:

[tex]5x - y = 17[/tex]

Solving (a) & (b):

[tex]x + 3y = 11[/tex]  --- (1)

[tex]5x - y = 17[/tex] ---- (2)

Make x the subject in (1)

[tex]x + 3y = 11[/tex]

[tex]x = 11 - 3y[/tex]

Substitute [tex]11 - 3y[/tex] for x in [tex]5x - y = 17[/tex]

[tex]5(11 - 3y) - y = 17[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]55 - 15y - y = 17[/tex]

[tex]55 - 16y = 17[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]- 16y = 17-55[/tex]

[tex]- 16y = -38[/tex]

Solve for y

[tex]y = \frac{-38}{-16}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{38}{16}[/tex]

[tex]y = 2.375[/tex]

Substitute 2.375 for y in [tex]x = 11 - 3y[/tex]

[tex]x = 11 - 3 * 2.375[/tex]

[tex]x = 11 - 7.125[/tex]

[tex]x = 3.875[/tex]

"whats the area of a circle with a circumference of 50.24 units"
pls help:)​

Answers

Answer:

200.96 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

50.24/Pi = 16 (diameter)

16/2=8 (radius)

area = Pi(r^2)

area = 3.14(8^2) = 200.96 units^2

200.96
If the circumference is pi times the diameter then you divide 50.24 by 3.14 and get 16. So the if the diameter is 16 the radius is 8. 8 squared is 64 times pi is 200.96. Hope that helps

what is the correct equation for a line with a slope of 5 and y-intercept of 2

Answers

answer: y=5x+2
5 is the constant rate of change, while 2 just adds on to 5 aka the y-intercept

Question 8 of 10
Which equation represents the slope-intercept form of the line below?
y-intercept = (0,2)
slope = -3/7

Answers

Answer:

y = (-3/7)x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

all you need to do is plug the values into the equation! :)

since your slope is (-3/7), plug that in for m.

y = mx + b ⇒ y = (-3/7)x + b

and since your y-intercept is 2, plug that in for b.

y = (-3/7)x + b ⇒ y = (-3/7)x + 2

therefore, the line's equation in slope-intercept form is y = (-3/7)x + 2.

don't worry about the parentheses, i only put them in there to separate the 7 in -3/7 from x. i'm not good at putting equations in here on brainly lol i just wanted to make sure you didn't think that it was -3 over 7x.

Of(x) = (x + 2)2 + 3
O f(x) = -(x + 2)2 + 3

Answers

Answer:

The function which represents the graph is:

[tex]y=-\left(x\:-\:2\right)^2+\:3[/tex]

Hence, option  B is correct.

The graph is also attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, it is clear that:

The vertex = (2, 3)

The y-intercept = (0, -1)

Let us check the equation

[tex]y=-\left(x\:-\:2\right)^2+\:3[/tex]

Determining the y-intercept:

The value of the y-intercept can be determined by setting x = 0, and determining the corresponding value of y.

substituting x = 0 in teh equation

[tex]y=-\left(x\:-\:2\right)^2+\:3[/tex]

[tex]y=-\left(0\:-\:2\right)^2+\:3[/tex]

[tex]y=-2^2+3[/tex]

[tex]y=-4+3[/tex]

[tex]y=-1[/tex]

Thus,

The point representing the y-intercept is:  (0, -1)

Determining the vertex:

The vertex of an up-down facing parabola of the form ax² + bx + c is:

[tex]x_v=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

As the equation is

[tex]y=-\left(x\:-\:2\right)^2+\:3[/tex]

Rewriting the equation [tex]y=-\left(x\:-\:2\right)^2+\:3[/tex] in the form ax² + bx + c:

[tex]y=-x^2+4x-1[/tex]

The Parabola params are:

[tex]a=-1,\:b=4,\:c=-1[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]x_v=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]x_v=-\frac{4}{2\left(-1\right)}[/tex]

[tex]x_v=2[/tex]

Now plug in [tex]x_v=2[/tex] in the equation to find [tex]y_v[/tex]

[tex]y_v=-x^2+4x-1[/tex]

[tex]\:y_v=-\left(2\right)^2+4\left(2\right)-1[/tex]

[tex]y_v=-4+8-1[/tex]

[tex]y_v=3[/tex]

Therefore, the vertex of the equation is:  (2, 3)

Hence, the function which represents the graph is:

[tex]y=-\left(x\:-\:2\right)^2+\:3[/tex]

Hence, option  B is correct.

The graph is also attached.

find the slope of the line parallel to this equation: y=2/5x-4

Answers

Answer:

slope = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] x - 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Parallel lines have equal slopes

Thus the slope of a parallel line is m = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

The clock shows the time that Ron left his home in the morning. He came home 7

hours and 35 minutes later. What time did Ron come home?

Answers

Answer: 14:35 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Missing time that Ron left was 07:00 hrs  

Ron left the house at 07:00 hrs. If he arrived back to the house 7 hours and 35 minutes later, you can find out what time he arrived by simply adding the time he left to the time he stayed outside:

= 7 + 7hrs 35 minutes

= 14 hrs 35 minutes

express each of the following percentages as a fraction.28% 158%

Answers

Answer:

28% = 7/25 and 158% = 79/50

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a percent into a fraction, you have to put the value of the percent over 100.

For 28%: 28/100

28 and 100 are both divisible by 4, so the fraction reduces to 7/25.

For 158%: 158/100

158 and 100 are both divisible by 2, so the fraction reduces to 79/50.  If you teacher doesn't want you do use improper fractions, then 79/50 can further be reduced and becomes [tex]1\frac{29}{50}[/tex].

Engineers must consider the breadths of male heads when designing motorcycle helmets. Men have head breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 6.0 inches and a standard deviation of 1.0 inches. If one male is randomly selected, find the probability that his head breadth is less than 6.2 inches.

Answers

Answer:

0.57926

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean, m = 6

Standard deviation, s = 1

P(x < 6.2)

Obtain the Zscore :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

Zscore = (6.2 - 6) / 1

Zscore = 0.2

P(Z < 0.2) = 0.57926 (Z probability calculator)

Probability of having head breadth less than 6.2 is 0.57926
