A science class is tracking the progress of plant growth. The class starts the experiment with a plant five centimeters high. The plant grows two centimeters each day. The model for plant growth "y" is given by: y = 2x + 5. What is the meaning of the y-intercept in this equation? A) the y-intercept is the starting date Eliminate B) the y-intercept is two times larger than five C) the y-intercept is the starting height of the plant D) the y-intercept is the largest height the plant can grow

Answers

Answer 1
C. The y intercept is the starting height of the plant. 

In the equation of a straight line, there is a slope (2) and a y intercept (5). The y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis. It is the starting point for the y values. The science class starts the experiment with the plant being 5 centimeters high and since this is the starting point/height, this is also the y intercept. 
Answer 2
Its C. The y-intercept is the starting height of the plant.

What is the area of the hexagon? Numerical answer only!

Answers

8 times 3 =24
3 times 2 =6

=30
From here you can split up the hexagon into 2 rectangles. Draw a line from D perpendicular to line AB. 

Area = length x width

We know the upper rectangle's dimensions are 2 by 3 because AB = CD + EF. Put in the numbers, 6 = CD + 3. Solve for CD which is 3. Multiply 2 by 3 to get the area of the upper rectangle. Answer: 6

The lower rectangle's dimensions are 8 by 3 (given). Multiply 8 by 3 to get the area of the lower rectangle. Answer 24.

Once you've calculated both areas, add them up to find the area of the entire figure.

In the diagram, m∠3 = 120° and m∠12 = 80°. Which angle measures are correct?Check all that apply.m∠1 = 60°m∠13 = 80°m∠6 = 80°m∠5 = 60°m∠10 = 120°m∠ 14 = 100°

Answers

we are given

m∠3 = 120° and m∠12 = 80°

we will check all

Calculation of m∠1:

we can see that angles 1 and 3 are linear

so, their sum must be 180

m∠1+m∠3 = 180°

now, we can plug values

m∠1+ 120°= 180°

m∠1=60°

Calculation of m∠13:

we know that

angles 12 and 13 are alternate angles

so, they must be equal

m∠13=m∠12 = 80°

m∠13= 80°

Calculation of m∠6:

we know that

angles 3 and 6 are alternate angles

so, they must be equal

m∠3=m∠6 = 120°

m∠6= 120°

Calculation of m∠5:

we know that

angles 1 and 5 are corresponding angles

so, they must be equal

m∠1=m∠5 = 60°

m∠5= 60°

Calculation of m∠10:

we can see that angles 10 and 12 are linear

so, their sum must be 180

m∠10+m∠12 = 180°

now, we can plug values

m∠10+ 80°= 180°

m∠10=100°

Calculation of m∠14:

we know that

angles 10 and 14 are corresponding angles

so, they must be equal

m∠10=m∠14 = 100°

m∠14= 100°


Answer:

A, B, D, F

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to summarize what the previous person mentioned:

1 = 60

13 = 80

6 = 120

5 = 60

10 = 100

14 = 100

So given that information the correct answers are:

In a normal distribution, the mean is ____ it's mean and mode

Answers

In a normal distribution, the median (I think you meant to say) is equal to the mean and mode.

Final answer:

In a normal distribution, the mean, median, and mode are all the same, since it is symmetric around the mean. The standard deviation affects the shape of the distribution, and the empirical rule states that most values lie within two standard deviations of the mean. Differences in symmetry may cause the mean, median, and mode to diverge, with the mean being most affected by skewness.

Explanation:

In a normal distribution, the mean is equal to the median and mode, by definition. This is because the normal distribution, which is also known as the Gaussian distribution, is symmetrically shaped like a bell curve around the mean (μ). The mean indicates the center of the distribution and the point of symmetry, while the median divides the data such that half of the values are above it and half are below. The mode is the most frequently occurring value in the data set, and in a perfect normal distribution, it coincides with the mean and median.

The standard deviation (σ) is a measure of the spread of the distribution. If the standard deviation is increased, the curve becomes wider and flatter, while a decrease in σ makes the distribution steeper and narrower. Additionally, the location of μ on the X-axis can shift the entire graph to the left or right, but the shape of the graph remains the same. The empirical rule helps us understand that approximately 95% of values lie within two standard deviations from the mean.

Drawing from the collaborative exercise provided, by recording the heights and creating histograms with smooth bell-shaped curves, one can calculate the mean and identify how characteristics such as skewness affect the mean, median, and mode, especially in non-symmetric distributions. In these cases, the mean can be influenced by the direction of the skew more than the median, pulling it towards the tail of the distribution.

Using the data presented in the problem, you are asked to predict the probability that future customers will cancel their preorders. To find the probability, you have to divide the number of people who cancelled their preorders by the total number of people who preordered.

35 people / 140 people = .25 or 25% probability that the future customers will cancel their preorders.

(5^2 +6)–(7•4)+8

Answers

Hello!

The order of operations is PEMDAS or parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition subtraction.

So 5^2 is 25 + 6 is 31

7*4 is 28

31 - 28 = 3

and 3 + 8 is 11

Tom was right

Hope this helps!
Hey there!

Seeing that it's an order of operations problem, we can use our standard format of computing, PEMDAS. It stands for:

P- Parentheses
E- Exponents
M- Multiplication
D- Division
A- Addition
S- Subtraction

When we compute these problems, we must do it in this order. Therefore, when we do this problem, we start within the parentheses.

(5^2 +6)–(7•4)+8

Inside the parentheses, we have an exponent. Since it's second, we compute it first. 

(25 +6)–(7•4)+8

Next, we can simplify the multiplication problem in the other set of parentheses.

(25 +6)–(28)+8

Simplify first parentheses:

31 - 28 + 8

Subtract

3 + 8 = 

11

Notice how we subtracted first. That's because when we do PEMDAS, addition, and subtraction, along with multiplication and division, are on the same level- so you can do them in any order. This doesn't go for anything else though unless it's obviously commutative.

Hope this helps!

Answers

we know that 
the rule is
y=x+2
then 
for x=-3 -------------------> y=-3+2=-1
for x=-2 -------------------> y=-2+2=0
for x=-1 -------------------> y=-1+2=1
for x=0 ------------------->  y=0+2=2
for x=1 ------------------->  y=1+2=3

for x=7 -------------------> y=7+2=9

the answer is 
Input x -3 -2 -1 0 1 Output y -1 0 1 2 3
Answer: the first set of data:

Input x     -3    -2    -1    0     1
Output y   -1     0     1     2    3

Explanation:

Given functión y = x + 2

Choices:

1)
 Input x     -3    -2    -1    0     1
Output y   -1     0     1     2    3

2)

Input x      3    4    5      6      7
Output y   5    7    9    11    13

Answer:

You just have to use the sets of input values and find the output values with the given function:

The computes are very simple so you can tell the answer at first sight, because the output, y, is 2 units more than the input, x.

The first set of data fits the function because

x = -3 => y = -3 + 2 = -1
x = -2 => y = -2 + 2 = 0
x = -1 => y = -1 + 2 = 1
x = 0 => y = = 0 + 2 = 2
x = 1 => y = 1 + 2 = 3

That proves that the first set of data represents the given rule.

For the second set of data pick x = 4 => x + 2 = 6 but the correspondant y is 7, so that set does not represent the rule y = x + 2

Find the radius of the circle whose equation is 3x² + 3y² = 75.

Answers

3x² + 3y² = 75
divide everything by 3
x² + y² = 25

This is a standard equation of a circle.
Center (0,0) and radius = 5

Answer: 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the general equation of a circle having center at (h,k) and radius r is given by :-

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

Given : The equation of a circle : [tex]3x^2 + 3y^2 = 75[/tex]

Taking 3 as common from the left side of the given equation , we get

[tex]3(x^2 + y^2) = 75[/tex]

Divide 3 on both the sides , we get

[tex]x^2 + y^2 = 25[/tex]

Comparing to the general equation of circle , we get

[tex]r^2 = 25\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=5[/tex]

Hence, the radius of the circle = 5 units

Cecil Green sells golf hats. He knows that most people will not pay more than $20 for a golf hat. Cecil needs a 40% markup on cost. What should Cecil pay for his golf hats? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.) Cecil pays $

Answers

Final answer:

Cecil should pay $14.29 for his golf hats.

Explanation:

To determine what Cecil should pay for his golf hats, we need to calculate the cost price and apply the 40% markup. Let's assume the cost price is 'x'. Since Cecil needs a 40% markup on cost, the selling price will be 140% of the cost.

To find the selling price, we can use the equation: 140% of 'x' = $20. Solving this equation, we get: x = $20 / 1.4 = $14.29.

Therefore, Cecil should pay $14.29 for his golf hats.

What are the roots of the equation?

x^2+24=−11x

Enter your answers in the boxes.

Answers

The correct answers are:

x=-3 and x=-8.

Explanation:

We can first write this in standard form, ax²+bx+c=0. To do this, we will add 11x to both sides:
x²+24+11x=-11x+11x
x²+11x+24=0.

Now we can factor this. Look for factors of c, 24, that sum to b, 11. Factors of 24 are:
1 and 24 (sum 25)
2 and 12 (sum 14)
3 and 8 (sum 11)
4 and 6 (sum 10).

The factors we need are 3 and 8, since they sum to 11. This gives us factored form:
(x+3)(x+8)=0.

Using the zero product property, we know that in order to have a product of 0, one or both of the factors must be 0. This means we have:
x+3=0 or x+8=0.

Solving the first equation:
x+3-3=0-3
x=-3.

Solving the second equation:
x+8-8=0-8
x=-8.

Answer:

[tex]x_1 = -8[/tex]

[tex]x_2 = -3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

[tex]x^2+24 = -11x[/tex]

Add 11x to both sides we have;

[tex]x^2+11x+24 = 0[/tex]

Split the middle terms we have;

⇒[tex]x^2+8x+3x+24 = 0[/tex]

⇒[tex]x(x+8)+3(x+8)= 0[/tex]

⇒[tex](x+8)(x+3)= 0[/tex]

By zero product property we have;

x+8 = 0 and x+3= 0

⇒x = -8 and x = -3

Therefore, the roots of the given equations are:

[tex]x_1 = -8[/tex]

[tex]x_2 = -3[/tex]

What is the length of one leg of the triangle

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The length measure of the second leg of the right-angle triangle is 12 units.

What is the measure of the missing leg length of the triangle?

Given the parameter:

Hypotenuse = 15 units

Length of leg1 = 9 units

Length of leg2 = x

To determine the measure of the missing side length of the right triangle, we use the Pythagoras theorem.

It is expressed as:

( hypotenuse )² =  ( leg 1 )² + ( leg 2 )²

Plug in the given values:

( 15 )² =  ( 9 )² + ( leg 2 )²

Simplifying, we get:

225 = 81 + ( leg 2 )²

( leg 2 )² = 225 - 81

( leg 2 )² = 144

Take the square roots:

leg 2 = √144

leg 2 = 12 units

Therefore, the second leg measures 12 units.
