A mountain climber records her altitude and the surrounding temperature at various points as she ascends a mountain. She then plots the points on a scatter plot and draws a line of best fit. The equation of the line is y=−3.6x+59 , where x is the altitude in thousands of feet and y is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (°F). What does the slope of the equation represent in this scenario?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a straight line formula is represented as y = mx + c, where m is the gradient or slope of the line and c is called the intercept on the y-axis.

The equation of the line in the question above is y= −3.6x + 59 ,

Therefore comparing both equations together,

y = mx + c = y = −3.6x + 59

m = -3.6

Therefore, the slope of the equation represent in this scenario is -3.6

Sara missed 7 of 184 school days this year. Approximately what percent of school days was Sara present?
A. 4%
B. 96%
C. 177%
D. 7%​

Answers

Answer:

B. 96%

Step-by-step explanation:

Sara only missed 7 days of 184 days this year meaning 184 - 7 = 177 and

177 is how many days she attended school, so to figure out percentage take the number of days she attended school and divide by the total amount of days in this year which is 184: 177/184 = 0.96195652173

then multiply by 100 to get percentage so approximately 96%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Karen performed a transformation of (C) counterclockwise rotation of 90 degrees about origin

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.

If a point A(x, y) is rotated 90° counterclockwise about the origin, the new point is at A'(-y, x).

Parallelogram ABCD has vertices at A(-4,-1) , B (-7,-6) , C (-14, -6) , D(-11, -1), if it is rotated 90° counterclockwise about the origin, the new point would be at A'(1.-4) , B'(6.-7),  C'(6.-14) , D'(1.-11)

What is arithmetic Progression?

The difference between every two subsequent words in a sequence is the same; this is known as an arithmetic progression (AP). An equation for the previous block of the AP may be derived from this kind of development. For instance, the sequence 2, 6, 10, 14,... is a mathematical progression (AP) because it fits a pattern where every other number is acquired by adding 4 to the respective period.

The given data is,

-10, 20, -40

From -10 to 20 it is multiplied by 2 with a positive sign, and from 20 to -40 it is multiplied by 2 with a negative sign. Similarly, the next two numbers are 80 and -160.

Answer:

The arc length s = 44 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

r = 4 in

Ф = 11 radians

We need to find s

The formula used is: [tex]s=r\theta[/tex]

where s represents arc length, r is radius and Ф is angle in radians

Putting values and finding s

[tex]s=r\theta[/tex]

Put r = 4 and Ф = 11

[tex]s=4\times 11\\s=44[/tex]

Mrs. aviles is planning a fruit-cup party for a class of 18 students and two teachers. She spends $10 for a package of snacks and also takes orders in advance for fruit cups that cost $3 each.

1. describe the domain of the function both in words and numbers?
2. what is the range?

Answers

Answer:

domain is x = 3

Thus domain means that for every fruit cup costs $3

Range is f(20) = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Total students for the fruit cup party = 18

Total teachers for the fruit cup party = 2

Cost of each fruit cup =$ 3

Delivery charge = $ 10

Now, the total number of people attending the party = Total number of students + Total number of teachers

Thus;

Total number of people attending party = 18 + 2 = 20

Since cost of each fruit cup is $3.

Thus, for 20 fruit cups, the function is;

f(x) = 20x where x is cost of each fruit cup.

It means the cost of 20 fruit cups = $3 × 20 = $60

Thus, domain is x = 3

Thus domain means that for every fruit cup costs $3

Range is f(20) = 60

Answers

Answer:

Total boxes= 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

A baseball bat factory produces 24,000 bats per day and uses 50 boxes for packing the bats.

First, we need to determine the number of bats that fits into a box:

Bats per box= 24,000 / 50

Barts per box= 480

Now, the number of boxes for 36,000 bats:

Total boxes= total bats / bats per box

Total boxes= 36,000/480

Total boxes= 75

Answer:75

Step-by-step explanation:

Bats 24000/50

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is a group of sequentially ordered numbers a and b expressed as a/b, where b is never equal to zero. When two objects are equal, a statement is said to be proportional.

There are 10 seniors and 15 juniors in a gym class.

The total number of students will be given as,

Total students = 10 + 15

Total students = 25

Then the ratio of seniors to total students will be given as,

Ratio = Seniors / Total student

Ratio = 10 / 25

Ratio = 2 / 5

The ratio of seniors to total students will be 2: 5.

y = 2 for x < 0

     x for 0 ≤ x < 3

     3 for x ≥ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph attached,

Equation of line (1),

y = 2

Where x < 0

Let the equation of line (2) is,

y = mx + b

y-intercept 'b' = 0 [line (2) passes through origin]

Slope of the line 'm' = [tex]\frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}}[/tex]

                                 = [tex]\frac{3}{3}[/tex]

                                 = 1

Therefore, equation of line (2) will be,

y = x

where 0 ≤ x < 3

Equation of line (3) will be,

y = 3

Where x ≥ 3

Therefore, piecewise linear function will be,

y = 2 for x < 0

     x for 0 ≤ x < 3

     3 for x ≥ 3
