Answer:
7x - 8y = 37
Explanation:
y+2 = ⅞(x-3) (distribute ⅞ -- x times 7/8, -3 times 7/8)
y+2 = ⅞x - 21/8 (subtract ⅞x from both sides)
y+2-⅞x = -21/8 (subtract 2 from both sides)
y-⅞x = -37/8 <--- result of -21/8 - 2
Multiply both sides by 8 to get ride of fractions
8y - 7x = -37 (rearrange)
-7x + 8y = -37
It's better to have a positive coefficient for x if you can. So multiply both sides by -1. That just means changing the sign of every term on both sides, you get
7x - 8y = 37
True. Because if you multiply 440 by 10, the answer is 4,400. So 4,400 is 10 times as much as 440.
To each number multiplied by 10, the answer is the same number with an additional zero to the right.
Hope this Helps! :)
Answer:
6.875° C
the mean of a set of data is calculated using
mean =
For the first 7 days the mean is 8 and the count = 7
8 = ( cross- multiply )
sum = 8 × 7 = 56
Add on the temperature on the 8 th day to the sum and divide by 8 for mean
sum = 56 - 1 = 55
mean = = 6.875° C
2nd question
Height of marble from the ground
An independent variable is the variable in an experiment that you change to see if it has an effect on the dependent variable. In this case, Jack wanted to see whether the position of the marble on the ramp (which would be the height) has an effect on the kinetic and potential energy of the marble, then the height would be the independent because it is what is being changed.
The dependent would be the kinetic and potential energy and the constant would be the type of marble.
