Answer:
no matter what value you substitute for x, the absolute value will force the result to be a positive number and any positive number is greater than -12
If there are 4 dogs and they each eat 2 pounds of food each day. Then, all together there are 8 pounds of food getting eaten each day. You will want to divide 456 by 8.
456/8= 57 days.
456 punds of dog food will last 57 days for 4 dogs.
You must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Two payment options to rent a car
Let "x" be the number of miles driven in one day
<em><u>You can pay $20 a day plus 25¢ a mile (Option A)</u></em>
25 cents is equal to 0.25 dollars
OPTION A : 20 + 0.25x
<em><u>You pay $10 a day plus 50¢ a mile (Option B)</u></em>
50 cents equal to 0.50 dollars
Option B: 10 + 0.50x
<em><u>For what amount of daily miles will option A be the cheaper plan ?</u></em>
For option A to be cheaper, Option A must be less than option B
Option A < Option B
Solve the inequality
Add -0.50x on both sides
Add - 20 on both sides,
Divide both sides by 0.25
Thus you must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:did u ever find the answer
Answer:
a) response variable
Step-by-step explanation:
The response variable is the variable that depends on other variables such as the independent or explanatory variable, it is the variable that is being tested. The response variable is also called the dependent variable.
In linear regression, the y variable is referred to as the response variable while the x variable is referred to as the explanatory or independent variable.
In this case the y variable is "the number of times they cough in a day" and this variation depends on the x variable "number of cigarettes a person smokes in a day".
