Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps :) have a nice day :) :)
Remark
The key step is just to subtract 5 from both sides. The pointed of the inequality still points away from the variable and towards the number. As long as that remains true, the correct answer can be found.
Solution
2.7 ≤ b + 5 Subtract 5 from both sides.
2.7 - 5 ≤ b
- 2.3 ≤ b Write with the variable on the left.
b ≥ - 2.3 <<<< answer
Assume that the rule connecting height of the candle to time is a linear one. If you do, then we have to find the equation of this line, and then use this equation to predict the height of the candle after 11 hours.
Two points on this line are (6,17.4) and (23, 7.2). The slope is thus
7.2-17.4 -6
m = --------------- = ----------- or -3/5.
23-6 10
Find the equation of the line. I'm going to use the slope-intercept formula:
y = mx + b => 7.2 = (-3/5)(23) + b. Solving for b, b = 21.
Now we know that y = (-3/5)x + 21
Let x=11 to predict the height of the candle at that time.
y = (-3/5)(11) + 21 = 14.4 inches (answer)
Answer:
Avicenna can expect to lose money from offering these policies. In the long run, they should expect to lose ___33__ dollars on each policy sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
The amount the company Avicenna must pay to the shareholder if the person die before 70 years = $ 26,500
The value of each policy = $497
It is given that there is a 2% chance that people will die before 70 years and 98% chance that people will live till the age 70.
The expected policy to be sold= policy nominal + chances of death
= 497 + [98% (no pay) + 2% (pay)]
= 497 + [98%(0) + 2%(-26500)]
(The negative sign shows that money goes out of the company)
= 497 - 2% (26500)
= 497 - 530
=33
Therefore the company loses 33 dollar on each policy sold in the long run.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The options in the question and the number line are shown in the image attached.
From the options, it is clear that the difference between the temperatures at 7:00 a.M. and 1:00 p.M is;
Temperature at 7:00 a.M - Temperature at 1:00 p.M
We can see from the number line that the temperature at 7:00 a.M = -4
Temperature at 1:00 p.M = 16
difference between the two temperatures = ∣(-4) - 16∣ = 20
