A. As rainfall increases, so does the water level in the river.
B. The hotter the temperature, the faster ice will melt.
C. As the number of people with vision loss increases, the sale of hearing aids increases.
D. The fewer mistakes a student makes on a math test, the better their grade is on the math test.
a

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by analyzing if the event causes the result. If it does not, then there is correlation but not necessarily causation

A. Event: Rainfall. Result: Water level rises

Does rainfall cause an increase in water level? Yes, so this is incorrect

B. Event: Temperature increase. Result: Ice melting

Does an increase in temperature cause ice to melt faster? Yes, so this is incorrect

C. Event: More people have vision loss. Result: Hearing aids sales increase

Does more people having vision loss cause hearing aids sales to increase? No, vision loss does not cause a need for hearing aids -- hearing loss would, but vision loss does not. This is correct

D. Event: A student makes fewer mistakes. Result: A better grade

Do fewer mistakes cause better grades? Yes, so this is incorrect

What is the value of x in the polygon below?

Answers

Answer:

x=141

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of all the angles in a septagon (7 sided shape) add up to 900°. The current sum of the known angles 131°+122°+125°+148°+107°+126°=759°.

900° total sum minus known sum 759° equals 141°.

thirty tickets were sold for a concert, some at 60 cent and the rest is at $1. If the total was raised to $22, how many had the cheaper tickets.

Answers

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we can use a system of linear equations. The 2 equations should represent- 1) the number of total tickets sold and 2) the total amount raised. So, the two equations look like this (in this situation, let x stand for the cheaper tickets and y for the more expensive ones).

x+y=300.6x+1y=22

Then, there are multiple ways to solve this including graphing, elimination, and substitution. In my opinion, substitution is the best for this situation.

Firstly, isolate the y variable in the first equation

y=30-x

Next, plug in this value for y in the second equation

0.6x+(30-x)=22

Then, solve this equation algebraically

x=20

Since x stands for the cheaper tickets, we know that 20 people bought the cheaper tickets.

How many inflection point(s) do you see ?

Answers

Answer:

  7

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a point of inflection at each point where the graph crosses the line y=2. There are 7 points of inflection shown.

__

A point of inflection is where the graph changes from being concave downward to concave upward, or vice versa. For a sine function, that is everywhere the function crosses its midline.

Answer:

7 inflection points

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function [tex]f(x)=sinx+2[/tex] has a midline of y=2 where each point of the function that intersects the line is an inflection point. Inflection points are where the concavity changes, defined by when the second derivative is equal to 0 or undefined.

[tex]f(x)=sin(x)+2[/tex]

[tex]f'(x)=cos(x)[/tex]

[tex]f''(x)=-sin(x)[/tex]

[tex]0=-sin(x)[/tex]

[tex]x=\pi n[/tex] for any integer [tex]n[/tex]

From [tex][-10,10][/tex], there are 7 inflection points, which are[tex]x=-3\pi,-2\pi,-\pi,0,\pi,2\pi,3\pi[/tex]

45 + 30 = 100 - w
Answer correctly luvs

Answers

Answer:

the answer is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

45+30=100-w

then your going to subtract 45 on both sides. So 100-45 is 55.

so now your equation looks like this

30 = 55 - w

subtract 55 on both sides so you will have -25 = -w. Then your going to divide -w on both sides and you will have positive 25

Peter has 100$. The price of a watch is 60$. If Peter gets 25% discount,can he buy 2 watches?

Answers

yes.

25 percent discount means that the price of one watch is 45 dollars.

45 plus 45 is less than 100.

Answer:

The answer is yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

25% = divide by 4

25% of 60$ = 60$ divided by 4 = 25$

So then we need to do 60$ - 25$ which equals to 45$.

45$ + 45$ = $90.

Find the 75th term of the arithmetic sequence
16, 15, 14,

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a_{75}=-58[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

where d is the common difference and n is the index of any given term.

For the given sequence, the common difference is -1:

[tex]15-16=-1\\14-15=-1[/tex]

Knowing both the common difference and the first term, you can write the equation for this sequence:

[tex]a_n=16+(n-1)(-1)[/tex]

Then you can use that equation to find the 75th term:

[tex]a_{75}=16+(75-1)(-1)\\a_{75}=16+(74)(-1)\\a_{75}=16-74\\a_{75}=-58[/tex]

Answers

Solution:

iv) Given equation: [tex]x^{2} - y^{2} - 4x - 2y + 3[/tex]

Since we are given two variables, we need to split the original expression into two quadratic expressions as

[tex]x^{2} - 4x + 4 - y^{2} - 2y - 1[/tex]

Factoring x first:

[tex]x^{2} - 4x + 4 =[/tex] [tex]x^{2} - 2x - 2x + 4[/tex]

= [tex]x (x - 2) - 2 (x-2)[/tex]

= [tex](x-2)(x-2)[/tex]

[tex]= (x-2)^{2}[/tex]

Factoring y now:

[tex]-y^{2} - 2y - 1 = -1(y^{2} + 2y + 1)[/tex]

= [tex]-1(y^{2} + y + y + 1)[/tex]

= [tex]-1[ y(y+1) + 1(y+1)][/tex]

= [tex]-1 [(y+1)(y+1)][/tex]

= [tex](y+1)(-y-1)[/tex]

Therefore, the original expression becomes

[tex]9\frac{57}{63}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to turn them into improper fractions:

[tex]2\frac{4}{7}[/tex] + [tex]7\frac{3}{9}[/tex]

7 x 2 + 4

7 x 9 + 3

[tex]\frac{18}{7}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{66}{9}[/tex]

Next, we need to find a common multiple of both 7 and 9

7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63

9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63

So the denomonator turns into 63.

We've multiplied the denomonater 9 times for the first fraction and 7 times for the second fraction, we therefore have to do the same to the numerator.

18 x 9 = 162

66 x 7 = 462

[tex]\frac{162}{63}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{462}{63}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{624}{63}[/tex]

Next, we have to turn it back into a mixed number.

To work it out: 624 / 63 = 9 (1 s.f) <--- Mixed number.

9 x 63 = 567

624 - 567 = 57 (Working out the remainder.)

Combining them, the answer is therefore [tex]9\frac{57}{63}[/tex]

Answers

The image of the regular hexagon coincides with the pre-image 6 times during rotation.

A regular hexagon is a polygon that has six equal sides and six equal angles.

In a single rotation which is usually the rotation of an object at 360°, the number of times in which the regular hexagon coincides with its pre-image is 6 times, this is because it has 6 equal sides and 6 equal angles.

If AB is parallel to CD and the slope of AB is -3, what is the slope of CD

Answers

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of parallel lines are equal.

If two lines are parallel (that means they are at the same angle, they are always the same distance apart and they never cross), then they have the same slope. Both lines have slope -3

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a rule in math that if two slopes are parallel, they must have the same slope. Let's answer the question with this first.

So AB is parallel to CD, meaning they must have the same slope. If AB's slope is -3, then so must CD's. That's the answer to the question.

Coming back to the parallel slope rule, why does this work? Well, if two lines are parallel, it means they never will touch each other, meaning they rise, fall, bend, curve, etc... at the same rate. The slope is the change in how much the line rises divided by the change in how much it runs (moves horizontally). That proves the rule.

Read this excerpt from a passage. Robots have been around longer than many people realize. Archytas, who lived in Greece over 2,300 years ago, is believed to have created the first robot. Archytas built a steam-powered mechanical bird that was able to flap its wings and fly over 200 yards. However, it was not until the late 1700s, with the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, that the world saw the large-scale use of more complex machines. Mechanization took another leap during the 1930s, when machines were introduced into many workplaces in order to increase productivity. Instead of hiring workers to perform tasks on an assembly line, factory owners used automated machines that could do the work of several people. Then, in 1954, George Devol created the Unimate, a robotic arm. The Unimate began working on the assembly line at General Motors in 1961, taking on unpleasant, dangerous, and repetitive tasks. This robotic worker had many advantages over human workers. The Unimate did not require a salary, followed company rules, and never called in sick (although it did require the occasional repair). In addition, the Unimate could work twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Manufacturers that used the Unimate and other industrial robots saw a marked increase in productivity and a decrease in labor costs.What features show this is an example of historical writing? a.
