Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a tree is 3 ft tall when planted and grows at 3/4 ft per year, you want to identify the point-slope equation that does NOT fit this description, and you want two (2) more point-slope equations that DO fit this description.

The point-slope equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) is ...

  y -k = m(x -h)

The point representing the initial height of the tree is (x, y) = (years, feet) = (0, 3). If the rate of growth is 3/4 ft per year, then the equation can be written ...

  y -3 = 3/4(x -0) . . . . . . . . . matches choice (a)

All of the given equations have m = 3/4, so to find the incorrect equation, we need to find the point that is not on the line described by the above equation. We can do this by identifying the point (h, k) in each equation.

The attachment shows the point values used in each of the other equations (b) through (e). We find they all fall on the line except the point (15, 15) used in equation (e).

The incorrect equation is equation (e) y -15 = 3/4(x -15).

We can write additional equations by finding additional points that are on the line. For the purpose, it is convenient to choose x-values that are multiples of 4. Already, equations use x = 0, 4, 12, 15. We can choose x=8 and x=16 for the equations we write. The graph shows the corresponding y-values are 9 and 15, respectively. Then two additional equations could be ...

  y -9 = 3/4(x -8)

  y -15 = 3/4(x -16)

__

Additional comment

There are several ways to find the equation that doesn't belong. Another way, apart from plotting the points on a graph, is to rewrite each equation into the same form. Slope-intercept form is fairly convenient for this.

(a) y -3 = 3/4(x -0)   ⇒   y = 3/4x +3

(d) y -12 = 3/4(x -12)   ⇒   y = 3/4x -9 +12 = 3/4x +3

(e) y -15 = 3/4(x -15)   ⇒   y = 3/4x -11.25 +15 = 3/4x +3.75 (incorrect)

You can see that 3/4x (and y) will be an integer only if x is a multiple of 4. We like integers, so it is convenient to choose x as a multiple of 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you split them they all are worth zero which is nothing

The number that should be added to the polynomial 2x³ - 3x² - 8x is 12x

When a polynomial is divided by a linear factor, the remainder is equal to the constant term of the polynomial multiplied by the reciprocal of the linear factor.

In this case, the polynomial is 2x³ - 3x² - 8x, and the linear factor is 2x-1.

To find the remainder when this polynomial is divided by 2x-1, we need to multiply the constant term of the polynomial, which is -8, by the reciprocal of 2x-1, which is 1/(2x-1).

So the remainder should be -8*(1/(2x-1)) = -8/(2x-1) = -4/(x-0.5)

To make the remainder 12, we will add 12x to the polynomial so that the new constant term is 12.

The polynomial 2x³ - 3x² - 8x + 12x will have a remainder of 12 when divided by 2x-1.

Answer: The scale factor is a ratio that compares the dimensions of an object to a copy of that object. To find the scale factor from the original picture to the copy, you can divide the length of the copy by the length of the original.

In this case, the length of the original picture is 8 feet and the length of the copy is 1/2 a foot.

So the scale factor is:

1/2 a foot / 8 feet = 1/16

This means that the copy is 1/16 the size of the original. This means that, for each inch or foot on the original, the same length on the copy is 1/16 of that length.

It's also common to express scale factor as a ratio or a fraction of the original, which in this case is 1/16

It's worth mentioning that you could use this same method to find the scale factor for any other dimension of the picture, such as width, height and so on.

Let's start by using the provided information to formulate an equation.

Kelly starts with $800 in her savings account, so this is the initial amount. She makes $340 per week, 15% of which is invested into her savings account for 8 weeks, so this information will form a rate. Kelly also withdrew (subtracted) 45 dollars 3 times. Now, let's form the equation.

y=8(.15·340)+800-45(3), where y=remaining balance after 8 weeks. Now, lets simplify the equation using Orders of Operations.

Simplify parenthesis first:

y=8(.15·340)+800-45(3)

y=8(51)+800-45(3)

Complete any multiplication:

y=8(51)+800-45(3)

y=408+800-135

Add and subtract from left to right; addition and subtraction are not separate steps and must be done in the same step, so we work left to right as to whichever comes first:

y=408+800-135

y=1208-135

y=1,073

Remember that y is the remaining balance after 8 weeks. This means that $1,073 dollars is the balance after 8 weeks.

Hope that helps, and feel free to give Brainliest!

The account balance at the end of 8 weeks is $1073.

A percentage is a value per hundredth. Percentages can be converted into decimals and fractions by dividing the percentage value by a hundred.

Given, Kelly has a savings account with a beginning balance of $800 and she earns $340 per week.

Therefore, 15% of her weekly earnings for 8 weeks is,

= (15/100)×340×8.

= $408.

Again, She made $45 withdrawals 3 times, which is,

= 3×45.

= $135.

Therefore, The final amount in her account after 8 weeks is,

= $(800 + 408 - 135).

= $1073.

The estimated IQR for the males dataset is 24 , the estimated difference between median value of each dataset is 14.

What is median ?

The median is the value separating the higher half from the lower half of a data sample, a population, or a probability distribution in statistics and probability theory. It can be regarded as "the middle" value for a set of data.

When a dataset is ordered, the median value is the one that appears exactly in the middle of the dataset. Depending on whether you have an odd or an even number of data points, there are different processes to take when calculating the median.

In a collection of numbers, the median is the value in the middle. A series of numbers must first be sorted, or arranged, in value order from lowest to highest or highest to lowest in order to find the median value.

A. IQR  for male dataset

The IQR is calculated as follows:

IQR = Q3 - Q1

      =

For the male's data:

IQR = Q3 - Q1

      = 25 - 1

      = 24

Hence, the IQR of the male dataset is 24.

B. Difference in median values

We have:

median = 20 ----- Male dataset                                                    

median = 6  ----- Female dataset

So, the difference (d) is:

d = 20 - 6

  = 14

Hence, the difference in median of both dataset is 14.

C. Best measure of center

The female box plot has an outlier. This means that the measure of center to use for the female dataset is the median.

The male box plot has no outlier; this means that the mean can be used as a measure of center for the male box plot

D. Reason for outlier

There are several reasons that could cause an outlier in a dataset. One of the reasons is human error during data entry.
