The scatterplot to the left shows the cost, C, in thousands of dollars, and living space, z, in square feet (ft) for several houses in a certain neighborhood. According to the data, which of the following best approximates the cost for an additional square foot of living space for homes in this neighborhood?​

Answers

Answer 1

The best approximation of the cost for an additional square foot of living space for homes in this neighborhood is a decrease of $0.125 thousand, or $125, for every one additional square foot of living space.

Since we are looking for an approximation of the cost for an additional square foot of living space, we need to find the slope of the line of best fit for the given scatterplot. The slope of the line represents the change in the cost of the house for every one unit increase in the living space, which in this case is one square foot.

From the scatterplot, we can see that as the living space increases, the cost of the house also increases, indicating a positive linear relationship. We can also see that there is a line of best fit that closely approximates this relationship.

To find the slope of the line of best fit, we can choose any two points on the line and calculate the change in the y-coordinate (the cost) divided by the change in the x-coordinate (the living space). One way to do this is to choose the two points where the line intersects the y-axis and the x-axis. From the scatterplot, we can estimate these points to be approximately (0, 200) and (1600, 0), respectively.

Using these two points, the slope of the line of best fit is:

slope = (change in y) / (change in x)

slope = (200 - 0) / (0 - 1600)

slope = -0.125

Therefore, the best approximation of the cost for an additional square foot of living space for homes in this neighborhood is a decrease of $0.125 thousand, or $125, for every one additional square foot of living space.

15 = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] (x + 12)

Answers

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

15 = 5/3 (x + 12)

Multiply each side by 3/5 to clear the fraction

3/5 *15 =3/5 *5/3  (x + 12)

9 = x+12

Subtract 12 from each side

9-12 = x+12-12

-3 =x

Answer:

15 = 5/3(x + 12)

Using distributive law

15 = 5x/3 + 20

15 = 5x + 60/3

15 × 3 = 5x + 60

45 = 5x + 60

45 - 60 = 5x

-15 = 5x

Answer:

Problem(1):     [tex]21[/tex]

Problem(2):     Side length = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]    Area = [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex]

Problem(3):     Boys = [tex]320[/tex]     Girls = [tex]240[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(Notes steps are cut from this answer so that it isn't too long)

1. Problem (1)

One is given the following information:

[tex]x+\frac{1}{x}=5[/tex][tex](x-\frac{1}{x})^2[/tex]

The most logical first step is to solve for the value of (x). One can solve for the numerical value of (x) with the first equation.

[tex]x+\frac{1}{x}=5[/tex]

Multiply the entire equation by (x),

[tex]x^2+1=5x[/tex]

Inverse operations put the equation in the general format of a quadratic equation. The general format of a quadratic equation is as follows,

[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

Put the given equation in this format,

[tex]x^2-5x+1=0[/tex]

Now use the quadratic formula to solve for the value of (x). The quadratic formula uses the coefficients of the terms in a quadratic equation to find the roots of the equation. The quadratic formula is as follows,

[tex]\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Use the coefficients of the terms in the given quadratic equation in the formal, then simplify to solve for solutions of the given equation,

[tex]\frac{-(-5)(+-)\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(1)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]\frac{-(-5)(+-)\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(1)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5(+-)\sqrt{21}}{2}[/tex]

Now substitute these values into the equation and simplify, even though there are two values of (x), there will only be one solution,

[tex]((\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{2}-\frac{1}{\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{2}})^2[/tex]                                      [tex]((\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{2}-\frac{1}{\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{2}})^2[/tex]  

[tex](\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{2}-\frac{2}{5+\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]                                      [tex](\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{2}-\frac{2}{5-\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]

Convert to a common denominator,

[tex](\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{2}*\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{5+\sqrt{21}}-\frac{2}{5+\sqrt{21}}*\frac{2}{2})^2[/tex]                   [tex](\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{2}*\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{5-\sqrt{21}}-\frac{2}{5-\sqrt{21}}*\frac{2}{2})^2[/tex]

[tex](\frac{(5+\sqrt{21})^2-4}{2(5+\sqrt{21})})^2[/tex]                                           [tex](\frac{(5-\sqrt{21})^2-4}{2(5-\sqrt{21})})^2[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex](\frac{25+10\sqrt{21}+21-4}{10+2\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]                                     [tex](\frac{25-10\sqrt{21}+21-4}{10-2\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]

[tex](\frac{42+10\sqrt{21}}{10+2\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]                                              [tex](\frac{42-10\sqrt{21}}{10-2\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1764+840\sqrt{21}+2100}{100+40\sqrt{21}+84}[/tex]                                      [tex]\frac{1764-840\sqrt{21}+2100}{100-40\sqrt{21}+84}[/tex]

[tex]21[/tex]                                                            

2. Problem (2)

All four sides of a square are congruent (have the same measure), thus dividing the perimeter of a square by (4) will yield the side length of the square,

[tex]Perimeter\ of\ the\ square: 4\\Side\ length: \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

The area is the two-dimensional space that a figure takes up, in the case of a square, the area is the side length times itself:

[tex]A=(\frac{1}{4})^2=\frac{1}{16}[/tex]

3. Problem (3)

Let (x) represent the amount by which the ratio of boys to girls was scaled down. Assuming that these are the only two genders in the school, one can state that the sum ratio coefficients times the scaling value for both boys and girls, will equal the total number of people in the school. Thus, one can form the following equation and solve it with inverse operations and simplification,

[tex]boys + girl = total\ students\\4x + 3x = 560\\7x = 560\\x = 80[/tex]

Now substitute this into the expression for the two genders in this scenario, respectively, to solve for the actual number of students of that gender,

Boys,                         Girls,

[tex]4(x)[/tex]                             [tex]3(x)[/tex]

[tex]4(80)[/tex]                           [tex]3(80)[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(5x-4)=10x-8

-3(3x-1)=-9x+3

10x-8-9x+3

x=-5

The answer you are looking for is -5.

Writing out the equation,

2(5x-4)-x-3(3x-1)

Using the Distributive Property for 2(5x-4) and -3(3x-1),

10x-8-x-9x+3

Using the Associative Property,

10x-x-9x-8+3

Simplifying the similar terms,

9x-9x-8+3

Canceling both "9x" terms, since 9x-9x is obviously 0,

0-8+3, or simply just -8+3.

-8+3=-5

So, therefore the final answer is -5.

I hope that this has helped you. Enjoy your day, and take care.

It is given that the gradient of a straight line which passes through M(h,3) and N(-2,-9) is 2, calculate the value of h.​

Answers

Answer:

h = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula and equate to 2

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = M (h, 3 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) =  N (- 2, - 9 )

m = [tex]\frac{-9-3}{-2-h}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-12}{-2-h}[/tex] , then

[tex]\frac{-12}{-2-h}[/tex] = 2 ( multiply both sides by - 2 - h )

2(- 2 - h) = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

- 2 - h = - 6 ( add 2 to both sides )

- h = - 4 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

h = 4
