HiThe scatter plot shows a hiker's elevation above sea level during a hike from the base to the
top of a mountain. The equation of a trend line for the hiker's elevation is y = 7.96x +676, where x
represents the number of minutes and y represents the hiker's elevation in feet. Use the equation of
the trend line to estimate the hiker's elevation after 170 minutes.
Answer:
2029.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
If x represents the number of minutes, then all you have to do is plug in 170 ( the number of minutes ) into the equation.
y = 7.96 (170) + 676
y = 1353.2 + 676
y = 2029.2
y represents the hiker's elevation in feet, so the answer would be 2029.2 ft.

What is an equation of the line how to graph the equation?
An equation is an expression between two variables With an equality sign. Usually an equation of the line can be given as y= mx + c, Where x is independent and y is dependent and c is y-intercept. as the value of x changes the value of y also changes.
We are given an equation y-12 = 4(x-(-3))
We first simplify the equation
we get y -12 = 4(x+3)
Multiplying 4 inside the bracket we get,
y-12= 4x+12
Adding 12 on both sides to get slope intercept form.
y=4x+24
The slope of the line is 4 and y-intercept is 24.

There can be no more than 100 people in the movie theater. There are already 22 people in the movie theater.What inequality represents the number of additional people, p, that can enter the movie theater?Drag and drop the appropriate symbols to correctly complete the inequality.
Answer:
[tex]p\text{ + 22}\leq\text{ 100}[/tex]Explanation:
Here, we want to drop the appropriate symbols
When we add the given number 22 to p, it would give a number which is at most 100
That means the number must be less than or equal to 100

Step-by-step explanation:
using the recursive rule
[tex]t_{n}[/tex] = 3 [tex]t_{n-1}[/tex] with t₁ = 1 , then
t₂ = 3 × t₁ = 3 × 1 = 3
t₃ = 3 × t₂ = 3 × 3 = 9

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (8, -4) and is parrallel to the line 6x + 2y = 9
The equation of a line that passes through the point (8, -4) and is parallel to the line 6x + 2y = 9 is 3x+y-20=0.
6x + 2y - 9 = 0
2y = -6x + 9
divide by 2 on both sides
y = -3x + 9/2
slope m = -3 and c = 9/2.
Line equation through point(8, -4) is y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y - (-4) = -3(x-8)
y+4=-3x+24
3x+y-20=0.
Therefore the equation of a line that passes through the point (8, -4) and is parallel to the line 6x + 2y = 9 is 3x+y-20=0.

(Select all appropriate answers.)Given to Step 1: Lin calculated 4 - 17 incorrectly; should be -13.Step 1 to Step 2: Lin distributed 8(x - 3) incorrectly; should be 8x - 3.Step 2 to Step 3: Lin calculated 8x - 24 + 7 incorrectly; should be 8x - 31.Step 3 to Step 4: Lin should have subtracted 8x from each side; should be 18x.What should Lin's answer have been ?8 ( x - 3 ) + 7 = 2x ( 4 - 17 )answer choices :x = 3/2 x = 1/2x = 1/5x = 1/3
Answer:
Given to Step 1: Lin calculated 4 - 17 incorrectly; should be -13.
Step 3 to Step 4: Lin should have subtracted 8x from each side; should be 18x.
Lin's answer should be x = 1/2
Explanation:
The initial expression is:
8(x - 3) + 7 = 2x(4 - 17)
So, the first error is in step 1, because 4 - 17 = - 13, then step 1 should be:
8(x - 3) + 7 = 2x(-13)
Then, we can apply the distributive property as:
8x - 8(3) + 7 = -26x
8x - 24 + 7 = -26x
We need to add similar terms:
8x - 17 = - 26x
Then, we can subtract 8x from both sides as follows:
8x - 17 - 8x = - 26x - 8x
-17 = -34x
Finally, we can divide by -34 as follows:
-17/(-34) = -34x/(-34)
1/2 = x
Therefore, the answers are:
Given to Step 1: Lin calculated 4 - 17 incorrectly; should be -13.
Step 3 to Step 4: Lin should have subtracted 8x from each side; should be 18x.
Lin's answer should be x = 1/2

We must describe the local and end behaviour of the function:
[tex]f(x)=\frac{x^2-4x+3}{x^2-4x-5}.[/tex]First, we rewrite the polynomials in numerator and denominator in terms of their roots:
[tex]f(x)=\frac{(x-1)\cdot(x-3)}{(x+1)\cdot\mleft(x-5\mright)}\text{.}[/tex]Local behaviour
We see that f(x) has a zero in the denominator for x = -1 and x = 5. The function f(x) has vertical asymptotes at these values. To analyze the local behaviour, we must compute the lateral limits for x → -1 and x → 5.
Limit x → - 1 from the left
Computing the limit from the left when x → -1, is equivalent to replacing x by -1 - ε and computing the limit when ε → 0:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \lim _{x\rightarrow-1^-}f(x)=\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}f(-1-\epsilon) \\ =\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}\frac{(-1-\epsilon-1)\cdot(1-\epsilon-3)}{(-1-\epsilon+1)\cdot(-1-\epsilon-5)} \\ =\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}\frac{(-2)\cdot(-2)}{(-\epsilon)\cdot(-6)}\rightarrow+\infty. \end{gathered}[/tex]In the last step, we can't throw the ε in the parenthesis different to zero.
Limit x → - 1 from the right
Computing the limit from the left when x → -1, is equivalent to replacing x by -1 + ε and computing the limit when ε → 0:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \lim _{x\rightarrow-1^+}f(x)=\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}f(-1+\epsilon) \\ =\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}\frac{(-1+\epsilon-1)\cdot(1+\epsilon-3)}{(-1+\epsilon+1)\cdot(-1+\epsilon-5)} \\ =\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}\frac{(-2)\cdot(-2)}{(+\epsilon)\cdot(-6)}\rightarrow-\infty. \end{gathered}[/tex]In the last step, we can't throw the ε in the parenthesis different to zero.
Limit x → 5 from the left
Computing the limit from the left when x → 5, is equivalent to replacing x by 5 - ε and computing the limit when ε → 0:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \lim _{x\rightarrow-1^-}f(x)=\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}f(-1-\epsilon) \\ =\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}\frac{(5-\epsilon-1)\cdot(5-\epsilon-3)}{(5-\epsilon+1)\cdot(5-\epsilon-5)} \\ =\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}\frac{(+4)\cdot(+2)}{(+4)\cdot(-\epsilon)}\rightarrow-\infty. \end{gathered}[/tex]In the last step, we can't throw the ε in the parenthesis different to zero.
Limit x → 5 from the right
Computing the limit from the left when x → 5, is equivalent to replacing x by 5 + ε and computing the limit when ε → 0:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \lim _{x\rightarrow-1^-}f(x)=\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}f(-1-\epsilon) \\ =\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}\frac{(5+\epsilon-1)\cdot(5+\epsilon-3)}{(5+\epsilon+1)\cdot(5+\epsilon-5)} \\ =\lim _{\epsilon\rightarrow0}\frac{(+4)\cdot(+2)}{(+4)\cdot(+\epsilon)}\rightarrow+\infty. \end{gathered}[/tex]In the last step, we can't throw the ε in the parenthesis different to zero.

The result of each limit is given by the leading term, which has the highest power of x.

Let's start in the first information:
[tex]arcBC\cong arcDE[/tex]This can be verified, because, AC, AB, AD and AE are all congruent, because they are the radius of A and, since BC and DE are congruent, triangles ABC and ADE are also congruent.
Thus, the angles mBAC and mDAE are congruent. The measure of thesee angles are the same as the arcs BC and DE, so we verified this alternative.

[tex]\angle BAC\cong\angle DAE[/tex]And we verified the third alternative:
[tex]\Delta ABC\cong\Delta ADE[/tex]We are left with the last alternative:
[tex]\angle DAE\cong\angle CAD[/tex]This can't be verified. One way of seeing that is that we can rotate triangle ABC around the circle without changing any of the given information, however this changes mCAD.

1) Firstly, we need to orderly write this sequence of numbers:
