The table shows the height of water in a pool as it is being filled. A table showing Height of Water in a Pool with two columns

and six rows. The first column, Time in minutes, has the entries, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. The second column, Height in inches, has the entries, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24. The slope of the line through the points is 2. Which statement describes how the slope relates to the height of the water in the pool? The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute. The height of the water decreases 2 inches per minute. The height of the water was 2 inches before any water was added. The height of the water will be 2 inches when the pool is filled.

Answer:

The water level rises 2 inches for each minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope indicates the rate of height change

m = (16 - 12)/(4 - 2) = 4/2 = 2

2 inches per minute

A positive slope signifies an increase

Step-by-step explanation:

The provided data is as follows;

2.21

2.25

2.76

3.1

3.3

3.5

3.6

3.77

3.8

From this data, we can determine;

The count of runners finishing between 0 and 1 hour = 0

The count of runners finishing between 1 and 2 hours = 0

The count of runners finishing between 2 and 3 hours = 3

The count of runners finishing between 3 and 4 hours = 6

The count of runners finishing between 4 and 5 hours = 5

Based on these frequencies across the various time ranges, the histogram for the provided data has been constructed and is attached.

Two planes A and B can each fly through still air at 550 mph. The distance from Paris to Los Angeles is 5000 miles. Wind blows f
PIT_PIT [3949]

Answer:2688.63 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The distance from Paris to Los Angeles d=5000 miles

Wind traveling at 100 mph from Los Angeles to Paris

The velocity of the plane through still air is v=550 mph

Relative velocity of Plane A is v_a=550-100 =450 mph since Plane A is heading against the wind

Relative velocity of Plane B is v_b=550+100=650 mph

Plane A departs at noon

Distance covered by Plane A in 1 hour =450\times 1=450 miles

The total separation distance between the planes is 5000-450=4550 miles

Assuming they meet after t hours

Distance covered by Plane B in that time frame =v_b\times t=650\times t

Distance traveled by Plane A in t hours is =v_a\times t=450 t

The total distance equals 4550 miles

4550=650t+450t

t=\frac{4550}{1100}

t=4.13 hr

Distance traveled by B is =650\times 4.136=2688.63 miles

thus, they meet at a point 2688.63 miles away from Los Angeles.

do you agree that the equation (x-4)²=9 can be solved both by factoring and extracting square roots? ​
Zina [3936]

Given parameters:

  Equation:

          (x-4)²=9

Problem: Solve the equation by both factoring and extracting the square root.

Solution:

    Starting equation:

                  (x-4)²=9

         Subtracting 9 from both sides brings us to zero;

                (x-4)² - 9 = 0

                (x -4)² - 3² = 0

  This fits the concept of the difference of squares;

          x² - y² = (x + y)(x-y)

                     

Let x  = x-4 and y = -3

  Then input and solve;

              (x - 4 -3)(x - 4 -(-3)) = 0

              (x - 7)(x - 1) = 0

S thus,

             x - 7 = 0 or x-1 = 0

             x = 7 or 1

<pBy extracting the square roots;

          (x-4)² = 9

         √(x-4)² = √9

              x - 4 = 3

              x  = 4 + 3 = 7; however, this is not the sole solution

Thus, direct extraction of the square root is not the method for complete solutions.

The number of pages in the U.S. tax code exceeds the number of pages in the King James Bible by 18,528. The combined number of p
Leona [4205]
Let x represent the number of pages in the U.S. Tax Code and y denote the pages in the King James Bible.

According to the provided information,
x= y+18,528 ⇒ y=x-18,528
x+y = 21,472 ⇒ x+(x-18,528) = 21,472 ⇒ x+x-18,528 = 21,472 ⇒ 2x= 18,528+21,472 ⇒ 2x = 40,000 ⇒ x=40,000/2 = 20,000 pages

Therefore, the U.S. tax code consists of 20,000 pages.

A mail clerk found that the total weight of 155 packages was 815 pounds. if each of the packages weighed either 3 pounds or 8 po
tester [3968]
To solve this problem, you'll need to create two equations:
x + y = 155 (total packages)
3x + 8y = 815 (total weight)
Next, multiply the first equation by 3: 3x + 3y = 465.
Then, subtract the first equation from the second to find that 5y = 350, which means y = 70. Thus, there are 70 packages that weigh 8 pounds.
