The weight of the pig now is 54.9562 kg.

Given that the farm veterinarian, checked, a particular pig weighed 59.8 kilograms. Dr. Mason just weighed the pig again and found out that it weighs 8.1% less now.

The reduction will be:

= Percentage × Original weight

= 8.1% × 59.8

= 4.8438 kg

Therefore the weight of the pig will be:

= Original weight - Reduction

= 59.8 - 4.8438

The height of the tree was 56 inches.

We can calculate the percentage of a certain amount by :

Subtracting  New - Original / New multiplied by 100

this implies it will be

75 - x / 75 × 100 = 25 %

7500 - 100 x = 1875

this implies 7500 - 1875 = 100 x

5625 = 100 x

Thus , On dividing both sides by 100 we get

when you are interrogating the external validity of a sample, option(b). how was the sample collected? is the most important question to ask.

What is External validity?

The concept of external validity is related to the concept of generalization. It's imperative to keep that in mind. It is important to remember that validity refers to the approximate truth of a proposition, an inference, or a conclusion. In other words, external validity refers to the relative truth of generalizations based on generalizations. The external validity of your study is the degree to which the conclusions are applicable to other people, places, and times.

An external validity threat is an explanation of how a generalization could be flawed. A study you conducted in a particular place, with certain types of people, at a particular time, can be generalized to another context (for instance, another place, with slightly different people, at a slightly different time). External validity can be compromised in three ways: people, places, and times.

Question

Answer:

[tex]y = 2x - 5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step in finding the equation of a line from a given set of points is to find its slope. The slope of a line is defined by the formula:

[tex]m = \dfrac{\textrm{rise}}{\textrm{run}} = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

In this problem, we are given two points in the form [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex].

So, we can define the x's and y's as:

[tex]x_1 = 3[/tex], [tex]y_1 = 1[/tex], [tex]x_2 = 1[/tex], [tex]y_2 = -3[/tex].

Hence, the slope of the line can be solved for.

[tex]m = \dfrac{-3 - 1}{1 - 3}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{-4}{-2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 2[/tex]

So, the slope of the line is 2.

Now, we can plug this into the point-slope equation for a line where (a, b) is a point on the line and m is its slope.

[tex]y - b = m(x - a)[/tex]

I will use the point (3, 1):

[tex]y - 1 = 2(x - 3)[/tex]

and isolate y to put it into slope-intercept form.

[tex]y - 1 = 2x - 6[/tex]

[tex]y = 2x - 6 + 1[/tex]

[tex]y = 2x - 5[/tex]

So, the equation in slope-intercept form for the line that goes through the points (3, 1) and (1, -3) is [tex]y = 2x - 5[/tex].

The probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes

The probability of getting green balls in first draw = 4 / 8

The equation of the line that passes through (-1, -1) and is parallel to x + y = 8 is x + y = -2

The equation of the line that passes through (-5, -2) and is parallel to y + 3x = 10 is 3x + y = -17

From the question, we are to determine the equation of the line passing through the given points and parallel to the given line.

NOTE: If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equal

First, we will determine the slopes of the given line

x + y = 8

Write the equation in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

Where m is the slope

and b is the y-intercept

x + y = 8 becomes

y = -x + 8

Therefore, m = -1

Now, we will determine the equation of a line that has a slope of -1 and that passes through (-1, -1)

Using the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line,

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-1) = -1(x - (-1))

y + 1 = -1(x + 1)

y + 1 = -x -1

x + y = -1 -1

x + y = -2

Hence, the equation is x + y = -2

Now, we will determine the slope of y + 3x = 10

Express the equation in slope-intercept form

y + 3x = 10

y = -3x + 10

Therefore, m = -3

Now, we will determine the equation of a line that has a slope of -3 and that passes through (-5, -2)

Using the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line,

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-2) = -3(x - (-5))

y + 2 = -3(x + 5)

y + 2 = -3x - 15

3x + y = -15 -2

3x + y = -17

The equation for the line that runs between the points (8, 4) and (0, 2) has the following slope-intercept form is : y = 1/4 x + 2

The point-slope form, standard form, and slope-intercept form are the three main types of linear equations.

Here,

A line's equation can be written as y = mx + b in slope-intercept form.

slope = m and y-intercept = b.

You can rewrite the equation in point-slope form as y = mx + b.

Given,

y - 4 = 1/4 (x - 8)

Change the formula to y = mx + b.

So,

y - 4 = 1/4 x - 2

We have to add 4 on both sides,

y - 4 + 4 = 1/4 x - 2 + 4

y = 1/4 x + 2

As a result, the equation of the line passing through the points (8, 4) and (0, 2) has the slope-intercept form is y = 1/4 x + 2 .

Answer:

B 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = y = x⁴ + 5

the inverse function is

y - 5 = x⁴

x = 4th root(y - 5)

now we rename y and x to make it a regular function definition :

g(x) = y = ±4th root(x - 5) = ±(x - 5)^(1/4)

because g(6) = 1 (positive), we have

g(x) = (x - 5)^(1/4)

and since we are using the positive branch, it means also that all the tangent slopes (= g'(x)) are positive.

g'(x) = 1/4 × (x - 5)^(-3/4) × 1 = 1/4 × (x - 5)^(-3/4)

because (x - 5)' = 1

g'(6) = 1/4 × (6 - 5)^(-3/4) = 1/4 × (1/1³)^(1/4) =

= 1/4 × 1^(1/4) = 1/4 × 1 = 1/4

the error being made is that on dividing both sides by 4 all terms must be divided by 4.

to obtain x + 9 = 4 from 4x + 9 = 16

the term 9 has not been divided by 4

correct solution is

4x + 9 = 16 ( divide through by 4 )

x + [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] = 4 ( each term being divided by 4 )

x + [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] = 4 ( subtract [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] from both sides )

x = 4 - [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16}{4}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] = 1.75

Therefore, 9 minus 4 equals 5, or the difference between 9 and 4.

Different kinds of numbers can also use subtraction, which is not just applicable to natural numbers.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the relation is [tex]p=k \frac{qr^2}{s}[/tex].

The value of k when q = 5, r = 4 and s = 6 is 3.

The value of p when q = 8, r= 6 and s= 9 is 96.

The value of s when p= 10, q=5 and r = 2 is 6.

A connection between two different items is called variation. There are two categories of difference. Direct Variation is the name of the first one. When two variables move in the same direction, direct variation occurs. Additionally, as one variable rises, the other variable rises as well. Inverse Variation is the second kind. When the two variables move in the opposite direction, inverse variation occurs. Additionally, this occurs when one variable rises while the other falls.

Since p varies directly as q and the square of r and inversely as s. So the equation will be [tex]p=k \frac{qr^2}{s}[/tex].

Now, finding the value of k, for p = 40 when q = 5, r = 4 and s = 6,

[tex]p=k \frac{qr^2}{s}\\40=k \frac{5\times4^2}{6}\\k = 3[/tex]

Now, finding the value of p when q = 8, r= 6 and s= 9,

[tex]p=3 \frac{8\times 6^2}{9}\\=96[/tex]

Now, finding the value of s when p= 10, q=5 and r = 2,

[tex]10=3 \frac{5\times 2^2}{s}\\\\10=3\times \frac{20}{s}\\s=6[/tex]

Therefore, the equation for the relation is [tex]p=k \frac{qr^2}{s}[/tex] , the value of k when p = 40 when q = 5, r = 4 and s = 6 is 3, the value of p when q = 8, r= 6 and s= 9 is 96 and the value of s when p= 10, q=5 and r = 2 is 6.
