The amount of salary a technician takes home in a month increases with sales of stocks, the amount of charge fees, and the number of working hours. Which of the following is the dependent variable?

The sides of a right-angled triangle are determined by the Pythagoras theorem. If we let the unknown side to x as in the figure below, then theory is applied as follows.  

The value of x is found as:

The value of the unknown leg side of a triangle is about 9.8 feet.

we are asked to find the amount of milk in mL using the given information.

If we let x represent the amount of milk in mL, we set up a proportion with number of teaspoons on the numerator and amount in mL in the denominator.

A recipe of 3.4 teaspoons is equal to 17.0 mL.

we are asked to find the area of a rectangle, which can only be found by finding the relation between length and width. Now, letting x represent the width, then

Length of rectangle=(x+2)

Width of the rectangle= x

Area of the rectangle, A= Length*width=(x+2)*x

A=x(x+2)

Therefore, the area of the rectangle becomes x(x+2).

An independent variable is a variable that is manipulated or changed in the experiment. From the given equation, x is variable that is changed to obtain the desired outcome, F(x). Therefore, x is an independent variable.

The SI units of measuring length is meter. However, a meter can be a large unit or small quantity depending what is being measured. Therefore, derived units of meters are used to measure the length of an object. In our case, centimeters is the appropriate unit to measure the width of the window.

we are asked to find the percent change in weight gain of a person.

First, we need to find the change in weight gained over the 4 months

Change in weight= 186-176=10 lb

The percent change is expressed as change in weight over original weight *100. Then

The percent change in weight is 6% to the nearest whole number.

We are given the equation:

6x−5=10x+15

Step 1: Move all xxx-terms to one side

Subtract 6x from both sides:

−5=10x−6x+15

Step 2: Move constants to the other side

Subtract 15 from both sides:

−5−15=4x

−20=4x

Step 3: Solve for x

Divide both sides by 4:

x=−20/4 = −5

we are to use the pie chart to find the number of students enrolled in dental hygiene care.

Letting x represent the number of students enrolled in dental hygiene care, we set the proportion equation with number of students as numerator and percentage as denominator. It should be noted that the whole pie chart represents 100% of the 800 students. Then,

We solve the value of x by cross-products.

Therefore, 144 students will enroll for a dental hygiene program.

We are tasked to find the unknown values of x in the given equation.

First, we add 8 to both sides of the equation.

Next, we apply the absolute rule:

If   , a>0, then u=a or u=-a

From our resulting equation, a=14, which is greater 0. Then, the first condition (u=a) becomes

Solving for x

The second condition (u= -a) becomes

Solving for x

Thus, the value of x is 4 or -3

the mean of a data set is the sum of the scores divided by the number of tests.

Total test scores =99+93+67+ 48+ 92+ 87=486

Number of tests =6

Mean test score =486/6=81

The mean test score is 81.
