Astudy analyzed the average yearly salt intake in the united states from 2012 thru 2017. the data is summarized in the table: year annual salt intake (grams) 2012 3,554 2013 3,598 2014 3,603 2015 3,655 2016 3,718 2017 3,794 the study found that the data after the year 2012 can be modeled by the function f(x) = 52.3x + 3,548, where x is the number of years since 2012 and f(x) is the total amount of salt ingested in grams. describe the significance of 3,548. an estimate of the grams of salt used in 2012 an estimate of the grams of salt used in 2013 the average amount of salt in grams used in 2012 the average amount of salt in grams used in 2013

An alien has just landed from the planet, iksnimak. he would like to leam how to add two fractions when thedenominators are the same. write a paragraph that explains to our alien friend, in your own words, the detailsabout how to add the fractions, how to change the result to a mixed number, and how to reduce the fractionpart. use this problem as your example: the two fractions are 5/8 & 7/8

1mile equals approximately 1.6 kilometers. which best approximates the number of miles in 6 kilometers?

1.3.4 practice : modeling: solving linear equations in this assignment, you may work alone, with a partner, or in a small group. discuss the results of your work and/or any lingering questions with your teacher. your assignment: road trip you're taking a scenic road trip down ca-highway 1 from san jose, california, to los angeles. you plan to split the drive into two days, stopping for one night. choose one town to stop in, and find the driving distance for the second day. 1. circle the town you chose to stop in. (1 point) santa barbara: an image of palm trees san luis obispo: an image of a church 2. why did you choose this town? (1 point) 3.what do you know? .what do you want to find out? .what kind of answer do you expect? define the variable. 4. what is the variable x for this problem? (1 point) write the equation. 5. write an equation showing that the distance traveled on the first day plus the distance traveled on the second day is equal to 425 miles. (4 points: 2 points for each side of the equation) isolate the variable. 6. what inverse operation do you need to perform on both sides to isolate x in the equation? (2 points: 1 point for the correct number, 1 point for the correct operation) solve the equation. 7. solve the equation for x. interpret the answer in terms of the problem. (2 points: 1 point for the solution, 1 point for the interpretation) check your solution. 8. to confirm that your answer is correct, add the two days' distances. this should equal the total distance from san jose to los angeles. show your work as an equation. (3 points: 1 point for the setup, 2 points for the correct answer)
