The combined height of the world’s three tallest buildings is 6,360 feet. The building in Dubai is 745 feet taller than the building in Makkah. Taipei’s building is 301 feet shorter than Makkah’s. The equation (x + 745) + x + (x – 301) = 6,360 represents the scenario.

What can be determined from the given information? Check all that apply.
x represents the height of the building in Dubai.
The expression (x – 301) represents the height of the building in Taipei.
The building in Makkah is 1,972 feet tall.

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.
