Negative Slope<span>. </span>If<span> a line has a </span>positive slope<span> (i.e. m > 0 ), then y always increases when x increases and y always decreases when x decreases. Thus, the </span>graph<span> of the line starts at the bottom left and goes towards the top right. Thus, as x increases by 3 , y decreases by 4 , and as x decreases by 3 , y increases by 4 .

You can find this by dividing $53.10 by $1,840.
Answer:
Brand 1 Brand 2 Difference
37734 35202 2532
45299 41635 3664
36240 35500 740

37210 38015 −805
48360 47800 560
38200 37810 390
33500 33215 285
Sum of difference = 2532+ 3664+740+150 −805+ 560 +390 +285 = 7516
Mean = 
Mean = 
a) d= 939.5


=1441.21
b)SD= 1441.21
c)Calculate a 99% two-sided confidence interval on the difference in mean life.
confidence level =99%
significance level =α= 0.01
Degree of freedom = n-1 = 8-1 =7
So, 
Formula for confidence interval 
Substitute the values

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We want to simplify:

We rewrite as positive index to get:

This simplifies to

This will finally give us:

We cannot simplify further.
Hence the simplest form is 
First combine like terms on each side so
8x = -7x
then move -7x
so x=0
