By using any two of the points in the table, we will see that the slope is -2.

<h3>How to get the slope for the linear relationship?</h3>

A general linear relationship is:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Remember that if the line passes through (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), the slope is:

$a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Here we can use the first two points on the table:

(-4, 11) and (2, -1), so the slope is:

$a = \frac{11 - (-1)}{-4 - 2} = 12/-6 = -2$

Then the slope of the line is -2.

Frank is having the car pets in his house cleaned. The cost of the cleaning is calculated from the area of the carpets. C= the c

asambeis [7]

Answer:

Cost of the cleaning, C is the dependent variable

Area of the carpet, a is the independent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of the cleaning is calculated from the area of the carpets

C= the cost of the cleaning a= the area of the carpets.

Cost of the cleaning, C is the dependent variable

Area of the carpet, a is the independent variable

A dependent variable is a variable which depends on other factors to exist. They take their values based on other factors. Their value is changed as a result of a change in independent variable

An independent variable is a variable which does not change as a result of the change in other factors. They take their values irrespective of external factors around them.

The numbers of regular season wins for 10 football teams in a given season are given below. Determine the range, mean, variance,

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

We have the following data set:

2,7,15,3,12,9,15,8,3,10

The range is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the set, to find the range, order the data set from least to greatest.

2,3,3,7,8,9,10,12,15,15

Then,

$\begin{gathered} \text{Range}=15-2 \\ \text{Range}=13 \end{gathered}$

Mean is represented by the following expression:

$\text{Mean}=\frac{\text{Sum of all data points}}{Number\text{ of data po}ints}$ $\text{Mean}=\frac{84}{10}=8.4$

Population variance formula looks like this:

$\begin{gathered} \sigma^2=\frac{\sum^{}_{}(x-\mu)^2}{N} \\ \text{where,} \\ \sigma^2=\text{population variance} \\ \sum ^{}_{}=addition\text{ of} \\ x=\text{each value} \\ \mu=population\text{ mean} \\ N=\text{ number of values in the population} \end{gathered}$

Then, substituting:
