Answer:

The slope is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the Rise/Run between the two points. The change in y for every change in x. Take the two points and calculate the:

RISE = (-6 - 3) = -9

RUN = (8 - 5) = 3

Rise/Run, or slope, is = -9/3 or -3

I graphed a line with slope of -3 and then added 18 to force the line to intersect the two given points.

madam [21]

The question seems to be pointing towards a multiple choice response but I will do my best. The first equation would be 15x+12y=9.30 and the second would be 10x+4y=4.60, x represents flour and y represents sugar.

Hope this helps.

Brewed decaffeinated coffee contains some caffeine. We want to estimate the amount of caffeine in 8 ounce cups of decaf coffee a

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

We would have to take a sample of 62 to achieve this result.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence level of 95%.

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.025 = 0.975$ , so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Assume that the standard deviation in the amount of caffeine in 8 ounces of decaf coffee is known to be 2 mg.

This means that $\sigma = 2$

If we wanted to estimate the true mean amount of caffeine in 8 ounce cups of decaf coffee to within /- 0.5 mg, how large a sample would we have to take to achieve this result?

We would need a sample of n.

n is found when $M = 0.5$ . So
