Answer:

y = +3/2x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

get slope

get midpoint

get b

1.

(-7,8) and (-1,4)

get slope

(y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

slope is -2/3

perpendicular slope is the negative reciprocal :

+3/2

y=mx + b

y=+3/2x + b

get midpoint :

(x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2

(-4,6)

get b

y=mx + b

6=+3/2(-4) + b

6= -6+ b

b = 12

y = +3/2x + 12

The hourly wages earned by 20 employees are shown in the first box-and-whisker plot below. The person earning $15 per hour quits
agasfer [191]

Answer:

<h2>The mean decreases, and the median remains the same.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a box plot is made by the quartiles of the distribution, the maximum value and the minimum value. So, from a box plot we can deduct the range, the median and the interquartile range.

In this case, the median remains the same at $9.5 per hour. The median is indicated by the middle line of the box, and you can observe that it doesn't change.

Now, the range of the data set decreases from 7 to 3.

On the other hand, the mean must decrease, because data greater than $11 doesn't exist in the box plot number 2, and the mean is a central measure sensible to those changes.

Therefore, the right answer is <em>The mean decreases, and the median remains the same.</em>

Josiah traveled 79.5 miles on 3 gallons of gasoline. At this rate, how many gallons of gasoline would he need to travel 265 mile
BigorU [14]
Josiah would need 10 gallons to travel 265 miles.

First we divide 79.5 by 3 to find out how many gallons are needed for one mile.

79.5/3=26.5

For one mile we need 26.5 gallons of gas.

Now we will divide 265 by 26.5 to find the answer to the problem.

265/26.5=10

Josiah will need 10 gallons of gas to travel 265 miles
