Answer:

k = ⅕  

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept equation for a straight line is

y = mx + b, where

m = the slope and

b = the y-intercept

Data:

(3,4)     = a point on the line

(3k,0)   = x-intercept

(0,-5k) = y-intercept

Calculations:

1. Slope

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (-5k - 0)/(0 - 3k) = -5/(-3) = ⁵/₃

This makes the equation

y = ⁵/₃x - 5k

2. k

Insert the value of the known point: (3,4)

4 = (⁵/₃)(3) - 5k

4 = 5 - 5k

-1 = -5k

k = ⅕

The figure below shows your graph passing through (3,4) with intercepts 3k and -5k on the x- and y-axes respectively .

Trevor thinks that left-handed pitchers in a baseball league are more likely to strike out batters than right-handed pitchers ar
Scilla [17]

Answer:

C. H0: PL - PR = 0

Ha: PL - PR > 0

The null hypothesis for this case is that left-handed pitchers in a baseball league are not more likely to strike out batters than right-handed pitchers are. That is the proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout is significantly equal for both left-handed and right-handed pitchers.

H0: PL - PR = 0

The alternative hypothesis is that the proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout is significantly higher for left-handed pitchers

Ha: PL - PR > 0

PL - proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout for left-handed pitchers

PR - proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout for right-handed pitchers

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis (H0) tries to show that no significant variation exists between variables or that a single variable is no different than its mean. While an alternative Hypothesis (Ha) attempt to prove that a new theory is true rather than the old one. That a variable is significantly different from the mean.

The alternative hypothesis is that the proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout is significantly higher for left-handed pitchers

Ha: PL - PR > 0

PR - proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout for right-handed pitchers

What is 40 divided by five
trapecia [35]
40÷5= 8 You have to see how many time 5 can go into 40 
1. see how many times 5 goes into 4 none so the first number is 0
2. then you see how many time 5 can go into 0 o times
3. so you have to see how many time you can count 5 into 40 
(count by 5's) 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40 that should be 8 times total!

How many math books and English books did Nicole purchase?
Ksju [112]
Create a system if equations to solve this.

First equation:
25m + 24e = 220

Second equation:
m + e = 9

Then you must solve the second equation for a variable.

Change m + e = 9 to e = 9 - m.

Then substitute (9 - m) for e in the first equation.

So 25m +24e = 220 becomes 25m + 24(9 - m) = 220.

Now you can solve the first equation because the only variable in it is m.

25m + 24(9 - m) = 220 (Original equation)
25m + 216 - 24m = 220 (Distribute)
m + 216 = 220 (Combine like terms)
m = 4 (Simplify)

Now plug in 4 for m in the second equation.

m + e = 9 (Original equation)
(4) + e = 9 (Substitute)
e = 5 (Simplify)

m represents Math Books and e represents English Books, so Nicole purchased 4 Math Books and 5 English Books.
