7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 - 2 = 0, not a positive integer.

2 - 3 = -1, a negative integer.

Obviously, the difference is only positive if the number being subtracted is smaller than the number it is being subtracted from.

Answer: the smallest number of people required for the sample to meet the conditions for performing inference is 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

36% of US population has never been married

32% are divorced

27% are married

5% are widowed

Taking a simple random sample of individuals to test this claim;

we need expected count in each cell to be at least 5, here the smallest proportion is 5% = 0.05

so we only need to satisfy condition for its expected count;

n × 0.05 ≥ 5

n = 5 / 0.05 = 100

Therefore the smallest number of people required for the sample to meet the conditions for performing inference is 100

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Given, side (a) = x+3
We know, surface area of a cube = 6a^2
Therefore, the surface area of the cube

evablogger [386]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

a. Using a point on the graph, (6, 12), and the slope of the line, we can first generate an equation in the point-slope form, given as $y - b = m(x - a)$ , where,

m = slope, and (a, b) is a point on the line.

Using two points, (6, 12) and (3, 21), let's find slope, m.

$slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{21 - 12}{3 - 6} = \frac{9}{-3} = -3$

Using a point (6, 12) and slope, m = -3, generate an equation in the point-slope form by substituting a = 6, b = 12, and m = -3 in $y - b = m(x - a)$ .

✅Equation in point-slope form would be:

$y - 12 = -3(x - 6)$
