in a xy-coordinate system line 1 has a slope of -3. If the points (2,16 and (5,t) are on line 1, what is the value of t?

1 answer:

8 0

We can use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1 to find our answer. So, we have : t-16/5-2 = -3. We simplify that to t-16/3 = -3. We can then multiply both sides by 3 to get t-16 = -9. Then we can add 16 to both sides to get t = 7.

X=2
you multiply by 8 on both sides. so that your equation now looks like x-2=0
then you will add by 2 on both sides.
x=2

Answer:

360 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get this answer, you have to multiply 5 and 8 by 3 because the drawing is 1/3 of the actual flag.

5 x 3 = 15

8 x 3 = 24

So, 24 x 15 = 360 in.

Hope this helps! :)

True or False: Point estimation is a form of statistical inference in which, based on the sample data, we estimate the unknown p

storchak [24]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Point estimation of a population parameter provides an estimate of a single value calculated from the sample that is likely to be close to its value to the unknown parameter. Itis to be noted that a point estimate will not in general be equal to the population parameter as the random sample used is one of the many possible samples which could be chosen from the population.

For example, in estimation, we may estimate the mean and the variance of a population by computing the mean and the variance of the sample drawn from a population.
