8 0

Answer:

The slope is 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).

y2 is -3, y1 is -3.

x2 is 1 and x1 is -9.

m= -3 -(-3)/ 1- (-9)

m= 0/10

m=0

Denise is a professional swimmer who trains, in part, by running. she would like to estimate the average number of miles she run
SSSSS [86.1K]
Given:
n = 20, sample size
xbar = 17.5, sample mean
s = 3.8, sample standard deiation
99% confidence interval

The degrees of freedom is 
df = n-1 = 19

We do not know the population standard deviation, so we should determine t* that corresponds to df = 19.
From a one-tailed distribution, 99% CI means using a p-value of 0.005.
Obtain
t* = 2.8609.

The 99% confidence interval is
xbar +/- t*(s/√n)

t*(s/√n) = 2.8609*(3.8/√20) = 2.4309
The 99% confidence interval is
(17.5 - 2.4309, 17.5 + 2.4309) = (15.069, 19.931)

Answer: The 99% confidence interval is (15.07, 19.93)

A wire 15 cm long is cut into two pieces. The longer piece is 3.cmidonger than the shorter piece.Find the length of the shorter
Andre45 [30]

A piece of wire is cut into two pieces. That means each part would be assigned an unknown variable. Let one part be x and the other part be y.

That means,

x+y=15\operatorname{cm}

If the longer part is x, and the longer part is 3cm longer than the shorter part, then we would have the following;

\begin{gathered} x+y=15 \\ x=y+3 \\ \text{This is because x is 3cm longer,} \\ So\text{ the length of x would be y+3} \end{gathered}

We can now refine the equation as follow;

\begin{gathered} \text{Where;} \\ x=y+3 \\ x+y=15 \\ y+3+y=15 \\ 2y+3=15 \\ \text{Subtract 3 from both sides;} \\ 2y+3-3=15-3 \\ 2y=12 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 2;} \\ \frac{2y}{2}=\frac{12}{2} \\ y=6 \\ \text{When;} \\ x+y=15 \\ x+6=15 \\ \text{Subtract 6 from both sides;} \\ x+6-6=15-6 \\ x=9 \end{gathered}

ANSWER:

The length of the shorter piece of wire is 6cm

In the field of astronomy, the ability to measure angles accurately and precisely enables us to calculate the position and relative movement of the stars and galaxies in relation to each other, to determine how far distant they are from us, and even to estimate their relative size.
