Greetings!

"The difference of six times a number and 7 is -49"...

In number and variables, this would be:
 $6x-7=-49
$

Add 7 to both sides.
 $(6x-7)+7=(-49)+7$
Simplify.
 $6x=-42$
Divide both sides by 6.
$(6x)/6=(-42)/6$
Simplify.
$x=-7$

Hope this helps.

Statistics Question. Use the Desmos graphing calculator to find the least-squares regression line for the dataset in the table:

Soloha48 [4]

Given:

The table of values.

To find:

The least-squares regression line for the data set in the table by using the desmos graphing calculator.

Solution:

The general form of least-squares regression line is:

$\hat{y}=mx+b$ ...(i)

Where, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

By using the desmos graphing calculator, we get

$m\approx 2.55,b\approx -6.435$

Substitute these values in (i).

$\hat{y}=(2.55)x+(-6.435)$

$\hat{y}=2.55x-6.435$

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Ratio of two complementary angles is 3:7. What's the measures of both angles

Advocard [28]

The total 'parts' of the ratio is 10 (3+7).
Complementary angles add to 90 degrees.
Divide 90 by 10 and you get 9.
Each 'part' is 9.
3:7 * 9 = 27:63
One angle is 27 degrees and the other is 63 degrees.
