I think the answer is 30, because if 134 +16 is 5 times the number of books Beezus reads, than just divide by 4 for the answer of 30

42.8 or 42 books I believe. Sorry if this is wrong :/

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-6,-8) and is parallel to the line x-2y=6?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

<u>What we need to know:</u>

  • Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)
  • Parallel lines always have the same slope and different y-intercepts

<u>1) Determine the slope (m)</u>

x-2y=6

Rearrange this equation into slope-intercept form (this will help us find the slope)

Subtract x from both sides

x-2y-x=6-x\\-2y=-x+6

Divide both sides by -2

y=\frac{1}{2} x-3

Now, we can identify clearly that the slope of the given line is \frac{1}{2} since it's in the place of m. Because parallel lines always have the same slopes, the line we're currently solving for would therefore have a slope of \frac{1}{2} as well. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=\frac{1}{2}x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (b)</u>

y=\frac{1}{2}x+b

Plug in the given point (-6,-8)

-8=\frac{1}{2}(-6)+b\\-8=-3+b

Add 3 to both sides to isolate b

-8+3=-3+b+3\\-5=b

Therefore, the y-intercept is -5. Plug this back into y=\frac{1}{2}x+b:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-5

I hope this helps!

Indicate whether the following analysis involves a statistical test. If it does involve a statistical test, state the population
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Yes, The analysis involves a statistical test.

The hypothesis are H_0: \mu_R = \mu_L,\ and\ H_A: \mu_R < u_L

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Testing 500 right-handed participants on the reaction time of their left and right hands to determine if there is evidence for the claim that the right hand reacts faster than the left.

Yes, The above analysis involves a statistical test.

Where claim is right hand reacts faster than the left hand.

If right hand reacts faster that means the reaction time of right hand should be smaller than the reaction time of left hand.

Let \mu_R to be the average reaction time of their right hands for the right-handed participants and \mu_L to be the average reaction time of their left hands.

Therefore, the hypothesis are H_0: \mu_R = \mu_L,\ and\ H_A: \mu_R < u_L
