Explain how to determine if a proportional relationship exists between two variables in a graph

Here are some steps to determine if a proportional relationship exists between two variables in a graph ! Hope it's useful~

*1.   Note whether the line is straight. When two variables are in proportion, the line representing them will be straight. This means that the slope of the line is constant, or follows the equation\

*2.  Determine the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. When two variables are directly proportional, when graphed their line will cross through the origin. The origin is at the point {(0,0)}, so the y-intercept of the line should be (0). If it isn’t, the variables are not directly proportional.**The y-axis is the vertical axis.

*3.  Find the coordinates of two points on the line. Compare the coordinates with each other, and determine whether each coordinate changed by the same factor.[6] That is, determine whether the constant ({k}) is the same for both the { x} and { y} values.For example, if the first point is {(1,3)}, and the second point is { (2,6)}, the x-coordinate changed by a factor of 2, since<span> { 1(2)=2}. The y-coordinate also changed by a factor of 2, since { 3(2)=6}. Thus, you can confirm that the line represents two variables that are directly proportional.

You measure the weight of 38 bags of nuts, and find they have a mean weight of 78 ounces. Assume the population standard deviati
Ket [755]

Answer: The maximal margin of error is 4.822.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of bags = 38

Sample mean = 78 ounces

Standard deviation = 14.5 ounces

At 96% confidence interval for the true population mean bags of nut weight.

So, z = 2.05

As we know that formula for "Margin of error":

z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=2.05\times \dfrac{14.5}{\sqrt{38}}\\\\=4.822

Hence, the maximal margin of error is 4.822.

What is list factors of 36​
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

36 ÷ 1 = 36

36 ÷ 2 = 18

36 ÷ 3 = 12

36 ÷ 4 = 9

36 ÷ 6 = 6

36 ÷ 9 = 4

36 ÷ 12 = 3

36 ÷ 18 = 2

36 ÷ 36 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The Postive Factors of 36 are therefore all the numbers we used to divide (divisors) above to get an even number. Here is the list of all Postive Factors of 36 in numerical order:

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36.

Factors of 36 include negative numbers. Therefore, all the Positive Factors of 36 can be converted to negative numbers. The list of Negative Factors of 36 are:

-1, -2, -3, -4, -6, -9, -12, -18, and -36.

How many Factors of 36?

When we counted the Factors of 36 that we listed above, we found that 36 has 9 Positive Factors and 9 Negative Factors. Thus, the total number of Factors of 36 is 18.

Factor Pairs of 36

Factor Pairs of 36 are combinations of two factors that when multiplied together equal 36. Here are all the Positive Factor Pairs of 36

1 × 36 = 36

2 × 18 = 36

3 × 12 = 36

4 × 9 = 36

6 × 6 = 36

9 × 4 = 36

12 × 3 = 36

18 × 2 = 36

36 × 1 = 36

Like we said above, Factors of 36 include negative numbers. Minus times minus equals plus, thus you can convert the Positive Factor Pair list above by simply putting a minus in front of every factor to get all the Negative Factor Pairs of 36:

-1 × -36 = 36

-2 × -18 = 36

-3 × -12 = 36

-4 × -9 = 36

-6 × -6 = 36

-9 × -4 = 36

-12 × -3 = 36

-18 × -2 = 36

-36 × -1 = 36
