Remove the brackets
-5a + 9b + 7a combine -5a and 7a
7a - 5a + 9b
2a + 9b Answer
Don't go any further. There is nothing else to do. These are unlike terms and cannot be reduced or combined.
r value i.e Correlation between x value and y value = 0.769
=Standard deviation of the x-coordinate = 5.508
=Standard deviation of the y-coordinate = ?=k
Slope of line is given by formula
If slope of line is m, then
m =
m= 
Substitute the value of k, i.e Standard deviation of the y-coordinate and then you can get the slope of line to three decimal places.
Answer:
They are taking 12 2 credit courses
The are taking 4 1 credit courses
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 1 credit courses
y = 2 credit courses
The number of courses is 16
x+y = 16
The number of credits is 28 so multiply the course by the number of credits
1x+2y=28
Subtract the first equation from the second equation
x+2y =28
-x-y=-16
-----------------
y = 12
They are taking 12 2 credit courses
We still need to find the 1 credit courses
x+y = 16
x+12= 16
Subtract 12 from each side
x-12-12 = 16-12
x =4
The are taking 4 1 credit courses
