Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the mean.

Step 2: Calculate how far away each data point is from the mean using positive distances. These are called absolute deviations.

Step 3: Add those deviations together.

Step 4: Divide the sum by the number of data points.

Find an equation of the line passing through the pair of points. Write the equation in slope-intercept form.

muminat

Answer:

y=10-x

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the slope of the equation using the formula (change in y/change in x)

(3-7)/(7-3)=-4/4=-1

2. Plug in the slope and one of the coordinate points to the slope-intercept form to find the y-intercept.

slope-intercept form: y=mx+b

7=-3+b

b=10

3. Put the slope-intercept form of the equation together.

y=10-x

Express each product in the simplest form. A. wx/6 B. wx/3 C. 2/3/wx D. wx

____ [38]

Answer:

A) $\frac{wx}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3wx}{6x}\cdot \frac{3wx}{9w}$

Multiply:

$\frac{3wx\cdot \:3wx}{6x\cdot \:9w}$

Cancel off the common factor "w":

$\frac{3x\cdot \:3wx}{6x\cdot \:9}$

Cancel off the common factor "x":

$\frac{3\cdot \:3wx}{6\cdot \:9}$

$\frac{9wx}{54}$

Cancel off the common factor "9":

$\frac{wx}{6}$
