Answer:  The required number of houses is 200.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that in a housing estate, the direct proportion of flats to houses is 2 : 5 and there are 80 flats.

We are to find the number of houses.

Let 2x and 5x represents the number of flats and houses respectively.

Then, according to the given information, we have

2x=80\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{80}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=40.

Therefore, the number of houses is given by

5\times40=200.

Thus, the required number of houses is 200.

PLEASE HELP<br><br><br> What is the equation of the line shown?
Ivenika [448]

So, let's start off with explaining what these different questions mean;

y = |x + c| Shifts the graph c units left.

y = |x - c| Shifts the graph c units right.

y = |x| + c Shifts the graph c units up.

y = |x| - c Shifts the graph c units down.

(0,0) Is the starting point on any graph like this. So, determine the answer by going through the list of answers.

I believe the answer is y = 2x.

I would like to know if I am wrong so contact me!!

Allen's hummingbird (Selasphorus sasin) has been studied by zoologist Bill Alther.† Suppose a small group of 10 Allen's hummingb
ruslelena [56]

Answer: provided in the explanation segment

Step-by-step explanation:

(a). from the question, we can see that since that б is known, we can use standard normal, z.

we are asked to find an 80% confidence interval for the average weights of Allen's hummingbirds in the study region. What is the margin of error?

⇒ 80% confidence interval for the average weight of Allen's hummingbirds is given thus;

x ± z * б / √m

which is

3.15 ± 1.28 * 0.32/√10

= 3.15 ± 0.1295 = 3.0205 or 3.2795

(b). normal distribution of weight (c) б is known

(c). option (a) and (e) are correct

(d).  from the question, let sample size be given as S

this gives';

1.28 * 0.32/√S = 0.15

√S = (1.28 * 0.32) / 0.15 = 2.73

S = 7.4529

cheers i hope this helps

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y+3=4(x-5)?
Rudiy27

Answer:

the slope  is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y+3=4(x-5)

This is in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

where (x1,y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope

The slope is 4 and a point on the line is (5,-3)
