So I believe you go
$( y_{1} - y_{2} )$ $(x_{1}- x_{2)}$

and substitute x an y like this

(1-7) (7-1)
and get a slope of -9/6

Sorry If I got it wrong,but I hope I helped

How do you find the first five terms of a sequence defined recursively

Blizzard [7]

Interesting question. Good to know for computer science.
Suppose you have a function like
an = 3x - 2 Try the first couple
a1 = 3(1) - 2
a1 = 3 - 2
a1 = 1

a2 = 3(2) - 2
a2 = 6 - 2
a2 = 4 So each term differs by 3
a2 - a1 = 3

an = a_(n - 1) + 3
a3 = a2 + 3
a3 = 4 + 3
a3 = 7

a4 = a3 + 3
a4 = 7 + 3
a4 = 10

a5 = a4+ 3
a5 = 10 + 3
a5 = 13

I'll do one more and then check it.
a6 = a5 + 3
a6 = 13 + 3
a6 = 16

a6 = 3x -2
a6 = 3*6 - 2
a6 = 18 - 2
a6 = 16 which checks.

So the general formula is
an = a_(n - 1) * k if you were multiplying or
an = a_(n - 1) + k if you were adding. The key thing is that you are working with the previous term.

Do the results support or contradict the common belief that the mean body temperature is 98.6degreesF? A. The results contradic

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A. The results contradict the belief that the mean body temperature is 98.6 °F because both the mean and the median are less than 98.6 °F.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the temperature data were those in the table below.

You would have calculated that

Mean = 97.9 °F

Median = 97.9 °F

These observations contradict the belief that the mean body temperature is 98.6 °F.

A 2017 study found the mean oral temperature of more than 35 000 British patients was 97.9 °F.

Draw graph of straight lines to find approximate solution to these simultaneous equations . y = 3x + 7 and 2y + x = 2

Aliun [14]

Answer:

(-1.714, 1.857)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the approximate solution to the system of linear equations

We start by plotting the graph of the lines

We have the plot as shown below;

the red line represents the first equation while the blue line represents the second equation

We have the solution as the point at which the two lines meet

The solution to this is;

(-1.714, 1.857)
