The value of x is 6 in the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is;

$\frac{x}{6}+\frac{2x}{3}=5$

Taking least common multiple

$\frac{x+4x}{6}=5$

Multiplying both sides by 6

$6*\frac{5x}{6}=5*6\\5x=30$

Dividing both sides by 5

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{30}{5}\\x=6$

The value of x is 6 in the equation.

Since they are already in order you know the 22 and the 61 are the upper and lower extremes. To find the median you find the number that is in the middle which is 42. To find the lower quartile find the middle number starting from the first number and the number to the left of the median (22 and 36 in this case). The loser quartile is 25. To find the upper quartile, fine the middle number between the number to the right of the median and the last number (44 and 61 in this case.) the upper quartile is 57 you then just plot it and graph it

The least squares regression line is y=0.6831x+11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

LSRL is the the Least Squares Regression Line.The formula for regression line is y=mx+b where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept value of the line.

First find the slope, m of the line from the means and standard deviations given

x has a mean of 17.2 g and a standard deviation of 14.0 g

y has a mean of 23.5 g and a standard deviation of 16.4 g

The correlation coefficient in both cases is 0.83, hence the slope m is given by;

m=r(Sy/Sx) where m is the slope of the line, Sy is standard deviation of y values, Sx is standard deviation of x values and r is the correction coefficient.

m= 0.5 * 23.5/17.2 =0.6831

Find the value of b, the y-intercept

b=Y-mX where X and Y are the mean values for x and y respectively

b=23.5-0.6831*17.2

b=23.5-11.75=11.25

The LSRL is y=0.6831x+11.25

If you borrow $700 for 5 years at

Otrada [13]

The amount you would pay altogether if you borrow $500 for 5 years at

an annual interest rate of 7% is $945.

<h3>How much would you pay altogether?</h3>

The amount you would pay altogether is the sum of the amount borrowed and the interest.

Total value of the debt = interest + amount borrowed

Interest = $700 x 7% x 5 = $245

Total value of the debt = $245 + $700 = $945

Which polynomial function has zeros at 2, −4, and 1?

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

y = (x - 2)(x + 4)(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the zeros of a function say x = a and x = b, then

The factors are (x - a) and (x - b) and

y = (x - a)(x - b)

Given the zeros are x = 2, x = - 4, x = 1, then

the factors are (x - 2), (x - (- 4)) and (x - 1), that is

(x - 2), (x + 4), (x - 1) , thus

y = (x - 2)(x + 4)(x - 1)
