Answer:

y = -3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of the equation of a line is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

First, we find the slope of the line using the two given points.

m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (2 - (-7))/(-1 - 2) = (2 + 7)/(-3) = 9/(-3) = -3

Now we plug in the slope we found into the equation above.

y = -3x + b

We need to find the value of b, the y-intercept. We use the coordinates of one of the given points for x and y, and we solve for b. Let's use point (2, -7), so x = 2, and y = -7.

y = -3x + b

-7 = -3(2) + b

-7 = -6 + b

Add 6 to both sides.

-1 = b

Now we plug in -1 for b.

y = -3x - 1

Answer:

test statistic, z =  −1.74

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

students n = 100

mean time x  = 41.13 seconds

σ  = 5

we consider µ = 42

solution

we get here The test statistic that is express as

test statistic, z = \frac{x-\mu }{\frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}}}      ......................1

put here value and we will get

test statistic, z = \frac{41.13-42}{\frac{5 }{\sqrt{100}}}

test statistic, z =  −1.74

What are the real and complex solutions of the polynomial equation? X4-41x2=-400
stich3 [128]
For the answer to the question above, I'll provide a solution for my answer below.
x^4 - 41x^2 = - 400 
<span>=> x^4 - 41x^2 + 400 = 0 </span>
<span>=> x^2 = (1/2) [41 ±√(1681 - 100)] </span>
<span>=> x^2 = (1/2) (41 ± 9) </span>
<span>=> x^2 = 16 or 25 
</span>
So, therefore, the answers for your problem are
<span>=> x = ± 4 or ± 5.

I hope my answer helped you. </span>
