The graph of y = 3x + 1 has a slope of 3, for it to be steeper the graph should have a slope of more than 3.
Therefore, the equation to use is y = 7x + 1
Answer:
The claim is not true
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that A local retailer claims that the mean waiting time is less than 8 minutes.


A random sample of 20 waiting times has a mean of 6.3 minutes with a standard deviation of 2.1 minutes.

s = 2.1
n = 20
Since n <30 and population standard deviation is unknown
So,we will use t test
So,

t=-3.62
α = 0.01
Degree of freedom = df=n-1=20-1=19

t calculated < t critical
So, we failed to reject null hypothesis
Hence the claim is not true
Answer:
The reason for the decreasing sequence is 
the sum of the sequence is -243
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that the numbers are decreasing so we will use the following formula to find the sum:
S∞=
,
where t1 is equal to the first number of the sequence and q is the reason that gives the following results.
to find q this form is used;
q= 
then we replace in the formula of the sum to find the total
answer is p= -7
hope this helps your welcome
It would be A. 3z+7z.....
