I am not sure, but I think you are talking about the least square method
7 x - 5 = 8
7 x = 8 + 5
7 x = 13
x = 13/7
7 ( 13/7) - 5 = 8
91/7 - 35/7 = 56/7
56/7 = 56/7 = 8
Answer:
1.) mean
2.) H0 : μ = 64
3.) 0.0028
4) Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Null hypothesis ; H0 : μ = 64
Alternative hypothesis ; H1 : μ < 64
From the data Given :
70; 45; 55; 60; 65; 55; 55; 60; 50; 55
Using calculator :
Xbar = 57
Sample size, n = 10
Standard deviation, s = 7.14
Test statistic :
(xbar - μ) ÷ s/sqrt(n)
(57 - 64) ÷ 8 / sqrt(10)
Test statistic = - 2.77
Pvalue = (Z < - 2.77) = 0.0028 ( Z probability calculator)
α = 10% = 0.1
Reject H0 ; if P < α
Here,
P < α ; Hence, we reject the null
Answer:
A.
Negative reciprocal gives you the perpendicular slope so negative reciprocal of 1/2 is -2.
Then apply point-slope form.
B. The answer is x = 6.
The midpoint of JK is
The line that goes through JK is just a horizontal line because the y-coordinate does not change. So its perpendicular bisector is the vertical line that goes through the x-coordinate of the midpoint, that is, .
