The slope of the line is - $\frac{9}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Two points are (4,10) and (2,1)

To find:

The slope of the line passes though the points

Formula to be used:

Let "m" be the slope of the points ( $x_{1} y_{1}$ ,) and ( $x_{2} y_{2}$ ) respectively,

We all be aware of the slope formula that,

m = $\frac{y_{2}- y_{1}}{x_{2}- x_{1}}$

Now,

The slope m = $\frac{1-10}{2-4}$

= $\frac{-9}{-2}$ = $\frac{9}{2}$

Thus the slope obtained is $\frac{9}{2}$

Answer:

slope = $\frac{9}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, 10) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 1)

m = $\frac{1-10}{2-4}$ = $\frac{-9}{-2}$ = $\frac{9}{2}$

Every confidence interval has associated z value. As confidence interval increases so do the z value associated with it.
The confidence interval can be calculated using following formula:
$\overline{x} \pm \frac{zs}{\sqrt n}$
Where $\overline{x}$ is the mean value, z is the associated z value, s is the standard deviation and n is the number of samples.
We know that standard deviation is simply a square root of variance:
$s=\sqrt{315900.20}=\$562.05$
The confidence interval of 95% has associated z value of <span>1.960.
</span>Now we can calculate the confidence interval for our income:
$3472.00\pm \frac{1.960\cdot 562.05}{\sqrt{60}}\\ \$3472.00\pm142.22$

A null hypothesis is being tested. How does the confidence level affect the testing process?

xxTIMURxx [149]

<span>If you have a high confidence level, the chance of rejecting the null hypothesis is rare. If you have a low confidence level, the chance of of rejecting the null hypothesis is nonexistent. If you have a low confidence level, the chance of of rejecting the null hypothesis is rare. If you have a high confidence level, the chance of of rejecting the null hypothesis is high.</span>

Find the values of A & B so that x^4+x^3+ax+b is divisible by x^2+1

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

a = 1 b = -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the quotient when you divide x^4+x^3+ax+b by x^2 + 1 is

x^2 + ax + b then expanding we have:

(x^2 + 1)(x^2 + ax + b)

= x^4 + ax^3 + bx^2 + x^2 + ax + b

= x^4 + ax^3 + (b + 1)x^2 + ax + b Comparing this with the original expression:

x^4 + x^3 + 0 x^2 + ax + b Comparing coefficients:

a = 1 and b+ 1 = 0 so b = -1.
