Answer:

y = 3/4x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope:

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

= (-1 - (-7)) / (4 - (-4))

= 6 / 8

= 3/4

y-intercept:

y = mx + b

use the slope above and anyone of the given points to find b. Let's use (4, -1)

(-1) = 3/4(4) + b

-1 = 12/4 + b

- 1 = 3 + b

b = -4

Equation of a line:

y = mx + b

use the m and b from above to form the equation of a line.

y = 3/4x - 4

Use substitution to solve the following system of equations. Show all of your work. Write the solution as an ordered pair.

trapecia [35]

Answer:

$\left \{ {{x=2} \atop {y=2}} \right.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the second equation into the first one:

$4x+(2x-2)=10\\6x-2=10\\6x=12\\x=2$

Substitute $x=2$ into the second equation:

$y=2\times 2-2\\y=4-2\\y=2$

$\therefore \left \{ {{x=2} \atop {y=2}} \right.$

A social psychologist conducts an experiment and finds a statistically significant result. This means that the a. experiment is

coldgirl [10]

Considering that the hypothesis test found an statistically significant result, it is found that the correct option is:

c. probability of obtaining this finding by chance alone is less than some quantity.

<h3>What is an hypothesis test?</h3>

When a hypothesis test, there are two hypothesis, the null and the alternative hypothesis.

There is also a significance level.

If the probability of obtaining the finding by chance is less than the significant value, the result is statistically significant.

Hence, according to these bullet points, option C is correct.
