$5x+3y=6\\
3y=-5x+6\\
y=-\frac{5}{3}x+2\\
\boxed{m=-\frac{5}{3}}$

To get the result we have to transform given formula into y=ax+b form.
Lets do this
5x+3y=6 /-5x (subtract 5x both sides)
3y=-5x+6 /:3 (divide both sides by 3)
y= $-\frac{5}{3} x+6$
In form y=ax+b we know that a is slope and b is y intersect. We can read from our transformed equation that slope a= $-\frac{5}{3}$ and its the result

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

22 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Sean has 2 3/4 candy bars. That is 11/4 candy bars.

He wants to give out 1/8 candy bars.

The number of people that will get candy is:

$\frac{11}{4} / \frac{1}{8}\\ \\= \frac{\frac{11}{4} }{\frac{1}{8}} \\\\\frac{11}{4} * \frac{8}{1} \\\\22$

22 people can get candy.

Marą purchased a cell

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer: $28.30✔️

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C = cost before tax

Cell phone costs = C + C·6% = $30

C(1 + 0.06) = $30

C = $30/1.06 = $28.30

Answer: $28.30✔️

<h3> Verify </h3>

Cell phone after tax = $28.30 + $28.30·6/100 = $28.30 + $1.70 = $30✔️

A study by the National Athletic Trainers Association surveyed random samples of 1679 high school freshmen and 1366 high school

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

We conclude that there is no significant difference in the proportion of all Illinois high school freshmen and seniors who have used anabolic steroids.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a study by the National Athletic Trainers Association surveyed random samples of 1679 high school freshmen and 1366 high school seniors in Illinois.

Results showed that 34 of the freshmen and 24 of the seniors had used anabolic steroids.

Let $p_1$ = proportion of Illinois high school freshmen who have used anabolic steroids.

$p_2$ = proportion of Illinois high school seniors who have used anabolic steroids.

SO, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $p_1=p_2$ {means that there is no significant difference in the proportion of all Illinois high school freshmen and seniors who have used anabolic steroids}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $p_1\neq p_2$ {means that there is a significant difference in the proportion of all Illinois high school freshmen and seniors who have used anabolic steroids}

The test statistics that would be used here Two-sample z test for proportions;

T.S. = $\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p_1$ = sample proportion of high school freshmen who have used anabolic steroids = $\frac{34}{1679}$ = 0.0203

$\hat p_2$ = sample proportion of high school seniors who have used anabolic steroids = $\frac{24}{1366}$ = 0.0176

$n_1$ = sample of high school freshmen = 1679

$n_2$ = sample of high school seniors = 1366

So, the test statistics = $\frac{(0.0203-0.0176)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.0203(1-0.0203)}{1679}+\frac{0.0176(1-0.0176)}{1366} } }$

= 0.545

The value of z test statistics is 0.545.

Since, in the question we are not given with the level of significance so we assume it to be 5%. Now, at 5% significance level the z table gives critical values of -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test.

Since our test statistic lies within the range of critical values of z, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that there is no significant difference in the proportion of all Illinois high school freshmen and seniors who have used anabolic steroids.
