Answer:

the slope of the given line is -8

Step-by-step explanation:

(6,9) and (7,1)

To find the slope of the given line we use formula

$slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

the value of x1 is 6 and y1 is 9

the value x2 is 7 and y2 is 1

plug in the value in the slope formula

$slope = \frac{1-9}{7-6}=\frac{-8}{1}=-8$

the slope of the given line is -8

What is the solution to the equation below? √x - 4 = -2 O A. X=& O B. X=4 X = 4 C. x = 6 D. X = 2

Answer:

x = 4

Explanation:

Given the expression;

$\sqrt[]{x}-4\text{ = -2}$

Add 4 to both sides

$\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{x}-4+4\text{ = -2+4} \\ \sqrt[]{x}=\text{ 2} \end{gathered}$

Square both sides

$\begin{gathered} (\sqrt[]{x})^2=2^2 \\ x\text{ = 4} \end{gathered}$

Hence the value of x is 4

X-1.6=2.4+0.8x solve for x. <br><br>What did I do wrong?

trapecia [35]

$\bf x-1.6=2.4+0.8x\implies \stackrel{\textit{subtracting 2.4}}{x-4=0.8x}\implies \stackrel{\textit{subtracting x}}{-4=0.8x-x} \\\\\\ -4=-0.2x\implies \cfrac{-4}{-0.2}=x\implies 20=x$

Answer:

standard error of the mean = 1.6960

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

Mean $(\overline{X})$ = 53 minutes

Standard deviation ( s ) = 53.9 minutes

n = 1010

standard error of the mean =

$\sigma _{\overline{X}}$ = $\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

= $\frac{53.9}{\sqrt{1010}}$

= 1.6960
