The points (0,2) and (1,5) are on a line which of these points is on the same line
katrin [286]

Answer:

y = 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for two points on a line is generated from the straight line equation y = mx + b ---------------- eqn (i)

where m, the slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)  

therefore for (0,2) and (1,5) m = (5 - 2)/(1 - 0) = 3

This implies that eqn (i) can be rewritten as:

y = 3x + b ------------------- eqn (ii)

pickintg the point (0,2) and substituting into eqn (ii)

2 = 3(0) + b

this implies that b = 2

for confirmation with (1,5)

5 = 3(1) + b

b = 5 - 3 = 2

hence m = 3, b = 2

the equation is y = 3x + 2

Sarah claims that the thickness of the spearmint gum she produces is 7.5 one-hundredths of an inch. A quality control specialist
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

t=\frac{7.55-7.5}{\frac{0.103}{\sqrt{10}}}=1.539    

p_v =2*P(t_{(9)}>1.539)=0.158  

If we compare the p value and the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to fail reject the null hypothesis.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

Data: 7.65, 7.60, 7.65, 7.7, 7.55, 7.55, 7.4, 7.4, 7.5, 7.5

We can begin calculating the sample mean given by:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

And the sample deviation given by:

s=\sart{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}

And we got:

\bar X=7.55 represent the sample mean

s=0.103 represent the sample standard deviation

n=10 sample size  

\mu_o =7.5 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is equal to 7.5 or no, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu = 7.5  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 7.5  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

t=\frac{7.55-7.5}{\frac{0.103}{\sqrt{10}}}=1.539    

P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=10-1=9  

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(t_{(9)}>1.539)=0.158  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to fail reject the null hypothesis.

Can I get help with this please
drek231 [11]

Answer:

3)  1 5/6 mi

4)  a. 4 cm, 6 ft

    b. 6.4 cm, 9.6 ft

    c. same as part a

Step-by-step explanation:

3) Each of the given distances appears twice in the sum of side measures that is the perimeter. Hence by walking the perimeter twice, Kyle walks each of the given distances 4 times. His total walk is ...

  4×1/3 + 4×1/8 = 4/3 + 4/8

  = 1 1/3 + 1/2 = 1 2/6 + 3/6

  = 1 5/6 . . . . . miles

___

4) Since the figure is rectilinear (all angles are right angles, and all sides are straight lines), the sum of partial dimensions in one direction is equal to the whole dimension in that direction.

a. 8 cm = 4 cm + x

  8 cm - 4 cm = x = 4 cm

The distance in the room is ...

  (4 cm)×(1.5 ft/cm) = 6 ft

b. 10.3 cm = 3.9 cm + y

  10.3 cm - 3.9 cm = y = 6.4 cm

The distance in the room is ...

  (6.4 cm)×(1.5 ft/cm) = 9.6 ft

c. The answer to part b was obtained in the same way as the answer to part a.  The unknown dimension is the difference of given dimensions. The actual length in the room is the model length multiplied by the inverse of the scale factor.

Outside temperature over a day can be modelled as a sinusoidal function. Suppose you know the high temperature for the day is 10
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The function for the outside temperature is represented by T(t) = 85\º + 15\º \cdot \sin \left[\frac{t-6\,h}{24\,h} \right], where t is measured in hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since outside temperature can be modelled as a sinusoidal function, the period is of 24 hours and amplitude of temperature and average temperature are, respectively:

Amplitude

A = \frac{100\º-70\º}{2}

A = 15\º

Mean temperature

\bar T = \frac{70\º+100\º}{2}

\bar T = 85\º

Given that average temperature occurs six hours after the lowest temperature is registered. The temperature function is expressed as:

T(t) = \bar T + A \cdot \sin \left[2\pi\cdot\frac{t-6\,h}{\tau} \right]

Where:

\bar T - Mean temperature, measured in degrees.

A - Amplitude, measured in degrees.

\tau - Daily period, measured in hours.

t - Time, measured in hours. (where t = 0 corresponds with 5 AM).

If \bar T = 85\º, A = 15\º and \tau = 24\,h, the resulting function for the outside temperature is:

T(t) = 85\º + 15\º \cdot \sin \left[\frac{t-6\,h}{24\,h} \right]
