Y=1/2x+c
0=1/2 (10)+c
0=5+c
c=-5

the equation is y=1/2x+5
the slope is the same since these two lines are parallel

Answer:

$m=7w+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear Modeling</u>

It consist is setting up a linear relationship between two variables, given some experimental data. Only 2 points are needed to set up the equation of a line, but if more than 2 points are used, then the result should use statistical approaches like linear regression to find the best-fit line.

For the question at hand, Marty practices his piano lessons 11 minutes the week #1. It provides the first point (1,11). He practices 25 minutes per day on the third week. It gives us another point (3,25). This is enough to find the equation of a line. The general formula for a line, having two points (m1,w1) (m2,w2) is

$\displaystyle m-m_1=\frac{m_2-m_1}{w_2-w_1}(w-w_1)$

Let's plug in our values

$\displaystyle m-11=\frac{25-11}{3-1}(w-1)$

Simplifying:

$m-11=7w-7$

$\boxed{m=7w+4}$

Which of the following best represents the highest potential for nonresponse bias in a sampling strategy? Describe why this opti

Answer:

c. Asking people leaving a local election to take part in an exit poll

Step-by-step explanation:

Asking people leaving a local election to take part in an exit poll best represents the highest potential for nonresponse bias in a sampling strategy because of the importance of the local election compared to the exit polls.

It is worthy of note that nonresponse bias occurs when some respondents included in the sample do not respond to the survey. The major difference here is that the error comes from an absence of respondents not the collection of erroneous data. ...

Oftentimes, this form of bias is created by refusals to participate for one reason or another or the inability to reach some respondents.

How to solve inscribed angles

alisha [4.7K]

If it involves an Arc, the inscribed angle is 1/2 of the measure of the are across from it. If the figure inscribed in a quadrilateral, opposite angles are supplementary (when added together equals 180 degrees) This is all I know :)
