The equation of line parallel toy=-\frac{1}{5} x +7 and containing the point(-10,-3) is y=-\frac{1}{5}x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write the equation parallel to y=-\frac{1}{5} x +7 and containing the point(-10,-3)

The standard form of point slope equation is:

y=mx+b

where m is slope and b is y-intercept

Comparing the given equation  y=-\frac{1}{5} x +7 with standard form the slope is m= -1/5

Since the lines are parallel the slope of new line is m = -1/5

Now finding b (y-intercept)

Using slope m=-1/5 and point (-10,-3)

y=mx+b\\-3=-\frac{1}{5}(-10)+b\\-3=2+b\\b=-3-2\\b=-5

So, b= -5 and slope = -1/5 the equation of new line is:

y = mx+b\\y=-\frac{1}{5}x-5

So, The equation of line parallel toy=-\frac{1}{5} x +7 and containing the point(-10,-3) is y=-\frac{1}{5}x-5

Vicki is 5 years older than twice Ella's age, a.
Anettt [7]

Answer:

5+3a=29

Step-by-step explanation:

let Ella's age be 'a'

Vicki's age=5+2a

sum of their ages= 29

So, the equation is

  (5+2a)+a=29

       5+3a=29

<em>hope this helps!</em>

Costs are rising for all kinds of medical care. The mean monthly rent at assisted-living facilities was reported to have increas
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) The 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3387.63, $3584.37).

b) The 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3368.5, $3603.5).

c) The 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3330.66, $3641.34).

d) The confidence level is how sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, the higher the confidence level, more sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, as the confidence level is increased, the width of the interval increases, which is reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Develop a 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent.

Our sample size is 120.

The first step to solve this problem is finding our degrees of freedom, that is, the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 120-1 = 119

Then, we need to subtract one by the confidence level \alpha and divide by 2. So:

\frac{1-0.90}{2} = \frac{0.10}{2} = 0.05

Now, we need our answers from both steps above to find a value T in the t-distribution table. So, with 119 and 0.05 in the t-distribution table, we have T = 1.6578.

Now, we find the standard deviation of the sample. This is the division of the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size. So

s = \frac{650}{\sqrt{120}} = 59.34

Now, we multiply T and s

M = T*s = 59.34*1.6578 = 98.37

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 3486 - 98.37 = $3387.63.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 3486 + 98.37 = $3584.37.

The 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3387.63, $3584.37).

b) Develop a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent.

Now we have that \alpha = 0.95

So

\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.025

With 119 and 0.025 in the t-distribution table, we have T = 1.9801.

M = T*s = 59.34*1.9801 = 117.50

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 3486 - 117.50 = $3368.5.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 3486 + 117.50 = $3603.5.

The 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3368.5, $3603.5).

c) Develop a 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent.

Now we have that \alpha = 0.99

So

\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.005

With 119 and 0.025 in the t-distribution table, we have T = 2.6178.

M = T*s = 59.34*2.6178 = 155.34

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 3486 - 155.34 = $3330.66.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 3486 + 155.34 = $3641.34.

The 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3330.66, $3641.34).

d) What happens to the width of the confidence interval as the confidence level is increased? Does this seem reasonable? Explain.

The confidence level is how sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, the higher the confidence level, more sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, as the confidence level is increased, the width of the interval increases, which is reasonable.

Answer:

232.045

Step-by-step explanation:

217 + 253 + 214 + 247 + 217 + 253 + 232 + 246 + 223 + 227 + 229 + 247 + 206 + 241 + 239 + 223 + 222 + 216 + 252 + 209 + 236 + 256 = 5105

5105 / 22 = 232.045454545
