What's an equation that the passes through (-6,4) and is parallel to y=1/2x+8

Mathematics

By definition, if two lines share the same gradient, they are said to be parallel. So, we know for this equation, it must have a gradient of 1/2.

Now, since the point (-6, 4) passes through the line, we know it must satisfy the equation. Since we have a gradient/slope and a point, we can use the point-gradient form:

y - y_1 = \frac{1}{2}(x - x_1), where (x_1, y_1) represents the points being passed through.

y - 4 = \frac{1}{2}(x + 6)
2y - 8 = x + 6
2y = x + 14
y = \frac{1}{2}x + 7

diamong [38]

Answer:

p_v= 0.01

Since the significance level is 0.05 we see that pv so we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis. And the best conclusion for this case would be:

b. at least some, but not all, of the gestation periods across all four species are the same

Because is only to identify if AT LEAST one mean is different, NOT to conclude that the all the means are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) "is used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample".  

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"  

Solution to the problem

The hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_{A}=\mu_{B}=\mu_{C}= \mu_D

Alternative hypothesis: Not all the means are equal \mu_{i}\neq \mu_{j}, i,j=A,B,C,D

In order to find the mean square between treatments (MSTR), we need to find first the sum of squares and the degrees of freedom.

If we assume that we have p=4 groups and on each group from j=1,\dots,p we have n_j individuals on each group we can define the following formulas of variation:  

SS_{total}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x)^2  

SS_{between}=SS_{model}=\sum_{j=1}^p n_j (\bar x_{j}-\bar x)^2  

SS_{within}=SS_{error}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x_j)^2  

And we have this property  

SST=SS_{between}+SS_{within}  

And in order to test this hypothesis we need to ue an F statistic and for this case the p value calculated is

p_v= 0.01

Since the significance level is 0.05 we see that pv so we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis. And the best conclusion for this case would be:

b. at least some, but not all, of the gestation periods across all four species are the same

Because is only to identify if AT LEAST one mean is different NOT to conclude that the all the means are different.

Verify that the function satisfies the three hypotheses of Rolle's Theorem on the given interval. Then find all numbers c that s
valkas [14]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Rolle's Theorem states that:

If f is a continuous function in [a,b] and is differentiable in (a,b)

such that f(a)=f(b)

Then there exist a constant c in between a and b i.e. c∈[a,b]

such that:  f'(c)=0

Here we have the function f(x) as:

f(x)=4x^2-8x+3 where x∈[-1,3]

  • Since the function f(x) is a polynomial function hence it is continuous as well as differentiable over the interval [-1,3].

Also,

f(-1)=15

(Since,

f(-1)=4\times (-1)^2-8\times (-1)+3\\\\f(-1)=4+8+3\\\\f(-1)=15   )

and f(3)=15

( Since,

f(3)=4\times 3^2-8\times 3+3\\\\f(3)=36-24+3\\\\i.e.\\\\f(3)=15 )

  • i.e. f(-1)=f(3)

Hence, there will exist a c∈[-1,3] such that f'(c)=0

f'(x)=8x-8\\\\i.e.\\\\f'(x)=0\\\\imply\\\\8x-8=0\\\\i.e.\\\\x-1=0\\\\i.e.\\\\x=1

Hence, the c that satisfy the conclusion is: c=1
