Answer: The second choice is answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>The first line (Blue One)</h3>

y=-x-3 (Slope is -1 and intercepts y at -3)

<h3>The second one (Red One)</h3>

y=2x-8 (Slope is 2, to find y-intercept. Substitute x = 0 then we get -8) (For x-intercept, it's 4. Just substitute y=0 to get x-intercept.)

Because there are choices, it's easy to notice.

The first one, x = -4 and almost -5 which is not right. (x is around 1 almost 2.)

The second one, x = 1 and almost 2 is right.

The third one, x = -1 and almost -2 is not right (The intersection isn't even at -1 or any negative number for x-axis.)

The fourth one, just like the first one... x = 4 almost 5

<h3>Or solve the equations.</h3>

y=-x-3\\y=2x-8

Substitute y=2x-8 in y=-x-3

2x-8=-x-3\\2x-8+x+3=0\\3x-5=0\\3x=5\\x=\frac{5}{3}\\(x=1\frac{2}{3})

Look at the value of x then find the answer that matches the value of x.

Now for y, substitute x = 5/3 in y = -x-3 (or in 2x-8 if you want.)

y=-\frac{5}{3} -3\\y=-\frac{5}{3} -\frac{9}{3} \\y=-\frac{14}{3} \\(y=-4\frac{2}{3} )

So the answer is the second choice.

kolezko [41]

Let the number = x

Then, it would be: (x*36)/100 = 108

x*36 = 10800

x = 10800/36

x = 300

If the mean is 298 and standard deviation is 22 what is the probability that a random sample of 42 pregnancies has a mean gestat
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The probability is 0.9909.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test statistic (z) = (sample mean - population mean) ÷ (sd/√n)

sample mean = 290 days

population mean = 298 days

sd = 22 days

n = 42

z = (290 - 298) ÷ (22/√42) = -8 ÷ 3.395 = -2.36

The cumulative area of the test statistic is the probability that the mean gestation period is less than 290 days. The cumulative area is 0.9909. Therefore the probability is 0.9909.
