What is the slope of line segment AB? A) 2/3 B) 3/4 C) 4/3 D) -3/4

Lunna [17]

For this case we have that by definition, the slope of a line is given by:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}$

Where:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1})$ and $(x_ {2}, y_ {2})$ are two points through which the line passes.

According to the image we have:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (-5,3)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (3, -3)$

Substituting we have:

$m = \frac {-3-3} {3 - (- 5)} = \frac {-6} {3 + 5} = \frac {-6} {8} = - \frac {3} {4}$

Thus, the slope of the line is:

$m = - \frac {3} {4}$

Answer:

$m = - \frac {3} {4}$

Ten engineering schools in the United States were surveyed. The sample contained 250 electrical engineers, 80 being women; 175 c

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

There is a significant difference between the two proportions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for difference between population proportions is:

$CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}$

Compute the sample proportions as follows:

$\hat p_{1}=\frac{80}{250}=0.32\\\\\hat p_{2}=\frac{40}{175}=0.23$

The critical value of z for 90% confidence interval is:

$z_{0.10/2}=z_{0.05}=1.645$

Compute a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of women in these two fields of engineering as follows:

$CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}$

$=(0.32-0.23)\pm 1.645\times\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{250}+\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{175}}\\\\=0.09\pm 0.0714\\\\=(0.0186, 0.1614)\\\\\approx (0.02, 0.16)$

There will be no difference between the two proportions if the 90% confidence interval consists of 0.

But the 90% confidence interval does not consists of 0.

Thus, there is a significant difference between the two proportions.

Devaughn is 13 years younger than Sydney. The sum of their ages is 75 . What is Sydney's age?

barxatty [35]

S= Sydney
devaughn= s-13

so s+s-13=75
2s-13=75
now I think you can solve the rest.
