Hey there!
Line passes through (4, -1) & is parallel to 2x -3y=9
Let's start off by identifying what our slope is. In the slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we know that "m" is our slope.
The given equation needs to be converted into slope-intercept form and we can do this by getting y onto its own side of the equal sign.
Start off by subtracting 2x from both sides.
-3y = -2x + 9
Then, divide both sides by -3.
y = (-2x + 9)/-3
Simplify.
y = 2/3x - 3
"M" is simply a place mat so if we look at our given line, the "m" value is 2/3. Therefore, our slope is 2/3.
We should also note that we're looking for a line that's parallel to the given one. This means that our new line has the same slope as our given line. Therefore, our new line has a slope of 2/3.
Now, we use point-slope form ( y-y₁=m(x-x₁) ) to complete our task of finding a line that passes through (4, -1). Our new slope is 2/3 & it passes through (4, -1).
y-y₁=m(x-x₁)
Let's start by plugging in 2/3 for m (our new slope), 4 for x1 and -1 for y1.
y - (-1) = 2/3(x - 4)
Simplify.
y + 1 = 2/3 + 8/3
Simplify by subtracting 1 from both sides.
y = 2/3x + 8/3 - 1
Simplify.
y = 2/3x + 5/3
~Hope I helped!~
Answer:
The confidence interval at this level of confidence is between 5.4455 and 12.3545.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our 
level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 
.
So it is z with a pvalue of 
, so 
Now, find M as such
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample, which is also called standard error. So
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 8.9 - 3.4545 = 5.4455
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 8.9 + 3.4545 = 12.3545
The confidence interval at this level of confidence is between 5.4455 and 12.3545.
<span>To find out what percent 7 out of 20 is, we
need to ask: 7 out of 20 is how many out of 100? 5 groups of 20 make
100, so 7 out of 20 is 35 out of 100 (5 x 7 out of 5 x 20). Therefore 7/20 equals 35%, or 0.35 if we represent it as a decimal. I hope this helps</span>
