<span>A. 40.  The formula </span><span>y = kx² is the problem being presented y = 1,000  and x = 5. Plug in the values to solve 
1000 = k * 5^2  (square 5 to get)
1000 = k*25   
divide both sides by 25
1000/25 = 40
40 = k</span>

Suppose that a jewelry store tracked the amount of emeralds they sold each week to more accurately estimate how many emeralds to
denpristay [2]

Answer: The point estimate for the mean is <u>2.59</u> and the margin of error is <u>0.13</u> .

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\mu\pm E, where E is the margin of error .

Given : At the end of one year, the store used the weekly sales information to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean number of emeralds sold per week.

The confidence interval they calculated was (2.46,2.72) .

The lower limit of the confidence interval : \mu-E=2.46                 (1)

The upper limit of the interval :  \mu+E=2.72                                 (2)

Adding (1) and (2) , we get

2\mu=5.18\\\\\Rightarrow\mu=2.59

Now, Subtracting (1) from (2) , we get

2E =0.26\\\\\Rightarrow\ E=0.13

Hence, the point estimate for the mean is 2.59 and the margin of error is 0.13 .

Which equation represents the line that passes through the point (-9, -3) and has a slope of -6?
NISA [10]

Answer:

y = -6x - 57

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a line passes through the point (-9, -3) and has a slope of -6

We want to write the equation of this line.

There are 3 ways to write the equation of the line, with the most common way being slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

As we are already given the slope of the line, we can immediately plug that in the equation for m

Substitute m with -6.

y = -6x + b

Now we need to find b

As the equation passes through the point (-9, -3), we can use its values to help solve for b.

Substitute -9 as x and -3 as y.

-3 = -6(-9) + b

Multiply

-3 = 54 + b

Subtract 54 from both sides

-57 = b

Substitute -57 as b in the equation.

y = -6x - 57
