4|3x - 1| + 1 = 8

4|3x - 1| = 8 - 1

4|3x - 1| = 7

|3x - 1| = 7/4

Now lets think, we have 3x - 1 in module, so either its 7/4 or -7/4, we will have 7/4 at the end because of it, so we may have 2 solutions in this case:

3x - 1 = 7/4

and

3x - 1 = -7/4

So let's see:

3x - 1 = 7/4

3x = 7/4 + 1

3x = 11/4

x = 11/12

3x - 1 = -7/4

3x = -7/4 + 1

3x = -3/4

x = -1/4

So we have two possible answers, x = 11/2 and x = -1/4

Enter an inequality that represents the graph in the box.

ANTONII [103]

The inequality that represents the graph in the box is

$y>-3x+6$

Given :

The graph of the linear inequality

Lets pick two points from the graph to frame the linear equation

Slope intercept form of the equation is

$y=mx+b$

Where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y intercept is (0,6) from the graph

so b=6

Now we find out slope m using formula

Pick two points (0,6) and (2,0)

$slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\m=\frac{0-6}{2-0} =-3$

m=-3

So the equation is $y=-3x+6$

Now we check the inequality sign by testing any point on shaded area

lets pick (4,0)

lets plug in 4 for x and 0 for y

$y=-3x+6\\0=-3(4)+6\\\\0=-6\\0>-6$

The inequality for the given graph is

$y>-3x+6$

we cannot use >= sign because we have dotted lines

Answer:

$=1.17-3.99a$

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.17-0.07a+\left(-3.92a\right)$

$=1.17-0.07a-3.92a$

$=1.17-3.99a$

A small independent organic food store offers a variety of specialty coffees. To determine whether price has an impact on sales,

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

b= -4.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We have to study variables:

Y: Monthly coffe sales

X: Price per pound of coffe ($)

The estimate regression line is

^Yi= a + bxi ∀ (i=1,.....,10)

The slope of the estimated regression line is represented by b.

The formula I'll use to calculate it is:

b= [n∑xiyi -(∑xi)*(∑yi)]/ n∑xi²-(∑xi)²

To calculate b we need to do some auxiliary calculations:

∑xiyi= 4213.15

∑xi= 87.47

∑yi= 545

∑xi²= 883.3703

Then we replace the formula:

b= [10*4213.15-(87.47)*(545)]/ n883.3703-(87.47)²

b= -4.68

I hope you have a SUPER day!
