Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean of a data set is synonymous with the average. To find the mean, add up all the values in the data set and then divide by the number of elements.
From the table, there is 12 values. Thus, add up all the 12 values and then divide by 12:
Simplify:
Reduce:
Therefore, the mean of the data set is 3/4.
For the data set, this means that the average person guesses the temperature too high by about 3/4°F.
(Note: the symbol of x with a bar over it denotes the mean of a set)
Rent and electricity = 5x + 11
rent = 2x - 3
electricity = (5x + 11) - (2x - 3)
electricity = 5x + 11 - 2x + 3
electricity = 3x + 14

Answer: 3x + 11

R=1/2*d
r=1/2*9
r=4.5 inches
You will be using the equation y = mx + b
The only variables you need to find are "m" and "b"
For the equation of a line to be perpendicular to the given line, the slope will have to be the opposite of the given slope. Or you have to flip the sign and the number of the given slope to get your new slope.
For example:
m = -2
perpendicular slope = 1/2(positive)
m = 3/4
perpendicular slope = -4/3(negative)
The slope of the line is -1.5 or -3/2
Your new slope is 2/3
y = 2/3x + b
To find "b", you plug in the point (2,0) into the equation.
0 = 2/3(2) + b
0 = 4/3 + b
-4/3 = b
Your new equation is y = 2/3x - 4/3
