Answers:

  • R = -3
  • S = -3
  • T = -9

For each row, you're adding the values of 'a' and 'b'. The first row has 1+2 = 3.

When adding two negatives, add the positive versions of each number, then make the result negative. So -1 + (-2) can be thought of as 1+2 = 3, then you make everything negative.

When adding a negative to a positive, you'll subtract the positive version of each number. The final result is positive if the larger absolute value is positive, or otherwise it's negative. We have -4+1 that can be thought of as 4-1 = 3, but since the '4' is larger and it is negative, this means -4+1 = -3.

Which line is parallel to the line<br> shown below?
Travka [436]
<h3>Answer:  Choice D</h3>

4x - 3y = 15

====================================================

Explanation:

The two points (-1,-1) and (2,3) are marked on the line

Let's find the slope of the line through those two points.

(x_1,y_1) = (-1,-1) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2)  = (2,3)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{3 - (-1)}{2 - (-1)}\\\\m = \frac{3 + 1}{2 + 1}\\\\m = \frac{4}{3}\\\\

The slope is 4/3 meaning we go up 4 and to the right 3.

-------------

Parallel lines have equal slopes, but different y intercepts. We'll need to see which of the four answer choices have a slope of 4/3.

Solve the equation in choice A for y. The goal is to get it into y = mx+b form so we can determine the slope m.

3x + 4y = -4\\\\4y = -3x-4\\\\y = -\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{4}{4}\\\\y = -\frac{3}{4}x-1

Equation A has a slope of -3/4 and not 4/3 like we want.

Therefore, this answer choice is crossed off the list.

Follow similar steps for choices B through D. I'll show the slopes of each so you can check your work.

  • slope of equation B is 3/4
  • slope of equation C is -4/3
  • slope of equation D is 4/3

We have a match with equation D. Therefore, the equation 4x-3y = 15 is parallel to the given line shown in the graph.

You can use graphing tools like Desmos or GeoGebra to confirm the answer.

2ft and 3 in how much inches
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

2ft and 3 in how much inches

There are 12 inches in a foot

Since we have 2 feet we multiple 12 x 2

This gives us 24 inches

But we also have 3 extra inches

24 + 3 = 27 inches

With a height of 68 ​in, Nelson was the shortest president of a particular club in the past century. The club presidents of the
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

a. The positive difference between Nelson's height and the population mean is: \\ \lvert 68-70.7 \rvert = \lvert 70.7-68 \rvert\;in = 2.7\;in.

b. The difference found in part (a) is 1.174 standard deviations from the mean (without taking into account if the height is above or below the mean).

c. Nelson's z-score: \\ z = -1.1739 \approx -1.174 (Nelson's height is <em>below</em> the population's mean 1.174 standard deviations units).

d. Nelson's height is <em>usual</em> since \\ -2 < -1.174 < 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The key concept to answer this question is the z-score. A <em>z-score</em> "tells us" the distance from the population's mean of a raw score in <em>standard deviation</em> units. A <em>positive value</em> for a z-score indicates that the raw score is <em>above</em> the population mean, whereas a <em>negative value</em> tells us that the raw score is <em>below</em> the population mean. The formula to obtain this <em>z-score</em> is as follows:

\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} [1]

Where

\\ z is the <em>z-score</em>.

\\ \mu is the <em>population mean</em>.

\\ \sigma is the <em>population standard deviation</em>.

From the question, we have that:

  • Nelson's height is 68 in. In this case, the raw score is 68 in \\ x = 68 in.
  • \\ \mu = 70.7in.
  • \\ \sigma = 2.3in.

With all this information, we are ready to answer the next questions:

a. What is the positive difference between Nelson​'s height and the​ mean?

The positive difference between Nelson's height and the population mean is (taking the absolute value for this difference):

\\ \lvert 68-70.7 \rvert = \lvert 70.7-68 \rvert\;in = 2.7\;in.

That is, <em>the positive difference is 2.7 in</em>.

b. How many standard deviations is that​ [the difference found in part​ (a)]?

To find how many <em>standard deviations</em> is that, we need to divide that difference by the <em>population standard deviation</em>. That is:

\\ \frac{2.7\;in}{2.3\;in} \approx 1.1739 \approx 1.174

In words, the difference found in part (a) is 1.174 <em>standard deviations</em> from the mean. Notice that we are not taking into account here if the raw score, <em>x,</em> is <em>below</em> or <em>above</em> the mean.

c. Convert Nelson​'s height to a z score.

Using formula [1], we have

\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}

\\ z = \frac{68\;in - 70.7\;in}{2.3\;in}

\\ z = \frac{-2.7\;in}{2.3\;in}

\\ z = -1.1739 \approx -1.174

This z-score "tells us" that Nelson's height is <em>1.174 standard deviations</em> <em>below</em> the population mean (notice the negative symbol in the above result), i.e., Nelson's height is <em>below</em> the mean for heights in the club presidents of the past century 1.174 standard deviations units.

d. If we consider​ "usual" heights to be those that convert to z scores between minus2 and​ 2, is Nelson​'s height usual or​ unusual?

Carefully looking at Nelson's height, we notice that it is between those z-scores, because:

\\ -2 < z_{Nelson} < 2

\\ -2 < -1.174 < 2

Then, Nelson's height is <em>usual</em> according to that statement.
