Answer:
multiply
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as
y = mx + c
Where
m represents slope
c represents y intercept
The equation of the given line is expressed as
3x - 6y = 30
Rearranging it so that it will look like the slope intercept form, it becomes
6y = 3x - 30
Dividing both sides by 6, it becomes
6y/6 = 3x/6 - 30/6
y = x/2 - 5
Looking at the equation, slope, m = 1/2
If two lines are parallel, it means that they have equal slope. This means that the slope of the line parallel to the given line is 1/2
To determine the y intercept, c of the line passing through the point (4, - 9), we would substitute
x = 4, y = - 9 and m = 1/2 into the slope intercept equation. It becomes
- 9 = 1/2 * 4 + c
- 9 = 2 + c
c = - 9 - 2
c = - 11
By substtuting m = 1/2 and c = - 11 into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the line would be
y = x/2 - 11
Solution:
<u>Convert the fractions into improper fractions and solve.</u>
- 9 1/2 ÷ 3 7/10
- => 19/2 ÷ 37/10
- => 19/2 x 10/37
- => 19 x 5/37
- => 95/37
<u>Convert the fraction into mixed fraction (Not required):</u>
- => 95/37 = 37/37 + 37/37 + 21/37
- => 1 + 1 + 21/37
- => 2 + 21/37
- => 2 21/37
The solution to the problem is 2 21/37.
Answer:
CI = 21 ± 0.365
Step-by-step explanation:
The confidence interval is:
CI = x ± SE * CV
where x is the sample mean, SE is the standard error, and CV is the critical value (either t score or z score).
Here, x = 21.
The standard error for a sample mean is:
SE = σ / √n
SE = 3.2 / √510
SE = 0.142
The critical value is looked up in a table or found with a calculator. But first, we must find the alpha level and the critical probability.
α = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01
p* = 1 - (α/2) = 1 - (0.01/2) = 0.995
Using a calculator or a z-score table:
P(x<z) = 0.995
z = 2.576
Therefore:
CI = 21 ± 0.142 × 2.576
CI = 21 ± 0.365
Round as needed.
