Answer:

Y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The line needs to be parallel to the y-axis, which means it forms a 90° angle with the y-axis. This means the line we are looking for is a straight horizontal line. The line must pass through the point (-7, -5), but we can disregard the x value since we figured out that the line is perfecly horizontal, so it has no x value. The answer we are left with is y = -5, which is a horizontal line across -5 on the y axis.

Hopefully you can understand my explanation :)

A magazine provided results from a poll of 500 adults who were asked to identify their favorite pie. Among the 500 respondents,

Answer:

The statement that "the margin of error was given as $\pm5$ percentage points" means that the population proportion is estimated to be with a certain level of confidence, within the interval $\hat{p} \pm 0.05$ ; where $\hat{p}[tex] is the sample's proportion. The correct answer is C. The statement indicates that the interval [tex]0.14\pm0.05$ is likely to contain the true population percentage of people that prefer chocolate pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error for proportions is given by the following formula:

$z_{\alpha /2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}\times(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

Where:

$z_{\alpha /2}$ is the critical value that corresponds to the confidence level; the confidence level being $1-\alpha$ ,

$\hat{p}$ is the sample's proportion of successes,

$n$ is the size of the sample.

In this exercise we have that $\hat{p}=0.14$ and that the margin of error is 0.05.

Therefore if we replace in the formula to calculate the confidence interval we get:

$\hat{p}\pm 0.05=0.14\pm0.05=(0.09, 0.19)$

Which means that the true population proportion is estimated to be, with a certain confidence level, within the interval (0.09, 0.19).

If the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 39 millimeters and the length of one leg is 15 millimeters what is the le

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

36 millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

From Pythagoras theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the two other legs

In mathematical terms;

a^2 = b^2 + c^2

Let a represent the hypotenuse = 39 mm and the length of one leg, say c, is 15 mm

Slotting in the values of a and b

39^2 = b^2 + 15^2

1521 = b^2 + 225

collect like terms

1521 - 225 = b^2

1296 = b^2

Take the square root of both sides

36 = b

Therefore b = 36 mm

There are 75 students performing in the holiday concert. Of the students, 30 are boys. What percent of the students are boys?

viva [34]

Answer:

Total students = 75

Boys = 30

<h3>Percentage</h3>

$\sf \frac{30}{75} \times 100\% \\ \sf= \frac{10}{25} \times 100\% \\ \sf = \boxed{ \bold{ \red{40\%}}}$

Hope it helps!

inna [77]

Answer:

D. It would be less steep

Step-by-step explanation:

The first graph moves at a rate of 5/1 which is a greater fraction than 3/4

The second graph is shallow due to the close points in x and y that are able to be conducted
The first Graph rapidly increases at a way higher rate making it VERY steep
While both are linear the second strays away in terms of plot lines
