Slope is -2/5 and y-intercept is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write the equation in slope-intercept form y = mx + b

2x + 5y = 10

5y = -2x + 10

y = -2/5 x + 10/5

y = -2/5 x + 2

Step 2: Find the slope and y-intercept from the equation.

Slope, m = -2/5

y-intercept, b = 2

Answer:

(19229.11 ,20770.89)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

Sample size, n = 17

Sample mean = 20,000 pounds

Sample standard deviation = 1,500 pounds

Confidence level = 95%

Significance level = 5% = 0.05

95% Confidence interval:

$\bar{x} \pm t_{critical}\displaystyle\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

Putting the values, we get,

$t_{critical}\text{ at degree of freedom 16 and}~\alpha_{0.05} = \pm 2.119$

$20000 \pm 2.119(\displaystyle\frac{1500}{\sqrt{17}} ) = 20000 \pm 770.89 = (19229.11 ,20770.89)$

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: 89.7 ft

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Find the arc length (s) of the semi-circle. Then divide that length by 7.

s = r · θ where r is the radius and θ is the angle in radians

s = (400 ÷ 2) · π <em>(radius is diameter divided by 2)</em>

= 200π

= 628.3

The length of the arc is 628.3 ft. Divide that by 7 to find the distance between each home.

628.3 ÷ 7 = 89.7
