Y=3.5x
Pts are (1,3.5),(2,7),(3,10.5)
Percent decrease : (original number - new number) / original number...x 100
percent decrease = (25 - 18) / 25....x 100
percent decrease = 7/25 * 100
percent decrease = 700/25 = 28%
Answer:
a) For this case we can use the definition of weighted average given by:

And if we replace the values given we have:

b) 
c) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the following question: "One sample has a mean of M=8 and a second sample has a mean of M=16 . The two samples are combined into a single set of scores.
a) What is the mean for the combined set if both of the original samples have n=4 scores
"
For this case we can use the definition of weighted average given by:

And if we replace the values given we have:

b) what is the mean for the combined set if the first sample has n=3 and the second sample has n=5
Using the definition we have:

c) what is the mean for the combined set if the first sample has n=5 and the second sample has n=3
Using the definition we have:

Answer:
The line passes (2, 5) and (4, 7) has slope:
S = (7 - 5)/(4 - 2) = 2/2 = 1
The line passes (1, 7) and (-4, 2) has slope:
S = (2 - 7)/(-4 - 4) = 5/-5 = -1
The multiplication of two slope is 1 x (-1) = -1
=> Two lines are perpendicular
Hope this helps!
