Answer:

y = -1.5x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope using rise over run, (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are points on the line

Plug in the points:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(3 + 6) / (-4 - 2)

9 / -6

3/-2 or -1.5

Then, plug in the slope and a point into y = mx + b to find b:

y = mx + b

-6 = -1.5(2) + b

-6 = -3 + b

-3 = b

Plug in the slope and b into y = mx + b

y = -1.5x - 3 is the equation

Answer:

y = -3/2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Slope Formula: m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Step 1: Find slope <em>m</em>

<em />m=\frac{3-(-6)}{-4-2}<em />

<em />m=\frac{3+6}{-6}<em />

<em />m=\frac{9}{-6}<em />

<em />m=\frac{-3}{2}<em />

y = -3/2x + b

Step 2: Find y-intercept <em>b</em>

3 = -3/2(-4) + b

3 = 6 + b

b = -3

Step 3: Rewrite linear equation

y = -3/2x - 3

An engineer is comparing voltages for two types of batteries (K and Q) using a sample of 83 type K batteries and a sample of 77
agasfer [191]

Answer:

1. Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu_1 = \mu_2  {mean voltage for these two types of

                                                         batteries is same}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_1 : \mu_1\neq \mu_2 {mean voltage for these two types of

                                                            batteries is different]

2. Test Statistics value = -5.06

4. Decision for the hypothesis test is that we will reject null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an engineer is comparing voltages for two types of batteries (K and Q).

where, \mu_1 = true mean voltage for type K batteries.

            \mu_2 = true mean voltage for type Q batteries.

So, <em>Null Hypothesis, </em>H_0<em> : </em>\mu_1 = \mu_2<em>  {mean voltage for these two types of </em>

<em>                                                          batteries is same}</em>

<em>Alternate Hypothesis, </em>H_1<em> : </em>\mu_1\neq \mu_2<em> {mean voltage for these two types of </em>

<em>                                                             batteries is different]</em>

The test statistics we use here will be :

                          \frac{(X_1bar-X_2bar) - (\mu_1 - \mu_2) }{s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}  } }   follows t_n__1+n_2-2

where, X_1bar = 9.29         and      X_2bar =  9.65

                s_1    = 0.374       and             s_2 =  0.518

                 n_1   = 83            and             n_2  =  77

                  s_p = \sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)s_1^{2}+(n_2-1)s_2^{2}  }{n_1+n_2-2} } =   \sqrt{\frac{(83-1)0.374^{2}+(77-1)0.518^{2}  }{83+77-2} } = 0.45                                                   Here, we use t test statistics because we know nothing about population standard deviations.

      Test statistics = \frac{(9.29-9.65) - 0 }{0.45\sqrt{\frac{1}{83}+\frac{1}{77}  } }  follows t_1_5_8

                              = -5.06

<em>At 0.05 or 5% level of significance t table gives a critical value between (-1.98,-1.96) to (1.98,1.96) at 158 degree of freedom. Since our test statistics is less than the critical table value of t as -5.06 < (-1.98,-1.96) so we have sufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis.</em>

Therefore, we conclude that mean voltage for these two types of batteries is different.

Missy has 4 times as many trading cards as her friends Ashe and Caleb combined. Ashe
diamong [38]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

Missy has 156 cards in total. Since we know she has 4 times as many as them, we divide 156 by 4

156/4= 39

Ashe has 17 cards and we still don't know how many Caleb has. Since we know that they have 39 cards together, we need to subtract Ashe's cards to find how many Caleb has

39-17=22

Let's check our work

Caleb has 22 cards

Ashe has 17 cards

Together they have 39

Which is 4 times less than how many cards Missy has

Missy has 156 cards

We are correct!
