Answer:

y = -3x - 19

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes trough (-6,-1)

The line is parallel to line whose equation is 3x + y = -7

Writing the equation of this parallel line in slope intercept form:

y = -3x - 7

Because the two lines are parallel, their slopes are the same.

Since the slope(m) is -3, equation of our first line will be:

Slope(m) = Change in y ÷ change in x

Taking another point (x,y) lying on our first line:

-3 = $\frac{y - -1}{x - -6}$ = $\frac{y + 1}{x + 6}$

Cross multiplying gives;

y + 1 = -3x - 18

y = -3x - 19

Slope-intercept of 5x-7y=-45

bagirrra123 [75]

Slope-intercept form is y=ax+b where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Start by getting y alone on one side.
5x-7y=-45
5x+45=7y
Then divide both sides by 7 to get y alone.
y= 5/7x + 45/7

Set A of six numbers has a standard deviation of 3 and set B of four numbers has a standard deviation of 5. Both sets of numbers

Alenkinab [10]

Given:

$\sigma_A=3$

$n_A=6$

$\sigma_B=5$

$n_B=4$

$\overline{x}_A=\overline{x}_B$

To find:

The variance. of combined set.

Solution:

Formula for variance is

$\sigma^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x})^2}{n}$ ...(i)

Using (i), we get

$\sigma_A^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2}{n_A}$

$(3)^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2}{6}$

$9=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2}{6}$

$54=\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2$

Similarly,

$\sigma_B^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2}{n_B}$

$(5)^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2}{4}$

$25=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2}{4}$

$100=\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2$

Now, after combining both sets, we get

$\sigma^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2+\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2}{n_A+n_B}$

$\sigma^2=\dfrac{54+100}{6+4}$

$\sigma^2=\dfrac{154}{10}$

$\sigma^2=15.4$

Therefore, the variance of combined set is 15.4.
