Write the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, that contains the points (-1,-2) and (1,2)

1 answer:

4 0

Slope intercept is y=mx+b
m=slope
slope if found by
m=(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
(x,y)
(-1,-2) and
(1,2)
x1=-1
y1=-2
x2=1
y2=2

m=(-1-1)/(-2-2)
m=-2/-4
m=1/2

y=1/2x+b
solve fo by subsituting one x value
(1,2)
x=1
y=2
2=1/2(1)+b
2=1/2+b
subtract 1/2
3/2=b

equation is
y=1/2x+3/2

A study is conducted to determine whether a new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by at least 30 days for a certain t

anygoal [31]

Answer:

H0: The new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days

Ha: The new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 or more than 30 days.

If fail to reject H0 (the null hypothesis), the conclusion is that the new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is a statement from a population parameter which is either rejected or accepted (fail to reject) upon testing. It is expressed using the equality sign.

The alternate hypothesis is also a statement from a population parameter which negates the null hypothesis and is accepted if the null hypothesis is rejected. It is expressed using any of the inequality signs.

The test is a two-tailed test because the alternate hypothesis is expressed using more than or equal to.

If I fail to reject H0, it means the test statistic falls within the region bounded by the critical values.

It would therefore be concluded that the new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days.

121 slabs . How many slabs will she need to lay in each row to make a square

netineya [11]

She needs to lay 11 slabs on each row to make a square

<h3>How to determine the number of slabs in each row?</h3>

The total number of slabs is given as:

Total = 121 slabs

Let this represent the area of the slab.

The area of a square is calculated as:

Area = Length^2

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Length^2 = 121

Take the square root of both sides

Length = 11

Hence, she needs to lay 11 slabs on each row to make a square
