To find the slope of the line you need to do the change in y/change in x. This is also known as the rise/run. To do this you count the spaces in between the two points.

In this graph the change in y (rise) is 2. The change in x (run) is 8. Since the line is going down they are negative. The rise/run is -2/8. This can be simplified to -1/4.

Slope: -1/4x

How to find the y-intercept

To find the y-intercept, you need to look at where the line crosses y.

In this graph the line crosses y at -1.

Y-intercept: -1

Final equation: -1/4x-1

Maths question on algebraic equations = due in 10 minutes

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

108 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 16 = 3x - 12 (corresponding angles; AB parallel to CD).

16 + 12 = 3x - 2x

x = 28.

So the angle marked 3x - 12 = 3(28) - 12

= 72 degrees.

Angle y is adjacent to the angle so

y = 180 - 72

= 108 degrees.

Sergio [31]

Answer:

B. Yes, there are at least 10 people with weak bones and 10 people with strong bones in each group.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

The correct answer is:

B. Yes, there are at least 10 people with weak bones and 10 people with strong bones in each group.
