Distance between the points (-3,5) and (-1,-2)

A line passes through (2,8) and (4,12) which equation best represents the line

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

y=2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:\solving for the slope you get (12-8)/(4-2)=4/2=2

solving for the y intercept you subtract 4 from 8 because 2*2 is 4 and (2,8) is 2 x values away from the y intercept so 8-4=4 so the y intercept is 4

so y=2x+4

Austin is 69 years younger than Jamie. 3 years ago, Jamie's age was 4 times Austin's age. How old is Austin now?

matrenka [14]

Answer: 26 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation with Austin as x and Jamie as x+69 (I just like workin with addition signs more)= 4(x-3)= x+69-3
Simplify the equations --> 4x-12=x+66
Solve the equation: 3x-12=66 --> 3x=78 --> x=26

This is the same as other age problems, just with the extra step of distributing the multiplication.

Do political science classes require less writing than history classes? The 55 randomly selected political science classes assig

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

No, political science classes does not require less writing than history classes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the 55 randomly selected political science classes assigned an average of 19.6 pages of essay writing for the course. The standard deviation for these 55 classes was 4.8 pages.

The 50 randomly selected history classes assigned an average of 20.2 pages of essay writing for the course. The standard deviation for these 50 classes was 3.3 pages.

Let $\mu_1$ = mean writing required by political science classes

$\mu_2$ = mean writing required by history classes

SO, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu_1-\mu_2\geq0$ or $\mu_1\geq \mu_2$ {means that political science classes require more or equal writing than history classes}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu_1-\mu_2$ or $\mu_1$ {means that political science classes require less writing than history classes}

The test statistics that will be used here is Two-sample t test statistics as we don't know about the population standard deviations;

T.S. = $\frac{(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2} } }$ ~ $t__n__1+_n__2-2$

where, $\bar X_1$ = sample average writing for political science course= 19.6 pages

$\bar X_2$ = sample average writing for history course= 20.2 pages

$s_1$ = sample standard deviation for political science classes = 4.8 pages

$s_2$ = sample standard deviation for history classes = 3.3 pages

$n_1$ = sample of selected political science classes = 55

$n_2$ = sample of selected history classes = 50

Also, $s_p=\sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)s_1^{2}+(n_2-1)s_2^{2} }{n_1+n_2-2} }$ = $\sqrt{\frac{(55-1)\times 4.8^{2}+(50-1)\times 3.3^{2} }{55+50-2} }$ = 4.154

So, the test statistics = $\frac{(19.6-20.2)-(0)}{4.154 \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{55}+\frac{1}{50} } }$ ~ $t_1_0_3$

= -0.739

Now at 0.01 significance level, the t table gives critical value of -2.367 at 103 degree of freedom for left-tailed test. Since our test statistics is more than the critical value of t as -0.739 > -2.367, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that political science classes require more or equal writing than history classes.
