Write an equation for each linear function described. Show your work. The graph of the function passes through the point (2,1),

svp [43]

Step-by-step explanation:

As

The graph of the function passes through the point (2,1), and

y increases by 4 when x increases by 1.

so

x y

2 1

3 5

4 9

5 13

6 17

and so on

From the table:

$\mathrm{Slope\:between\:two\:points}:\quad \mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(2,\:1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(3,\:5\right)$

$m=\frac{5-1}{3-2}$

$m=4$

As the slope-intercept form of the line is

$y=mx+b$

putting m=4 and any point, let say (2, 1) to find y-intercept 'b'.

$1=\left(4\right)2+b$

$8+b=1$

$8+b-8=1-8$

$b=-7$

So putting $b=-7$ and $m=4$ in the slope-intercept form of the line

$y=\left(4\right)x+\left(-7\right)$

$y=4x-7$

Therefore, the equation for the linear function will be:

$y=4x-7$

Write and solve the equation and then check your answer. Which statements are true about the equation and its solution? Check

ch4aika [34]

The correct equation is n - 31 = 52

To check the solution, substitute 83 for the variable in the equation

This is an addition problem.

To solve the equation, add 31 to both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

A number decreased by thirty-one is fifty-two

That means:

Subtract 31 from a number
The difference equal 52

Assume that the number is n

∵ The number is n

∵ When n decreased by 31 the answer is 52

∴ The equation is n - 31 = 52

The correct equation is n - 31 = 52

∵ n - 31 = 52

- To find n add 31 to both sides of the equation

∴ n - 31 + 31 = 52 + 31 ⇒ addition property

∴ n = 83

-To check the equation substitute n by 83 in the left hand side, the

answer must be equal the right hand side

∵ Left hand side = 83 - 31 = 52

∵ Right hand side = 52

∴ n = 83 is correct answer

To check the solution, substitute 83 for the variable in the equation

This is an addition problem.

To solve the equation, add 31 to both sides.

Refer to the previous exercise. The researchers wanted a sufficiently large sample to be able to estimate the probability of pre

Maru [420]

Answer:

<em>The large sample n = 117.07</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Given that the estimate error (M.E) = 0.08

The proportion (p) = 0.75

q =1-p = 1- 0.75 =0.25

Level of significance = 0.05

Z₀.₀₅ = 1.96≅ 2

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

The Marginal error is determined by

M.E = $\frac{Z_{0.05} \sqrt{p(1-p)} }{\sqrt{n} }$

$0.08 = \frac{2 X \sqrt{0.75(1-0.75)} }{\sqrt{n} }$

Cross multiplication , we get

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2 X \sqrt{0.75(1-0.75)} }{0.08 }$

√n = $\frac{2 X0.4330}{0.08} = 10.825$

squaring on both sides , we get

n = 117.07

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

<em>The large sample n = 117.07</em>
