Because it does not specify the order and in division, the order matters.

A coordinate plane with a line passing through the points (negative 4, negative 5) and (1, negative 1).

Ksju [112]

Answer:

4x - 5y - 9 = 0

$\frac{9}{4}$

$\frac{-9}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line passing through the points (-4,-5) and (1,-1) is given by $\frac{y - (-5)}{-5-(-1)} =\frac{x-(-4)}{-4-1}$

⇒ $\frac{y+5}{-4} =\frac{x+4}{-5}$

⇒ 5y + 25 = 4x + 16

⇒ 4x - 5y - 9 = 0 ....(1) (Answer)

Now, this above equation can be represented as

$\frac{x}{\frac{9}{4} } + \frac{y}{\frac{-9}{5} } =1$

Therefore, the x-intercept is $\frac{9}{4}$ (Answer)

And the y-intercept is $\frac{-9}{5}$ . (Answer)

A researcher selects all of the possible samples with n = 8 scores from a population and computes the mean, dividing by n, for e

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

By the Central Limit Theorem, the average value for all of the sample means is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the central limit theorem to solve this question.

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sample means of size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation, which is also called standard error $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

If the population mean is μ = 14, then what is the average value for all of the sample means?

By the Central Limit Theorem, the average value for all of the sample means is 14.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

880 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

L = 20, W = 10, H = 8

2(h × W) + 2(h × L) + 2(W × L)

= 2(8*10) + 2(8*20) + 2(10*20)

= 2(80) + 2(160) + 2(200)

= 160 + 320 + 400

= 880 in³
