Answer: Jordan=120. Sam=60

Step-by-step explanation: Together they weigh 180 pounds Jordan weighs twice as much as sam. We can write their values as Sam=x and Jordan=2x then we can make a equation

2x+x=180

3x=180

x=60

Then we can substitute x in Jordan and sams values to get our final answe;

Jordan=120. Sam=60

Answer:

Jordan weighs 120 pounds, Sam weighs 60 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create an equation 2s=J. Our second equation is S+J=180. We can substitute J for 2s and our new equation will be 3s=180. We can divide 3 from both sides and we get s= 60. And we know that Jordan weighs two times as sam, then Jordan weighs 120 pounds.

Write an equation for the line that has a slope -8/9 and goes through the point (-7, 7)

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

y = (-8/9)x + 0.77777

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know the slope, so the only thing left to find is the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept, we can <u>plug in the slope and point to the slope-intercept form equation</u> (y = mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-int.)

y = m * x + b

(7) = (-8/9)*(-7) + b

<u>Now, just solve for b!</u>

(7) = (-8/9)*(-7) + b

7 = 56/9 + b

7 - (56/9) = b

b = 0.777777 (repeating decimal, usually signified by a little line above the 7)

so now we just <u>plug in the slope and y-intercept we found into y = mx + b.</u>

y = mx + b

y = (-8/9)x + 0.77777

Write the slip-intercept form of the equation of the line described

kompoz [17]

Answer:

1) y=⅚x -2⅓

2) y=8/3x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Point-slope form:</u>

y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

Parallel lines have the same gradient.

Gradient of given line= $\frac{5}{6}$

Thus, m=⅚

Susbt. m=⅚ into the equation,

y= ⅚x +c

Since the line passes through the point (4, 1), (4, 1) must satisfy the equation. Thus, substitute (4, 1) into the equation to find c.

When x=4, y=1,

1= ⅚(4) +c

$1 = \frac{20}{6} + c \\ c = 1 - \frac{20}{6} \\ c = 1 - 3 \frac{1}{3} \\ c = - 2 \frac{1}{3}$

Thus the equation of the line is $y = \frac{5}{6} x - 2 \frac{1}{3}$ .

The gradients of perpendicular lines= -1.

Gradient of given line= -⅜

-⅜(gradient of line)= -1

gradient of line

= -1 ÷ (-⅜)

= -1 ×(-8/3)

= $\frac{8}{3}$

$y = \frac{8}{3} x + c$

When x=3, y=3,

$3 = \frac{8}{3} (3) + c \\ 3 = 8 + c \\ c = 3 - 8 \\ c = - 5$

Thus the equation of the line is $y = \frac{8}{3} x - 5$ .

The p-value for a one-sided test of the population proportion is 0.0513. Which of

uysha [10]

Using the equation of the test statistic, it is found that with an increased sample size, the test statistic would decrease and the p-value would increase.

<h3>How to find the p-value of a test?</h3>

It depends on the test statistic z, as follows.

For a left-tailed test, it is the area under the normal curve to the left of z, which is the <u>p-value of z</u>.

For a right-tailed test, it is the area under the normal curve to the right of z, which is <u>1 subtracted by the p-value of z</u>.

For a two-tailed test, it is the area under the normal curve to the left of -z combined with the area to the right of z, hence it is <u>2 multiplied by 1 subtracted by the p-value of z</u>.

In all cases, a higher test statistic leads to a lower p-value, and vice-versa.

<h3>What is the equation for the test statistic?</h3>

The equation is given by:

$t = \frac{\overline{X} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

The parameters are:

$\overline{X}$ is the sample mean.

$\mu$ is the tested value.

s is the standard deviation.

n is the sample size.

From this, it is taken that if the sample size was increased with all other parameters remaining the same, the test statistic would decrease, and the p-value would increase.
