If the 5 scores have a mean of 8, then their total sum would be 8*5 = 40
Now if one score if added (let's call this score x), there are 6 scores and the mean changes to 9, thus:
(40 + x)/6 = 9
40 + x = 54
x = 14
I’m not 100% sure but isn’t it x2 +xy +y2?
It is less than. Any negative number compared to a positive number will be less than.
Answer:
3/2
Sorry for the bad handwriting.
The slope-intercept form of a line is
y=mx+b
where m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
if you convert the function into an equation, then
y=4-5x
rearranging the equation
y=-5x +4
thus
m=-5 and b=4
the y-intercept of the function is 4
