Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A(2,1)

2x-y+k=0    k=?

2*2-1+k=0

4-1+k=0

3+k=0

k=-3

  • B(5,-8)

2x-y+k=0

2*5-(-8)+k=0

10+8+k=0

18+k=0

k=-18

Answer:

  k = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of P is ...

  P = (2A+B)/3 = (2·2+5, 2·1-8)/3 = (3, -2)

Putting this point into the equation for the line, we have ...

  2(3) -(-2) +k = 0

  8 +k = 0

  k = -8

What is 7/6y-8=2<br> A 5 5/9<br> B -10 4/5<br> C 18<br> D 20
koban [17]

Answer: The answer is actually 8 4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Because...

7/6y-8=2

Add the 8 to the other side

7/6y=10

You then have you divide 7/6y by 7/6, then do it to the other side giving you 60/7.

That gives you a mixed number of 8 4/7.

Recall that the owner of a local health food store recently started a new ad campaign to attract more business and wants to know
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The answer to the given problem is provided below.

Step-by-step explanation:

She can make the conclusion at 95% confidence level that average sales have increased:

Since the sample mean, $2,984, falls outside the range of likely sample means (which has an upper bound=$2,843.44), the store owner can reject the null hypothesis that μ≤ $2,700 μ≤ $2,700 at a 95% confidence level.

Since she can reject the null hypothesis, she can essentially accept the alternative hypothesis and conclude the average daily sales have increased.
