How do I solve -2x > 6

1 answer:

7 0

I’m not the best with words but first you would have to treat the greater sign as a = sign. So..
-2x =6
/ /
-2 -2
X = -3
and then you would change the sign to a less than sign because you divided by a negative.

What is the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, that passes through (3, -1) and (-1, 5)? y = -3/2x+7/2 2y = -3x + 7 2

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = -3/2x + 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we must first use the slope formula with the two point to find the slope.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (5 - -1)/(-1 - 3)

m = 6/-4

m = -3/2

Now that we have the slope, we can use that and either point in point-slope form. Then we solve for y.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 1 = -3/2(x - 3)

y + 1 = -3/2x + 9/2

y = -3/2x + 7/2

Answer:

The sample standard deviation is 393.99

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation of a sample can be calculated using the following formula:

$s=\sqrt[ ]{\frac{1}{N-1} \sum_{i=1}^{N}(x_{i}-{\displaystyle \textstyle {\bar {x}}}) ^{2} }$

Where:

$s=$ Sample standart deviation

$N=$ Number of observations in the sample

${\displaystyle \textstyle {\bar {x}}}=$ Mean value of the sample

and $\sum_{i=1}^{N}(x_{i}-{\displaystyle \textstyle {\bar {x}}}) ^{2} }$ simbolizes the addition of the square of the difference between each observation and the mean value of the sample.
