keeping in mind that standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-5)}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{2}{3}}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-1)}]\implies y+5=\cfrac{2}{3}(x+1)$

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{3}}{3(y+5)=3\left( \cfrac{2}{3}(x+1) \right)}\implies 3y+15 = 2(x+1) \implies 3y+15=2x+2 \\\\\\ 3y=2x-13\implies -2x+3y=-13\implies 2x-3y=13$

Question 3 A study was performed to determine whether men and women differ in their repeatability in assembling components on pr

Fed [463]

Answer:

There is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that men and women differ in repeatability for this assembly task

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let subscript 1 represent men and 2 represent women, respectively.

$n_1 = 25$

$n_2 = 21$

$s_1 = 0.98$

$s_2 = 1.02$

$\alpha = 0.02$

Required

Determine if here is enough evidence

First, we need to state the hypotheses

$H_o: \sigma_1^2 = \sigma_2^2$

$H_1: \sigma_1^2 \ne \sigma_2^2$

Next, calculate the test statistic using:

$F = \frac{s_1^2}{s_2^2}$

$F = \frac{0.98^2}{1.02^2}$

$F = 0.923$

Calculate the rejection region;

But first, calculate the degrees of freedom

$df_1 =n_1 - 1$

$df_1 =25 - 1$

$df_1 =24$

$df_2 = n_2 -1$

$df_2 = 21 - 1$

$df_2 = 20$

Using the F Distribution: table

$c = \frac{\alpha}{2}$

$c = \frac{0.02}{2}$

$c = 0.01$

At 0.01 level (check row 20 and column 24), the critical value is:

$f_{0.01,24,20} = 2.86$ --- the upper bound

At 0.01 level (check row 24 and column 20), the critical value is:

$f_{0.01,20,24} = 2.74$

Calculate the inverse F distribution.

$f_{0.99,20,24} = \frac{1}{f_{0.01,20,24}} = \frac{1}{2.74} =0.365$ ---- the lower bound

The rejection region is then represented as:

$0.365 < Test\ Statistic < 2.86$

If the test statistic falls within this region, then the null hypothesis is rejected

$F = 0.923$ --- Test Statistic

$0.365 < 0.923 < 2.86$

The above inequality is true; so, the null hypothesis is rejected.

This implies that, there is no sufficient evidence.

What is the slope of the line through the points (6,-8)And (3,- 4)

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

y=(-4/3)x

Step-by-step explanation:

you put the points into this equation to find the slope

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

now lets label the points

(6,-8)

x1=6 and y1=-8

(3,-4)

x2=3 and y2=-4

Input into equation

(-4-(-8))/(3-6)=

(-4+8)/(3-6)

4/-3

There are 70 students in the school band. 40% of them are sixth graders, 20% are seventh graders, and the rest are eighth grader

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

40% 6th graders of 70 total = 28 6th graders

40% 6th graders + 20% 7th graders = 60%

100% - 60% = 40% 8th graders

40% are 8th graders therefore the answer is 28
