Answer:

y = (-1/2)x

Step-by-step explanation:

As we go from (-4, 2) to (6, -3), x (the "run") increases by 10 and y (the "rise") decreases by 5.  Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is m = rise / run = m = -5/10, or m = -1/2.

We adapt the slope-intercept form as follows:  y = mx + b becomes

2 = (-1/2)(-4) + b, or

2 = 2 + b.  Therefore, b must be 0.  The desired eequation is y = (-1/2)x.

What is the margin of error for a sample statistic for a population with a standard deviation of 7.75?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Margin of Error  = 1.96 \times 7.75 = 15.19

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Margin of Error of a population with a standard deviation of 7.75?

ii) Let us assume a two tailed test with a 95% confidence interval

iii) Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }  = Z_{\frac{\ 0.05 }{2} } = Z_{0.025} = 1.96

iv) therefore Margin of Error  = 1.96 \times 7.75 = 15.19

Describe the behavior of the graph at the x-intercepts for the function f(x)=(2x-7)^7(x+3)^4. Identify each x-intercept and just
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

f(x)=(2x-7)^7(x+3)^4

When y=0, (2x-7)^7=0 and x=3.5 OR

(x+3)^4=0, and x=-3

Look at x=h or f(2)

That is 96-56-44+2 and it is not equal to 0. (x-2) is not a factor.

x^3-5x^2+6x-30

after trying 1,2, and 3, I tried 5

5/1===-5===6===-30

==1===0====6====30

(x^2-6) with no remainder

the factors are (x-5)(x^2+6)

the zeroes are 5, +/- i sqrt (6). Only one real 0.

hope this helps let me know in the comments if i'm wrong
