6x + x + x - 5 - 2 = 8 + 2x + x

combine like terms

8x -7 = 8 +3x

subtract 3x from each side

5x -7 = 8

add 7 to each side

5x = 15

divide by 5

x=3

Answer: 8x -7 = 8 +3x

x=3

The average of Aaron's three test scores must be at least 93 to earn an A in the class. Aaron scored 89 on the first

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Aaron must obtain a 96 or higher to achieve the desired score to earn an A in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the average of Aaron's three test scores must be at least 93 to earn an A in the class, and Aaron scored 89 on the first test and 94 on the second test, to determine what scores can Aaron get on his third test to guarantee an A in the class, knowing that the highest possible score is 100, the following inequality must be written:

93 x 3 = 279

89 + 94 + S = 279

S = 279 - 89 - 94

S = 96

Thus, at a minimum, Aaron must obtain a 96 to achieve the desired score to earn an A in the class.

A 90 percent confidence interval for the slope of a regression line is determined to be (-0.181, 1.529). Which of the following

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer: a. The correlation coefficient of the data is positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimated slope of sample regression line = $\dfrac{Upper \ limit + lower\ limit}{2}$

Here , confidence interval : (-0.181, 1.529)

Estimated slope of sample regression line = $\dfrac{-0.181+1.529}{2}$

$=\dfrac{1.348}{2}\\\\=0.674\ \ \ \ [\text{ positive}]$

⇒Correlation coefficient(r) must be positive, So a. is true.

But, d. and e. are wrong(0.674 ≠ 0 or 1.348).

We cannot check residuals or its sum from confidence interval of slope of a regression line, so b is wrong.

We cannot say that scatterplot is linear as we cannot determine it from interval, so c. is wrong

So, the correct option : a. The correlation coefficient of the data is positive.
