Three possible answers are:
y = 2x-1
y = 5x-1
y = -3x-1

All of them have the same y intercept of -1. The slopes are the only thing that differ.

Any linear equation can be written in the form y = mx+b where
m = slope
b = y intercept

Flauer [41]

She could measure the next length to the left or right and she will have all 4 sides because a rectangle has 2 sets of equal sides.

BRCA1 is a gene that has been linked to breast cancer. Researches at Stanford University wanted to estimate what proportion of w

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The point estimate for the proportion of women with BRCA1 mutation is 0.168

Step-by-step explanation:

The point estimate for the proportion of women with BRCA1 mutation is the number of women with this mutation divided by the size of the sample.

Of the 173, they found that 29 had BRCA1 mutations.

29/173 = 0.168

The point estimate for the proportion of women with BRCA1 mutation is 0.168

A store manager paid $95 for an item and set the selling price at $116.85. What was the percent markup?

Neporo4naja [7]

We have been given that a store manager paid $95 for an item and set the selling price at $116.85. We are asked to find the percent mark-up.

We will use percent increase formula to solve our given problem.

$\text{Percent increase}=\frac{\text{Final}-\text{Initial}}{\text{Initial}}\times 100\%$

$\text{Percent increase}=\frac{\$116.85-\$95}{\$95}\times 100\%$

$\text{Percent increase}=\frac{\$21.85}{\$95}\times 100\%$

$\text{Percent increase}=0.23\times 100\%$

$\text{Percent increase}=23\%$

Therefore, the mark-up will be 23% and option 'b' is the correct choice.
