Answer:

It does not show variation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$x = y + 2$

Required

Determine if there's direct variation between x and y

The general form of direct variation is:

$y = kx$

Make y the subject of formula in the given parameters;

$x = y + 2$

$y = x - 2$

Compare $y = x - 2$ to $y = kx$

<em>Since they are not of the same form, then the given equation do not show direct variation</em>

Hi there !

You have a formule. You just have to apply it.

Let's do it then !

First of all, you must write the coordinates of the point E and F.

Therefore :

$E(-2;-4)$
$F(2;2)$

So here, we have :

$x_{1} =-2$
$y_{1} =-4$

$x_{2} =2$
$y_{2} =2$

Now, Let's apply the formula :

$M((-2+2)/2 ; (-4+2)/2)$
$M(0;-1)$

In short, the answer would be : B) $(0;-1)$ .

Hope this helps !

Margin of error formula:
ME = z * (Sigma) / √ n
z = 1.96 for a 95 % confidence interval;
Sigma = 3 ( the population standard deviation )
n = 500
ME = 1.96 * 3 / √500 =
= 1.96 * 3 / 22.36 =
= 5.88 / 22.36 = 0.263
Answer:
The margin error for a 95% confidence interval is 0.263.
