Answer:

New mean=71.32

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression for the total initial score is;

T=M×S

where;

T=total initial score

M=mean score

S=number in the set

replacing;

T=unknown

M=72

S=17

replacing;

T=72×17=1,224

The total initial score=1,224

Determine the total score by;

total score=total initial score+total final score

where;

total initial score=1,224

total final score=(68+63)=131

replacing;

total score=1,224+131=1,355

Determine the new mean;

New mean=total score/new number

where;

total score=1,355

new number=(17+2)=19

replacing;

new mean=1,355/19=71.32

Find the equation of the line that passes through (1,4) and is parallel to 3x+y+2=0. Leave your answer in the form y=mx+c.
Mila [183]

Answer:

y = -3x + 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the given line by converting to intercept form:

3x + y + 2 = 0

y = -3x - 2

So the slope is -3.

Then the line we want has a slope of -3 also (as it is parallel).

y - y1 = m(x - x1)   where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line:

m = -3,  x1 = 1 and y1 = 4, so we have:

y - 4 = -3(x - 1)

y = -3x + 3 + 4

y = -3x + 7.
