Answer:

  1a. y = 5x +3

  1b. y = -1/7x + 2

  1c. y = 2x +3

  2a. y = -1/2x +3; slope = -1/2, y-intercept = +3

  2b. y = 3/2x +6; slope = 3/2, y-intercept = +6

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently the "y-intercept form" referred to is the one more commonly called "slope-intercept form." That form is ...

  y = mx + b . . . . . . . . m is the slope; b is the y-intercept

You arrive at this form by solving each equation for y. You do that the same way you solve any equation for any variable: undo what is done to the variable of interest.

In these general form equations, the y-variable term has a value multiplying y and some other terms added to that. First of all, you subtract the added terms (from both sides of the equation). This transforms ...

  ax +by +c = 0

into

  by = -ax -c

Next, you divide by the constant that is multiplying y. Of course all terms on both sides of the equation are divided by that, so you now have ...

  y = (-a/b)x -c/b

The slope is -a/b, and the y-intercept is -c/b.

___

1a. 5x -y +3 = 0

  -y = -5x -3 . . . . . subtract non-y terms

  y = 5x +3 . . . . . . divide by -1

__

1b. x +7y -14 = 0

  7y = -x +14 . . . . . subtract non-y terms

  y = -1/7x +2 . . . . .divide by 2

__

1c. 6x -3y +9 = 0

  -3y = -6x -9 . . . . subtract terms not containing y

  y = 2x +3 . . . . . . divide by -3

__

2a. x +2y -6 = 0

  2y = -x +6 . . . . . subtract non-y terms

  y = -1/2x +3 . . . . divide by 2 -- this is graphed as the red line below

__

2b. 3x -2y +12 = 0

  -2y = -3x -12 . . . . subtract non-y terms

  y = 3/2x +6 . . . . . divide by -2 -- this is graphed as the blue line below

_____

<em>Comment on the 2nd problem</em>

Of course, the y-intercept (constant term in slope-intercept form) is the point on the y-axis where the line crosses. The slope tells you the ratio of "rise" to "run". That is, a slope of -1/2 means the line drops one unit for each 2 units it goes to the right. A slope of 3/2 means the line increases (rises) by 3 units for each 2 units it goes to the right.

If f(x) = 3x + 2 and g(x) = 2x – 2, what is (f – g)(x)? A. x + 4 B. x – 2 C. x D. 5x – 2 E. x – 4
Bond [772]

Answer: Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the functions f(x) and g(x):

f(x) = 3x + 2

g(x)=2x-2

(f-g)(x) indicates that you need to subtract the function f(x) = 3x + 2 and the function g(x)=2x-2.

Then:

(f-g)(x)=3x + 2-(2x-2)

Now, you need to dstribute the negative sign and then you have to add like terms. Then:

(f-g)(x)=3x + 2-2x+2\\\\(f-g)(x)=x+4

You can observe that this answer matches with the option A.

Which of the following is NOT a possible value for the correlation coefficient? 1) negative 0.9 2) zero 3) positive 0.15 4) posi
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

4) positive 1.05

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Correlation:-</u>

Correlation is a statistical measure that indicates the extent to which two or more variables fluctuate together.

Examples:i)  The yield of a crop varies with the amount of rainfall

                 ii) The price of a commodity increases with the reduction in its supply and so on.

  That is  when the changes in one variable are associated or followed by changes in the other, is called <u>correlatio</u><u>n</u>

<u>positive correlation</u>:- If an increase (or decrease ) in the values of one variable corresponds to an increase(or decrease ) in the other, then correlation is said to be <u>positive.</u>

<u>negative correlation</u>:- If an increase (or decrease ) in the values of one variable corresponds to an decrease(or increase ) in the other, then correlation is said to be <u>negative</u>.

<u>no correlation:-</u>

If there is no relationship indicated between the variables,they are said to be independent or uncorrelated.

<u>uses of correlation</u>:-it is used in presenting the average relationship between any two variables through a single value of co-efficient of correlation. correlation is a statistical technique that can show whether and how strongly pairs of variables are related.

The range of correlation is -1\leq r\leq 1

r=-1 is the negative correlation

r=1 is the positive correlation

so the answer is not a possible value for the correlation coefficient is positive 1.05.
