Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (1, -4) with a slope of 1/2
tatiyna

For this case we have that by definition, the line equation of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

According to the statement we have:

m = \frac {1} {2}

Thus, the equation is of the form:

y = \frac {1} {2} x + b

We substitute the given point and find "b":

-4 = \frac {1} {2} (1) + b\\-4 = \frac {1} {2} + b\\-4- \frac {1} {2} = b\\b = - \frac {9} {2}

Finally, the equation is of the form:

y = \frac {1} {2} x- \frac {9} {2}

Answer:

y = \frac {1} {2} x- \frac {9} {2}

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

1) p1=0.83

2) p2=0.81

3) Option B

4) p=0.82

5) s=0.03

6) z=0.67

7) P=0.50

8) Do not reject H0

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The proportion of Republicans who think the full-body scans should be applied in airports is equal to the ratio between the republicans that think it should over the total Republicans in the poll:

p=X/n=258/311=0.83

2) The proportion of Democrats who think the full-body scans should be applied in airports is equal to:

p=X/n=294/363=0.81

3) As we want to know if there is a difference in the proportions calculated, not if one is higher or lower than the other, the correct option is B:

H_0:p_1-p_2=0\\\\H_a:p_1-p_2\neq0

4) The pooled estimate of a proportion is the average of both proportions:

\bar{p}=\frac{p_1+p_2}{2}= \frac{0.83+0.81}{2}=0.82

5) The standard error can be calculated as:

s=\sqrt{\frac{\bar{p}(1-\bar{p})}{n_1} +\frac{\bar{p}(1-\bar{p})}{n_2}} \\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{0.82*0.18}{311} +\frac{0.82*0.18}{363}} \\\\s=\sqrt{0.00047+0.00041} =\sqrt{0.00088}=0.03

6) The z-statistic can be calculated as:

z=\frac{p_1-p_2}{s}=\frac{0.83-0.81}{0.03}=\frac{0.02}{0.03}=0.67

7) The P-value for z=0.67 is P=0.50 (from the standard normal distribution table).

2P(Z>|z|)=0.50286

8) If the significance level is 0.01, the P-value is bigger than the significance level. The effect is not significanct. The null hypothesis is not rejected.

There is not enough evidence to say that both proportions are different.

A. Do not reject H0

A scientist is conducting an experiment on two types of bacteria to determine which type will grow faster in a pool. After colle
Allushta [10]

Answer: bacteria 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the growth rates are modeled as : Bacteria 1: y = 4x

And Bacteria 2: y = 4x2

Where y represents the number of bacteria colonies and x represents the number of hours.

Let's plug in for the two models

By assuming x = 2 and x = 3

If x = 2

Bacteria 1 will be y = 8 and bacteria 2 will be y = 16

Based on these models, bacteria 2 is growing faster than bacteria 1 because the growth is exponential
