The equation in slope intercept form is:

$y=-3x+9$

A line parallel to this would have the same slope, which means our line that passes through the point (0,-4) has a slope of -3. We now have to plug in 0 as our x and -4 as our y in y=-3x+b so:

$-4=0x+b \implies \\ -4=b$

Our equation is then y=-3x-b

Write an equation to find the nth term. Then find ₐ₂₄ 1, 3, 5, 7,.......

kirill115 [55]

The equation to find the nth term is:

an = a+(n-1)d

Where a is the first term in the sequence, which is 1 and d is the difference, which in this sequence the next term is found by adding 2 to the previous term, so d = 2 and n is the term you want to find.

The equation is:

an = 1 + (n-1)2

a24 = 1 + (24-1)2 = 1 + 23(2) = 1+46 = 47

A person weighing 170 lb burns 8.6 calories per minute while mowing a lawn. How many calories would be burned A person weighing

lord [1]

Answer:

4,644 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of calories to be burned is shown below

r = rate = 8.6 cal/min

= 8.6 cal ÷ [(1 ÷ 60)hr]

= 516 cal/hr

Now

Calories consumed in 9 hours is

= (516 cal/hr) × (9 hrs)

= 4,644 calories

The temperatures (in degrees Fahrenheit) in Long Island recorded by the weather bureau over a week were 42, 49, 53, 55, 50, 47,

Annette [7]

The temperatures (in degrees Fahrenheit) in Long Island recorded by the weather bureau over a week were 42, 49, 53, 55, 50, 47, and 52.

Data arranged in ascending order are : 42, 47, 49,50, 52,53,55

As mean can be find by dividing sum of all the observations divided by total number of observations.

Median gives the middle value of the Data. If number of observation is odd, median = $\frac{n}{2}$ = $\frac{8}{2}$ = 4 th observation= 50

If n is even, then Median = Mean of $\frac{n}{2}$ and[ $\frac{n}{2}$ +1 ] th term.

Mode is that data which appears maximum number of times.

Range = Maximum value in a data - Minimum value in the Data

Correct option is Median.
