Answer:

y = - 6x - 19

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 6x - 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 6

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - 6x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, - 1) into the partial equation

- 1 = 18 + c ⇒ c = - 1 - 18 = - 19

y = - 6x - 19 ← in slope- intercept form

The difference of two numbers is 74. Twice the first and thrice the Second sum up to 138. Find the two possible numbers . anyone

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

72 and -2

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 74

2x + 3y = 138

x - y = 74

y = x - 74

2x + 3(x - 74) = 138

2x + 3x - 222 = 138

5x = 360

x = 72

x - y = 74

72 - y = 74

-y = 2

y = -2

The brain volumes (cm cubed) of 20 brains have a mean of 1105.1 cm cubed and a standard deviation of 123.5 cm cubed. Use the g

kramer

Answer:

$1332.1 \:cm^3$ is neither significantly low nor significantly high.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, we know that:

The mean is $\bar{x}=1105.1 \:cm^{3}$ and the standard deviation is $\sigma=123.5 \:cm^{3}$ .

The range rule of thumb says that:

$minimum \:usual \:value=\bar{x}-2\sigma\\\\maximum \:usual \:value=\bar{x}+2\sigma$

Applying these definitions, we get that

$minimum \:usual \:value=1105.1-2(123.5)=858.1 \:cm^3\\\\maximum \:usual \:value=1105.1+2(123.5)=1352.1 \:cm^3$

We note that $1332.1 \:cm^3$ is between $858.1 \:cm^3$ and $1352.1 \:cm^3$ , which indicates $1332.1 \:cm^3$ is neither significantly low nor significantly high.
