Answer:

k=−5

Step-by-step explanation:

−3(k+7)−5k+4=23

(−3)(k)+(−3)(7)+−5k+4=23(Distribute)

−3k+−21+−5k+4=23

(−3k+−5k)+(−21+4)=23(Combine Like Terms)

−8k+−17=23

−8k−17=23

Step 2: Add 17 to both sides.

−8k−17+17=23+17

−8k=40

Step 3: Divide both sides by -8.

−8k

−8

The answer is k=-5

1 Expand - 3k - 21 - 5k + 4 = 23
2 Simplify - 3k - 21 - 5k + 4 to - 8k - 17 - 8k - 17 = 23
3 Add 17 to both sides - 8k = 23 + 17
4 Simplify 23 + 17 to 40. - 8k = 40
5 Divide both sides by . k = - 40/8
6 Simplify -40/8 to 5.

6 Simplify 40/8 to 5

k = - 5 Done

You use a line of best fit for a set of data to make a prediction about an unknown value. The correlation coefficient for your d

Trava [24]

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this set, the correlation coefficient is = -0.015.

It shows that financial variables have trust issues. Once a price rises, the other one is decreasing the value of -0,015 shows, that there are several fewer associations in the set of data among x and y and between y values. This interaction also can range between -1 to 1, to 0 being completely unrelated. But you'd never be sure, in this situation, 0.015 is very similar to 0.

It means that your prediction is nothing better than just a wild choice. Its odds of an estimated value being relatively close to the actual result are therefore much smaller as the points are it's hardly the best match.

The base of a solid right pyramid is a regular hexagon with a radius of 2x units and an apothem of units. A solid right pyramid

Xelga [282]

Answer:

$6 x^2*\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of the pyramid we need to study is a hexagon.

Let's look at the attached image of an hexagon to understand how we are going to find the area of this figure.

Notice that an hexagon is the combination of 6 exactly equal equilateral triangles in our case of size "2x" (notice that the "radius" of the hexagon is given as "2x")

Therefore the area of the hexagon is going to be 6 times the area of one of those equilateral triangles.

We know the area of a triangle is the product of its base times its height, divided by 2: $\frac{base*height}{2} = \frac{2x*height}{2}$

We notice that the triangle's height is exactly what is called the "apothem" of the hexagon (depicted in green in our figure) which measures $x\sqrt{3}$ , so replacing this value in the formula above for the area of one of the triangles:

$\frac{2x*height}{2}= \frac{2x*x\sqrt{3} }{2}=x^2\sqrt{3}$

Then we multiply this area times 6 to get the total area of the hexagon (6 of these triangles):

Area of hexagon = $6x^2\sqrt{3}$

which is the last option given in the list.
