Answer:

Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

From the scatter plot displayed, we could clearly observe the direction of the trend line as it produces a negative slope. For high values of y, the values of x are low and similarly, high values of x have low y values. Therefore, this kind of relationship between the two variables is considered negative.

Help me please find the slope and y-intercept
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Slope is 2.15

y-intercept is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find slope and y-intercept of the graph given.

The formula used to find slope is: Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Looking at the graph, we can find 2 points

Point 1 : (0,-2)

Point (2): (2,-2.3)

Now putting values and finding slope:

We have: x_1=0, y_1=-2, x_2=2, y_2=-2.3

Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{2.3-(-2)}{2-0}\\ Slope=\frac{2.3+2}{2}\\ Slope=\frac{4.3}{2}\\Slope=2.15

So, we get slope = 2.15

Now, finding y-intercept

y-intercept can be found if we put x =0

Looking at the graph, when x =0, y = 2

So, y-intercept is 2

A culture of yeast doubles in size every four hours. If the yeast population is estimated to be three million now, what will it
Bess [88]
It doubles every 4 hours, so after 24 hours there will be 6 doublings.
2^6 = 64
So, the population will be (3,000,000 * 64) or 192,000,000 in 24 hours.
The answer is B.

Answer:

  3×5×53

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use divisibility rules to find the small prime factors.

The number ends in 5, so is divisible by 5.

  795/5 = 159

The sum of digits is 1+5+9 = 15; 1+5 = 6, a number divisible by 3, so 3 is a factor.

  159/3 = 53 . . . . . a prime number,* so we're done.

795 = 3×5×53

_____

* If this were not prime, it would be divisible by a prime less than its square root. √53 ≈ 7.3. We know it is not divisible by 2, 3, or 5. We also know the closest multiples of 7 are 49 and 56, so it is not divisible by 7. Hence 53 is prime.
