The "m" in y = mx + b is the <u>slope.</u>
It is the number of units a point goes up, down, left, or right each time. Making the line linear/straight.
"rise" is the the number of units you go up(+) or down(-), "run" is the number of units you go to the right
For example, if your slope is:
You are going up 1 unit, and to the right 2 units
3 or 
You are going up 3 units, and to the right 1 unit
You are going down one unit, and to the right 2 units
-3 or 
You are going down 3 units, and to the right 1 unit

Standardized tests: In a particular year, the mean score on the ACT test was 19.3 and the standard deviation was 5.3. The mean score on the SAT mathematics test was 532 and the standard deviation was 128. The distributions of both scores were approximately bell-shaped. Round the answers to at least two decimal places. Part: 0/4 Part 1 of 4 (a) Find the z-score for an ACT score of 26. The Z-score for an ACT score of 26 is
Answer:
1.26
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
For ACT:
Mean score, m = 19.3
Standard deviation, s = 5.3
Zscore for ACT score of 26;
Using the Zscore formula :
(x - mean) / standard deviation
x = 26
Zscore :
(26 - 19.3) / 5.3
= 6.7 / 5.3
= 1.2641509
= 1.26
Answer:
The simplest equation for a parabola is y = x^2
So to solve for y, subtract 108 from each side.
The equation becomes -y=126
Since you don't want y to be negative then divide each side by -1 this will flip all of the signs (positives become negative and vice versa) without changing the number.
So the equation is now y= -126
Answer: This triangle is <u>not</u> a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
In a right triangle, the hypotenuse(c) is always the longest side and a and b are the shorter sides. Thus, 5^2+9^2=13^2. Simplify this to get 25+81=169, then 106=169. Because 106 does <u>not</u> equal 169, it is not a right triangle.
