If the gradient is -2 that just means we work back the way, the method i use to find the gradient is y^2-y^1/x^2-x^1 so if we sub the variables in that gives us -18-(-8)/3-x so if we add that up we get -10/3-x, so what has to be on the bottom to get -2? in this case it would be -2 so the overall answer would be -10/5 which would give us a slope of -2 when simplified :) hope this helps
Here is dependence between scores and x-values:
where 
is the mean, 
is standard deviation and i changes from 1 to 2.
1. When i=1, 
then
2. When i=2, 
then
Now solve the system of equations:
Subtract first equation from the second:
Then
Answer: the mean is 62, the standard deviation is 20.
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
(5 - a) = 20 + (6a -1) . . . . . 5-a is 20 greater than 6a-1
5 = 7a +19 . . . . . . . . . . . . . add a, collect terms
-14 = 7a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 19
-2 = a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7
The value of the variable is -2.

5 - (-2) = 7
6(-2) -1 = -13
7 is 20 greater than -13, so the answer checks OK.
Answer:
x = -4.604
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to get the value of x
We start by dividing through by 5
e^(2x + 11) = 30/5
e^(2x + 11) = 6
Writing this in natural logarithm form, we have;
ln 6 = 2x + 11
2x + 11 = 1.792
2x = 1.792-11
2x = -9.208
x = -9.208/2
x = -4.604
Answer:
c = - 32
Step-by-step explanation:
The common ratio r of the sequence is
r = 
= 
= - 2
To find the next term in the sequence multiply the previous term by r
a = 4 × - 2 = - 8
b = - 8 × - 2 = 16
c = 16 × - 2 = - 32
