x+142 =3x+64
subtract x from each side
142 = 2x+64
subtract 64 from each side
142-64 = 2x
78=2x
divide by 2
78/2 = x
x=39
The number is 39
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of a linear equation is
, where
,
, and
are constants in the equation.
Based on the equation you have provided, the standard form would be
, where
.
To find the y-intercept, set
.

Therefore, the y-intercept is
.
Do the same thing for the x-intercept, but this time with
.

Therefore, the x-intercept is
.
This trend line shows a general pattern, and since we are with biological samples this trend line will not always be true. The outliers could be from either a genetic difference or an environmental difference that occured in the persons life.
Answer:
- p=0.7103 (4-game series)
- p=0.6480 (2-game series)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the random variable equal the the first 4 straight wins. An overall win for the stronger team implies a negative binomial function with the parameters n=4, p=0.6:

#We find probabilities for the different values of i:

Hence, probability of the stronger team winning overall is:

#Define Y as the random variable for winning 2/3 games.:

Hence, probability of the stronger team winning in 2 out 3 game series is 0.6480
The stronger team has a higher chance of winning in a 4-game series(0.7103>0.6480)
Answer:
C: p < 0.01
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Spearman rank Correlation Coefficient: rs = 0.53
sample size: n = 13 pairs
Now, from the table attached, tracing n = 13 and locating a corresponding value of rs = 0.53 which falls in between 0.484 and 0.56. Thus, we can see that p is greater than the nominal significance value of 0.05 but less than 0.01.
Thus, correct answer is p < 0.01
