Answer:

16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data to us is ,

20, 15, 14, 16, 17, 12, 20, 22 .

Arrange it in ascending order .

= 12 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 20 , 20 , 22

The middle most observation will be median in case n is odd and average of middlemost observations if n is even , that is n = 8 .

=> Middlemost observations = 16 , 17

=> Mean = 16 + 17 /2 = 33/2 = 16.5

Find the equation of the line that contains the given point and has the given slope-

mylen [45]

Answer:

y-5 = -3x

y = -3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the point slope form of the equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y-5 = -3(x-0)

y-5 = -3x

We can change it to slope intercept form y= mx+b by adding 5 to each side

y-5+5 = -3x+5

y = -3x+5

3x - 1 = 3x + 1

subtract 3x from both sides to get (-1 = 1). This is a false statement so it is: CONTRADICTION

************************************************

4x - 11 = 7

add 11 to both sides and then divide both sides by 4 to get $(x = \frac{18}{4} = \frac{9}{2})$ . This statement is true only when x = $\frac{9}{2}$ so it is: CONDITIONAL

*************************************************

2 - 8x = 2 - 8x

add 8x to both sides to get (2 = 2). This is a true statement so it is: IDENTITY

*************************************************

x + 1 = -x + 4

add x to both sides, subtract 1 from both sides, and divide both sides by 2 to get $(x = \frac{3}{2} )$ . This statement is true only when x = $\frac{3}{2}$ so it is: CONDITIONAL
