Answer <u>(assuming the question allows it to be written in slope-intercept form)</u>:

y = -\frac{3}{5} x-\frac{9}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, find the slope of the equation. Use the slope formula m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}, substitute the given points' x and y values, and simplify:

m = \frac{(-3)-(0)}{(2)-(-3)} \\m  =\frac{-3-0}{2+3}\\m = -\frac{3}{5}

Thus, the slope is -\frac{3}{5}.

2) Now, use the point-slope formula y-y_1 = m (x-x_1) and substitute real values for m, x_1, and y_1.

Since m represents the slope, substitute -\frac{3}{5} in its place. Since x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of a point the line crosses, use the x and y values of any one of the given points to substitute into the formula. (Either one is fine. I chose (2,-3).) Then, isolate y to put it into slope-intercept form and find the answer:

y-(-3) = -\frac{3}{5} (x-(2))\\y + 3 = -\frac{3}{5} x + \frac{6}{5} \\y = -\frac{3}{5} x - \frac{9}{5}

fredd [130]

Answer:  a. statistic

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Population : It is a set of all possible observations that can be made regarding a study by the researcher.
  • Sample : It is finite subset of population that represents the population in  the researcher's analysis.
  • Population parameter : It is a value that is calculated from the entire population such as population mean , population proportion etc.
  • Statistics : It is a value that is calculated from the sample taken out from population.

Since ,The group of people who took poll are representing the sample.

Therefore, 92% of those polled said that a year from now their family financial situation will be as good as it is today or better that means 92% describes a statistics.

Thus , the correct answer is a. statistic

Graph the line with slope 1/2 passing through the point (5, - 1)
True [87]

Answer:

<u><em>The equation is y = (1/2)x + - 3.5</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We look for an equation with the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.

We're given the slope, (1/2) which we can use for m:

y = (1/2)x + b

We are told the line goes through (5,-1).  We need a value of b that will move the line to include this point.  Do that by substituting the values:

 x = 5, and y= -1

y = (1/2)x + b

-1 = (1/2)*5 + b

-1 = (2.5) + b

- 3.5 =   b

<u><em>The equation is y = (1/2)x + - 3.5</em></u>
