Answer:

x > $\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{5(9-x)}{3+1}$

Add 3 and 1 to get 4.

$\frac{5(9-x)}{4}$

Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by 9−x.

$\frac{45-5x}{4}$

Subtract 45/5 from both sides.

$-\frac{5}{4}x$

Since 44/4 and 45/4 have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$-\frac{5}{4} x$

Multiply both sides by -4/5, the reciprocal of -5/4. Since -5/4 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.

$x>-\frac{1}{4} (-\frac{4}{5} )$

Multiply -1/4 times -4/5 by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$x>\frac{-(-4)}{4 x 5}$

$x>\frac{1}{5}$

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that for a biology project, you measure the weight in grams and the tail length in millimeters of a group of mice.

The correlation is r = 0.9

If you had measured tail length in centimeters instead of millimeters, what would be the correlation?

For this we must understand the meaning of correlation and formula

Correlation is a measure of linear association between the two variables and always lie between -1 and 1

This is got by dividing covariance of (x,y) by product of std deviation of x and y

So because we changed the units of length correlation coefficient would not change.

It would remain the same as 0.90

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If ΔABC ~ ΔPQR

$\frac{PQ}{AB} =\frac{QR}{BC} = \frac{RP}{CA}$

$\frac{AB}{PQ} =\frac{BC}{QR} =\frac{CA}{RP}$

Graph the line with slope 7 and y-intercept -7

poizon [28]

Given :-

To graph the line with slope 7 and y intercept -7.

To Find :-

The graph of the line .

Solution :-

Here since the slope of the line is 7 and y intercept is -7 , we can use the slope intercept form of the line to find the equation of the line . The slope intercept form of the line is ,

$\longrightarrow$ y = mx + c

On putting the respective values ,

$\longrightarrow$ y = 7(x) + (-7)

$\longrightarrow$ y = 7x - 7

For the graph see attachment .
