Okay, let's see...
The problem is asking for a linear equation most likely in the form of y=mx+b
y is another way to say f(x)
<em>m = slope </em>
<em>b = y intercept </em>
Let's start with the y intercept first.
Y intercept means ' When does the line touch (intercept) the y axis.
In this case, if you look at the graph, the line <em>touches </em>the y axis at -1.
-1 will replaces b
To find the slope we are going to take 2 precise points from the graph.
Lets use <em>(0,-1)</em> and <em>(-6,4) </em>
To find the slope, we're going to use 
4 - (-1) / -6 - 0
Solve, our slope is 5/-6
That is our m
Our final equation is
It has 3 zeros, because its a polynomial of degree 3.
Answer:
The mean phenotype code is 2.72
The median phenotype code is 2.52
The mode phenotype code is 2.
The midrange of the phenotype codes is 2.52
B Only the mode makes sense since the data is nominal.
Step-by-step explanation:
Blank 1: If y is -5 when x is 2, that means the equation here is y = -2.5x. So, if x is 8, that makes the equation y = -2.5(8), which gives you -20.
Blank 2: If y is 3 when x is 1, the equation will be y = 3x. If x is 2, that will give you y = 3(2), which is 6.
Blank 3: If y is -7 when x is -21, the equation will be x = 3y. If y is 9, that will give you x = 3(9), which is 27.
Blank 4: If y is 5 when x is 4, the equation will be y = 1.25x. If y is 18, that makes the equation 18 = 1.25x, which is 14.4.
I hope this all helped!
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify both sides of the equation.
2x−1−(−x + 3)=6−2x
(Distribute the Negative Sign)
2x−1 + −1(−x + 3)=6−2x
2x + −1 + −1(−x) + (−1)(3)=6−2x
2x + −1 + x + −3=6−2x
2x + −1 + x + −3=6 + −2x
(Combine Like Terms)
(2x + x) + (−1 + −3)=−2x+6
3x + −4=−2x + 6
3x−4=−2x + 6
Add 2x to both sides.
3x−4 + 2x=−2x + 6 + 2x
5x−4=6
Add 4 to both sides.
5x−4 + 4=6 + 4
5x=10
Divide both sides by 5.
5x/5=10/5
x=2
