A line passes through the point (8,7) and has a slope of negative 3/4 Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.

Anton [14]

Answer: Y= -3/4x+13

Step-by-step explanation:

A line passes through the point (8,7) and has a slope of negative 3/4 Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.

This is what i get

Slope of a line Y= mx+b

Y= 7

X= 8

M= -3/4

7= -3/4(8)+b

7= -6+b

7+6=b

13=b

Y= -3/4x+13

The paint used to make lines on roads must reflect enough light to be clearly visible at night. Let µ denote the true average re

Zolol [24]

Answer:

a) $df=n-1=16-1=15$

The statistic calculated is given by t=3.3

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{15}>3.3)=0.0024$

So since the p value is lower than the significance level $pv$ we reject the null hypothesis.

b) $df=n-1=8-1=7$

The statistic calculated is given by t=1.8

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{7}>1.8)=0.057$

So since the p value is higher than the significance level $pv>\alpha$ we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

c) $df=n-1=26-1=25$

The statistic calculated is given by t=-0.6

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{25}>-0.6)=0.723$

So since the p value is higher than the significance level $pv>\alpha$ we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean

$s$ represent the standard deviation for the sample

$n$ sample size

$\mu_o =20$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the true mean is higher than 20, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 20$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 20$

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

(a) n = 16, t = 3.3, a = 0.05, P-value =

First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=16-1=15$

The statistic calculated is given by t=3.3

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{15}>3.3)=0.0024$

So since the p value is lower than the significance level $pv$ we reject the null hypothesis.

(b) n = 8, t = 1.8, a = 0.01, P-value =

First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=8-1=7$

The statistic calculated is given by t=1.8

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{7}>1.8)=0.057$

So since the p value is higher than the significance level $pv>\alpha$ we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

(c) n = 26,t = -0.6, P-value =

First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=26-1=25$

The statistic calculated is given by t=-0.6

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{25}>-0.6)=0.723$

So since the p value is higher than the significance level $pv>\alpha$ we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

Pizzazz pizza sells a small pizza for 10.99. it has a diameter of 10 in. what is the pric per sqaure inch

Nookie1986 [14]

Area of a circle = pi * r^2

Radius (r) = ½ * diameter

½ * 10 = 5

A= pi * 5^2

25 * pi = 78.54 sq inches

10.99 / 78.54 = about 14 cents per sq in (13.99)

assume that a 3 month CD purchased for $2000 pay a simple interest at an annual rate of 10%. How much total interest does it ear

algol [13]

CD = certificate of deposit (an investment)
Interest rate, i = 10% per annum (simple interest)
Principal, P = $2000 (present value)
Period, T = 3 months = 0.25 year

Simple interest formula
Interest earned = Pit
=2000*0.10*0.25
=$50

Balance at maturity (amount that investor gets after three months)
=$2000+$50
=$2050
