\text{Substitute the values of x and y to the equation}\\\\x=-2,\ y=6,\ 3ax+2by=6\\\\3a(-2)+2b(6)=6\\\\-6a+12b=6\qquad|\text{add 6a to both sides}\\\\12b=6a+6\qquad|\text{divide both sides by 12}\\\\b=\dfrac{6a}{12}+\dfrac{6}{12}\\\\\boxed{b=\dfrac{1}{2}a+\dfrac{1}{2}}

Why will the percent of change always be represented By a positive number
barxatty [35]
The percent of change will always be represented by a positive number because that change is an absolute value. Absolute values will always stay positive because the direction is ignored. It's not like a -1 or a -2, but it's a zero or a 3.
 Hope this helped you out! :D

A marketing representative wants to estimate the proportion of people in a state who like the new design on the packaging of a c
Effectus [21]

Answer:

The correct option is;

(B) Yes, because sampling distributions of population proportions are modeled with a normal model.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the condition for normality being that where we have a population with a given mean and standard deviation, while a sufficiently large sample is drawn from the population while being replaced, the distribution of the sample mean p will be distributed normally according to central limit theorem.

Use area of squares to visualize Pythagorean theorem
docker41 [41]

We know that the Pythagorean Theorem is a² + b² = c² and that the area of a square is l x w.

Firstly, we'll have to find the two measures of the triangle that correspond to the areas.

Since the figures are squares, we know that the length and width values must be the same.

We could square the numbers to find the side lengths, however we would have to square them again when substituting for the Pythagorean Theorem, so we can leave them as-is and adjust the equation accordingly.

(33) + b² = (44)

Next, we'll subtract our smaller value from our larger.

b² = (11)

Once again, we could find the square root of this number, but we'd just have to square it again to find the area of the square, so we can just simply write our answer as 11 units.

Therefore, the area of the square is 11 units!

<em>Hope this helped! :)</em>
