Question 2 of 10

Insert the point, (5,-2) with the slope of the line to figure out the equation. You can either use point-slope form, or plug it for for slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form:
-2 = -2(5) + b
-2 = -10 + b
Add 10 on both sides
8 = b

Thus,

y = -2x + 8

Answer is B

A political scientist wants to know how college students feel about the Social Security system. She obtains a list of the 3456 u

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

For this case the population is described as:

All the college students

And the political have a list of 3456 undergraduates at her college for the sampling frame.

The sample would be the 104 students who return the survey.

Is important to notice that since he know the information about her college she can apply inference about the parameter of interest just at her college and not about all the possible students of college.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case the population is described as:

The sample would be the 104 students who return the survey.

Is important to notice that since he know the information about her college she can apply inference about the parameter of interest just at her college and not about all the possible students of college.

For this case we can also find the non reponse rate since we know that the total of questionnaires are 250 and she got back just 104 answered

$Non-resp. = \frac{250-104}{250} = \frac{146}{250}= 0.584$

So we have a non response rate of 58.4 %

For what value of p will the pair of linear equations have infinitely many solutions (p-3)x + 3y = p , px+ py = 12

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer: p = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

HI !

px + 3y - ( p-3)=0

a₁ = p , b₁ = 3 , c₁ = - (p-3)

=====================

12x + py - p=0

a₂ = 12 , b₂ = p , c₂ = -p

since , the equations have infinite solutions ,

a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂

p/12 = 3/p = p-3/p

--------------------------------------

p/12 = 3/p

cross multiply ,

p² = 36

p = √36

p = 6

for the value of p = 6 , the equations will have infinitely many solutions
