Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of the line can be calculated using the \frac{rise}{run} between two points.

\frac{rise}{run} = \frac{-8-(-2)}{3-5}

     = \frac{-8+2}{3-5}

     = \frac{-6}{-2}

     = 3

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is

5(x - 6 + 5) = 4(x - 3 + 4)

5(x - 1) = 4(x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

5x - 5 = 4x + 4 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

x - 5 = 4 ( add 5 to both sides )

x = 9

jekas [21]

Answer:

The data provide sufficient evidence that older people are more likely to be victimized.

Step-by-step explanation:

H 0 : P = 0.10

H 1 : P > 0.10 (Right tailed test)

n = 527, P = 0.1235

The test statistics

x = P - p / \sqrt{p*(1-p) / n}

x = 0.1235 - 0.10 / \sqrt{0.10 * 0.90 / 527}

x = 0.0235 / \sqrt{0.09 / 527}

x = 0.0235 / \sqrt{0.00017077798}

x = 0.0235 / 0.0130682049264618

x = 1.798257689731729

x = 1.798

P value = [1 - p(Z > 1.7980] (Right tailed test)

P value = 0.036089

The P - Value is very small, so <u>reject H0</u>

Conclusion: The data provide sufficient evidence that older people are more likely to be victimized.
