Answer:

y = 2x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c, m is the gradient and c is the intercept

The line passes through points 4 and -5, x is 4 and y is -5

-5 = 4m + c

When two lines are perpendicular, the products of their gradients are equal to -1, m1 * m2 = -1

x + 2y = 5

2y = -x + 5

y = (-1/2 * x) + 5

therefore m = -1/2

m1 * m2 = -1

m * -1/2 = -1

-m = -2 , therefore m = 2

-5 = 4 * 2 + c

c = -5 - 8, which is -13

Therefore the equation for the line is

y = 2x - 13

When the outliers are removed, how does the mean change? (2 points) dot plot with 1 on 50, 1 on 76, 1 on 78, 2 on 79, 1 on 80, 1
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Answer: The mean increases by 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The original data set is 

{50, 76, 78, 79, 79, 80, 81, 82, 82, 83}

The outlier is 50 because it is not near the group of values from 76 to 83 which is where the main cluster is.

The original mean is M = (50+76+78+79+79+80+81+82+82+83)/10 = 77

If we take out the outlier 50, the new mean is N = (76+78+79+79+80+81+82+82+83)/9 = 80

So in summary so far

old mean = M = 77

new mean = N = 80

The difference in values is N-M = 80-77 = 3

So that's why the mean increases by 3

A negative scale factor inverts the original image and scales it to what the number is.

An expansion means the image would get bigger.

For an image to get bigger the scale factor needs be be greater than 1.


-2 means the image would increase in size and be inverted.

2 means the image would increase in size.


The two correct scale factors are -2 and 2.
