Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula and equate to 4

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2    }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, a)

d = \sqrt{(2-2)^2+(a+1)^2} = \sqrt{0+(a+1)^2} = \sqrt{(a+1)^2} = a + 1 then

a + 1 = 4 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

a = 3

Nesterboy [21]
The area of the box is equal to 9^3= 729 in^3
729<1000

Final answer: No since the volume of the box is less than the total volume of the cubes

You are conducting a study of three types of feed supplements for cattle to test their effectiveness in producing weight gain am
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

since we have four groups, the number of population k = 4

Option C. 4 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Number of group k = 4

the number of cases in each group = 30

so

n = 4 × 30

n = 120

SS_total  = df = n - 1

= 120 - 1

= 199

SS_between = k - 1

= 4 - 1

= 3

since we have four groups, the number of population k = 4

Option C. 4 is the correct answer

Which of the following is an equation of the line passing through the points (-1, 4) and (1, 2)?.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

y-4 =-1(x+1)  point slope form

y-2 = -1(x-1)

y = -x +3  slope intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 2 points, we can find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (2-4)/(1--1)

   (2-4)/(1+1)

     -2/2

   =-1

The slope is -1

Then we can use point slope form to find an equation

y-y1 =m(x-x1)

y-4 = -1(x--1)

y-4 =-1(x+1)  point slope form

Using the other point

y-2 = -1(x-1)

Distribute the -1

y-2 = -1x +1

Add 2 to each side

y-2+2 = -x+1+2

y = -x +3  slope intercept form
