Add up all the numbers & divide by the number of numbers. That should give you the mean.
Add 1
0.7+1=1.7
1.7+1= 2.7
etc., etc.
Answer:
The desired equation is y = (-8/3)x + 26/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Moving from (1,6) to (4, -2) involves an increase of 3 in x and a decrease of 8 in y. Thus, the slope of the line thru these two points is m = rise / run = -8/3.
Using the slope-intercept form of the eq'n of a straight line and inserting the data given (slope = m = -8/3, x = 4, y = -2), we get:
y = mx + b => -2 = (-8/3)(4) + b, or -2 = -32/3 + b
Multiply all terms by 3 to clear out the fraction:
-6 = -32 + 3b.
Then 26 = 3b, and b = 26/3.
The desired equation is y = (-8/3)x + 26/3.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
2x + y = 3
-2x + 5y = -9
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine equations: 6y = -6
- Divide 6 on both sides: y = -1
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define equation: 2x + y = 3
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: 2x - 1 = 3
- Isolate <em>y</em> term: 2x = 4
- Isolate <em>y</em>: x = 2
