Answer:

$y = 2x + 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope.

$\frac{ 5 + 1}{1 + 2 } = 2$

so m is 2

$y = 2x + c$

Plug one the equations in to find c.

$- 1 = 2( - 2) + c$

$- 1 = - 4 + c$

$3 = c$

so the equation is

$y = 2x + 3$

Answer:

$\frac{2}{5}±\frac{\sqrt{17}}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(5x-2)^2=17 \\ 5x-2=±\sqrt{17} \\ 5x = 2 ± \sqrt{17} \\ x=\frac{2}{5}± \frac{\sqrt{17}}{5}$

Don't mind the $±$

Black_prince [1.1K]

An appropriate cautious reading of a receipt entail making sure that the

items charged are the same as the items received and checking to see if all

of the discounts were applied properly,

When an item is bought, a receipt is usually issued which confirms that

payment has been made for the goods or services. Receipt however should

be properly checked to detect any error in the course of the transaction.

Making sure that the items charged are the same as the items received and

checking to see if all of the discounts were applied properly should be done

to avoid shortages of the resources of the parties involved.

A small town has 2000 families. The average number of children per family is mu = 2.5, with a standard deviation sigma = 1.7. A

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Let X the random variable that represent the number of children per fammili of a population, and for this case we know the following info:

Where $\mu=2.5$ and $\sigma=1.7$

We select a sample of n =64 >30 and we can apply the central limit theorem. From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And for this case the standard error would be:

$\sigma_{\bar X} = \frac{1.7}{\sqrt{64}}= 0.2125$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the number of children per fammili of a population, and for this case we know the following info:

Where $\mu=2.5$ and $\sigma=1.7$

We select a sample of n =64 >30 and we can apply the central limit theorem. From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And for this case the standard error would be:

$\sigma_{\bar X} = \frac{1.7}{\sqrt{64}}= 0.2125$

Matthew wants to buy a new pair of jeans. If the jeans were originally $65.00, but are on sale with a 10% discount, how much wil

sesenic [268]

10% off means the jeans will sell for 90% of the original price ( 100% - 10% = 90%)

Multiply the original price by 90%

65.00 x 0.90 = 58.50

He will pay $58.50
