Answer:

y=1/5x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is written y=mx+b.

y- needs to be by itself in this form.

m- the slope.

x- always to the right side of the slope, or m.

b- y-intercept.

Now that we know this, all we have to do is plug in the numbers we have. So when we plug this in, the equation looks like this:

y=1/5x+5

Hope this helps you and have a great day :3

Hello there!

8 - 2x = -8x + 14

Let's start by subtracting 8 to both sides

8 - 2x - 8 = -8x + 14 - 8

-2x = -8x + 6

Let's add 8x to both sides

-2x + 8x = -8x + 6 +8x

6x = 6

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 6/6

x = 1

The correct answer is option D

I hope this helps!

With a standard deviation of 6 minutes, we will test the hypothesis that σ = 6 against the alternative that σ < 6 if a random sample of the test times of 20 high school seniors has a standard deviation s = 4.51. use a 0.05 level of significance.
