Answer <u>(assuming it can be in slope-intercept form)</u>:

y = -\frac{6}{5} x+3  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, use the slope formula m =\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} to find the slope of the line. Substitute the x and y values of the given points into the formula and solve:

m =\frac{(-3)-(3)}{(5)-(0)} \\m = \frac{-3-3}{5-0}\\m = \frac{-6}{5}

So, the slope is -\frac{6}{5}.  

2) Now, use the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b to write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form. All you need to do is substitute real values for the m and b in the formula.

Since m represents the slope, substitute -\frac{6}{5} for it. Since b represents the y-intercept, substitute 3 for it. (Remember, the y-intercept is the point at which the line hits the y-axis. All points on the y-axis have an x-value of 0. Notice how the given point (0,3) has an x-value, too, so it must be the line's y-intercept.) This gives the following equation and answer:

y = -\frac{6}{5} x+3

today only, a sofa is being sold at a 36% discount. The sale price is $560. what was the price yesterday?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let yesterday's price  be x

Discount percentage = 36%

Sale price = $ 560

(100-36)% of x = 560

64 % *x = 560

\frac{64}{100}*x=560\\\\x=560*\frac{100}{64}\\\\x=875

Yesterday's price = $ 875

Wewaii [24]
<span>Based on the rules of statistics</span>

 68% of the data falls within 1 standard deviation of the mean

95% of the data falls within 2 standard deviation of the mean

99% of the data falls within 3 standard deviation of the mean

 20 falls between the range of -56 to 56 (from the given 95%)

Hence we accept the null hypothesis; else, if the mean falls outside the range, we reject the null hypothesis.
