Formula: y = mx + b

m being the slope

Slope given: -2, plug it in

Y = -2x + b

Now find y intercept (b)

Plug in the point (5,-11)

-11 = -2(5) + b

-11 = -10 + b, b = -1

Solution: y = -2x -1

13x-1
Is the answer, you have to get all you terms that being x+6+12x-7
6-7=-1
X+12x=13x
Put them together with the Xs first

Answer:

b = 7 $\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the tangent ratio to solve for b

and the exact value

tan30° = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ , thus

tan30° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{7}{b}$ and

$\frac{7}{b}$ = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ ( cross- multiply )

b = 7 $\sqrt{3}$

Hello a value is missing in your question below is the value

samples of n = 10

answer : 24.63 < μ < 25.370

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size = n = 10

Z∝/2 = Z0.0256 = 1.95

next calculate for margin of error

E = Z∝/2 * ( 0.6 / / $\sqrt{10}$ )

= 0.370

therefore at 94.87% confidence interval the estimated population mean is

x - 0.370 < μ < x + 0.370

25 - 0.370 < μ < 25 + 0.370

24.63 < μ < 25.370
