Answer: ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* No, they are not equivalent. *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

Step-by-step explanation:

♥*♡∞:。.The first expression is equal to 3x + 24 - 9x, or 24 - 6x, and the second equation equals 6-6x. If you set them equal to eachother, you get 24 - 6x = 6 - 6x. The 6x's cancel out, so you're left with 24 = 6, which is not true. The expressions are not equivalent. 。.。:∞♡*♥

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

0 = 4x + 4

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Subtract 4 on both sides:                    -4 = 4x
  2. Divide 4 on both sides:                        -1 = x
  3. Rewrite:                                                 x = -1

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Data set D does not contain the value 128, which is the median value.

Data set C does not contain the outlier value 91.

Data set A contains value 168, which does not show up on the plot.

The only remaining choice is B.

_____

In order, the data values of set B are ...

... 91, 114, 120, 126, 128, 128 134, 136, 139, 142, 152

The median value of these 11 is the 6th one: 128. The median values of the remaining two sets of 5 are 120 and 139, making these values the quartiles at the ends of the box. The value 91 is more than 1.5 times the IQR (19) below the 1st quartile, so is considered an outlier. (The cutoff is 120-1.5·19=91.5.)

A line passes through the point, (−8,7) and has a slope of −5/4. Please help...
o-na [289]

Answer:

5x + 4y + 12 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the point-slope equation of a straight line:  y - k = m(x -  h):

Here we are given the point (h, k):  (-8, 7) and the slope m = -5/4.  Inserting this info into the equation give above, we get:        y - 7 = (-5/4)(x + 8).

We must put this equation into "standard form" Ax + By + C = 0.

Multiply all three terms by 4 to remove fractions:  4y - 28 = -5(x + 8), or

4y - 28 + 5x + 40 = 0

Rearranging these terms, we get 5x + 4y + 12 = 0, which is the desired equation in standard form.

Each of the following data sets has a mean of x = 10. (i) 8 9 10 11 12 (ii) 7 9 10 11 13 (iii) 7 8 10 12 13 (a) Without doing an
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are 3 data sets with values as:

(i) 8 9 10 11 12   ... Mean =10

(ii) 7 9 10 11 13    ... Mean =10

(iii) 7 8 10 12 13   ... Mean =10

We see that  data set shows mean deviations as

(i) -2 -1 0 1 2  

(ii) -3 -1 0 1 3    

(iii) -3 -2 0 2 3  

Since variance is the square of std deviation, we find that std deviation is larger when variance is larger.

Variance is the sum of squares of (x-mean).  Whenever x-mean increases variance increases and also std deviation.

Hence we find that without calculations also (i) has least std dev followed by (ii) and then (iii)

(i) (ii) (iii) is the order.

b) Between (i) and (ii) we find that 3 entries are the same and 2 entries differ thus increasing square by 9-4 twice.  But between (ii) and (iii) we find that

increase in square value would be 4-1 twice. Obviously the latter is less.

Well the real answer is three hundred-ninety three point five. So numbers around it could be three hundred and fifty and four hundred. An estimate could be three hundred and seventy five.
