-5/8c = 20....multiply both sides by -8/5 (this cancels out the -5/8 on the left
c = 20(-8/5)
c = -160/5
c = - 32

check..
-5/8(-32) = 20
160/8 = 20
20 = 20 (correct)

so c = -32

The water diet requires you to drink two cups of water every half hour from the time you get up until you go to bed, but otherwi

Answer:

$7-3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= -14.698$

$7+3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= 28.698$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

Weight before diet 180 125 240 150

Weight after diet 170 130 215 152

We define the random variable $D = before-after$ and we can calculate the inidividual values:

D: 10, -5, 25, -2

And we can calculate the mean with this formula:

$\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

And the deviation with:

$s= \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i- \bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And after replace we got:

$\bar D= 7, s_d = 13.638$

And the confidence interval for this case would be given by:

$\bar D \pm t_{\alpha/2} \frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df = n-1= 4-1=3$

For the 95% of confidence the value for the significance is $\alpha=0.05$ and the critical value would be $t_{\alpha/2}= 3.182$ . And replacing we got:

$7-3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= -14.698$

$7+3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= 28.698$

Can someone help with this problem please? Thanks.

First, find the slope of the line. Use the two points given, (-4,0) and (4,2), in the slope formula rise over run. The change in rise is 2 and the change in run is 8, meaning that the slope is 2/8, simplified to 1/4. The y-intercept is 1, shown by the graph and the dashed line and shaded area means that the inequality symbol must be <. Slope-intercept form is shown as y = mx + b, so after putting our information in to the equation the answer is y < 1/4x + 1. Hope this helps!
