If you look carefully at the graph, you may see that the slope of the line is
3-4 -1
---------------- = ------ = m
7-4 3

thus, you have the slope of the line and two points on the line. Suppose we
choose the point (4,4) and subst. the known slope and the coordinates of this point into the point-slope formula for the eqn of a str line:

y-y1 = m (x-x1)

y-4 = (-1/3)(x-4)

This is the desired equation. You could, if you wished, change this into slope-intercept form.

Nerissa paid a total of $8 for 4 packs of pencils she purchased from the convenience store. Let p represent the cost of one pack

BARSIC [14]

Answer: 4*p=8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use inverse operation to answer this equation.

write out you problem: 4 x p =8
The inverse of multiplication is division
you do 4/4 which gives you one but the 4 will cancel itself out
Do 8/4 which gives you 2
under the equation write p = 2
And be sure to line the p up with the p, the equal sign with the equal sign, and the 2 stays where it is ( which should be already lined up with the 8)

Solve the system thank you

Lunna [17]

Answer:

infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

replace x with 3y + 9 in the second equation

9 - (3y + 9) = -3y ➡ 9 -3y -9 = -3y ➡9-9 = 3y-3y ➡ 0 = 0

this means whatever numver you write instead of y there will be a solution.

I need help, I don't know how to do it.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this problem we can use the Pythagorean theorem

UT and TL are the legs, while LU is the hypotenuse

We have to find LU so we can proceed like this

x^2 + (x+1)^2 = LU^2

x^2 + x^2 + 1 + 2x = LU^2

2x^2 + 2x + 1 = LU^2

LU = +/- $\sqrt{2x^2+2x+1$

we have to take only the positive value because a length can’t be negative.

2x^2 + 2x + 1 is positive for every value of x, so the final answer is

$\sqrt{2x^2+2x+1}$

We are conducting a hypothesis test to determine if fewer than 80% of ST 311 Hybrid students complete all modules before class.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.881 -0.8}{\sqrt{\frac{0.8(1-0.8)}{110}}}=2.124$

Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.8$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.8$

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z$

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

Be Careful with the system of hypothesis!

If we conduct the test with the following hypothesis:

Null hypothesis: $p\leq 0.8$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.8$

$p_v =P(Z>2.124)=0.013$

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=110 represent the random sample taken

X=97 represent the students who completed the modules before class

$\hat p=\frac{97}{110}=0.882$ estimated proportion of students who completed the modules before class

$p_o=0.8$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v{/tex} represent the p value (variable of interest) 2) Concepts and formulas to use We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is less than 0.8 or 80%: Null hypothesis:[tex]p\geq 0.8$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.8$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value $p_o$ .

3) Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.881 -0.8}{\sqrt{\frac{0.8(1-0.8)}{110}}}=2.124$

4) Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z$

Be Careful with the system of hypothesis!

If we conduct the test with the following hypothesis:

Null hypothesis: $p\leq 0.8$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.8$

$p_v =P(Z>2.124)=0.013$

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.
