Answer:

y = -4x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, one way we can find the equation is to plug the x and y values into y = mx + b

We m (slope) is -4 so

y = -4x + b

We want to find b so we plug in x and y (-2 and 9)

9 = -4 (-2) + b

9 = 8 + b

In this case, b is 1

Now we plug this to make our equation,

y = -4x + 1

Quadrilateral ABCD is translated 6 units right and 5 units down to create quadrilateral EFGH. Determine the correct orientation

Vlad [161]

Try this suggested option (all the details are in the attachment), the correct orientation is marked with red and green colours.

P.S. The point C has coordinates: (3;1). If to traslate it 6 units right and 5 units down, then (3+6;1-5) ⇒ (9;-4). The same principle is for the others points A, B and D. Note, after translation point A is point E, B⇒F, C⇒G and D⇒H.

Let the following sample of 8 observations be drawn from a normal population with unknown mean and standard deviation:

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

$\= x = 18.5$ , $\sigma = 5.15$

$15.505 < \mu < 21.495$

$14.93 < \mu < 22.069$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are are told that

The sample data is 21, 14, 13, 24, 17, 22, 25, 12

The sample size is n = 8

Generally the ample mean is evaluated as

$\= x = \frac{\sum x }{n}$

$\= x = \frac{ 21 + 14 + 13 + 24 + 17 + 22+ 25 + 12 }{8}$

$\= x = 18.5$

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x- \=x )^2}{n}}$

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum ((21 - 18.5)^2 + (14-18.5)^2+ (13-18.5)^2+ (24-18.5)^2+ (17-18.5)^2+ (22-18.5)^2+ (25-18.5)^2+ (12 -18.5)^2 )}{8}}$

$\sigma = 5.15$

considering part b

Given that the confidence level is 90% then the significance level is evaluated as

$\alpha = 100-90$

$\alpha = 10\%$

$\alpha = 0.10$

Next we obtain the critical value of $\frac{ \alpha }{2}$ from the normal distribution table the value is

$Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 1.645$

The margin of error is mathematically represented as

$E = Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }$

=> $E =1.645 * \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }$

=> $E = 2.995$

The 90% confidence interval is evaluated as

$\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E$

substituting values

$18.5 - 2.995 < \mu < 18.5 + 2.995$

$15.505 < \mu < 21.495$

considering part c

Given that the confidence level is 95% then the significance level is evaluated as

$\alpha = 100-95$

$\alpha = 5\%$

$\alpha = 0.05$

Next we obtain the critical value of $\frac{ \alpha }{2}$ from the normal distribution table the value is

$Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 1.96$

The margin of error is mathematically represented as

$E = Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }$

=> $E =1.96 * \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }$

=> $E = 3.569$

The 95% confidence interval is evaluated as

$\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E$

substituting values

$18.5 - 3.569 < \mu < 18.5 + 3.569$

$14.93 < \mu < 22.069$

How do u graph x+y=-2

sdas [7]

Answer:

The answer is

$y = - x - 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is

$x + y = - 2$

First we have to bring x to the other side se we subtract x from both sides

$x + y = - 2 \\ - x \: \: \: = - 2 - x$

Then we have to put it in order so the answer is

$y = - x - 2$
