Answer:

a = - 27

Step-by-step explanation:

- $\frac{2}{3}$ a - 6 = 12 ( add 6 to both sides )

- $\frac{2}{3}$ a = 18 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

- 2a = 54 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

a = - 27

Rewrite the equation 2x + 6y = 7 in slope-intercept form.

4vir4ik [10]

Answer: y = -2x + 1 1/6

Steps:
2x + 6y = 7
2x + y = 7/6
y = 7/6
y = -2x + 7/6
y = -2x + 1 1/6

Lee las situaciones y realiza lo siguiente con cada una:

Julli [10]

Answer:

Part 1) see the explanation

Part 2) see the explanation

Part 3) see the explanation

Part 4) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question in English is</em></u>

Read the situations and do the following with each one:

Write down the magnitudes involved

Write which magnitude is the independent variable and which is the dependent variable

It represents the function that describes the situation

SITUATIONS:

1) A machine prints 840 pages every 30 minutes.

2) An elevator takes 6 seconds to go up two floors.

3) A company rents a car at S/ 480 for 12 days.

4) 10 kilograms of papaya cost S/ 35

Part 1) we have

A machine prints 840 pages every 30 minutes

Let

x ----> the time in minutes (represent the variable independent or input value)

y ---> the number of pages that the machine print (represent the dependent variable or output value)

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In this problem

we have a a proportional variation

The value of the constant of proportionality is equal to

$k=\frac{y}{x}$

we have

$y=840\ pages\\x=30\ minutes$

substitute

$k=\frac{840}{30}=28\ pages/minute$

The linear equation is

$y=28x$

Part 2) we have

An elevator takes 6 seconds to go up two floors.

Let

x ----> the time in seconds (represent the variable independent or input value)

y ---> the number of floors (represent the dependent variable or output value)

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In this problem

we have a a proportional variation

The value of the constant of proportionality is equal to

$k=\frac{y}{x}$

we have

$y=2\ floors\\x=6\ seconds$

substitute

$k=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}\ floors/second$

The linear equation is

$y=\frac{1}{3}x$

Part 3) we have

A company rents a car at S/ 480 for 12 days.

Let

x ----> the number of days (represent the variable independent or input value)

y ---> the cost of rent a car (represent the dependent variable or output value)

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In this problem

we have a a proportional variation

The value of the constant of proportionality is equal to

$k=\frac{y}{x}$

we have

$y=\$480\\x=12\ days$

substitute

$k=\frac{480}{12}=\$40\ per\ day$

The linear equation is

$y=40x$

Part 4) we have

10 kilograms of papaya cost S/ 35

Let

x ----> the kilograms of papaya (represent the variable independent or input value)

y ---> the cost (represent the dependent variable or output value)

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In this problem

we have a a proportional variation

The value of the constant of proportionality is equal to

$k=\frac{y}{x}$

we have

$y=\$35\\x=10\ kg$

substitute

$k=\frac{35}{10}=\$3.5\ per\ kg$

The linear equation is

$y=3.5x$

(-5,-4) rotated 270° counterclockwise

stepladder [879]

Answer:

(4, - 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a counterclockwise rotation about the origin of 270°

a point (x, y ) → (- y, x ) , thus

(- 5, - 4 ) → (4, - 5 )

G two samples, one of size 14 and the second of size 13, are selected to test the difference between two population means. how m

vovikov84 [41]

Note :- If sample size n > 30 OR Population standard deviation σ is given then We use Z test.

If sample size n < 30 AND Population standard deviation σ is unknown then we use t test.

In this question we are not given Population standard deviations σ1 and σ2.

Also n1 = 14 and n2 = 13 both sample sizes are LESS than 30.

Therefore we use t test.

Given :- Assume the population standard deviations are equal. ( σ1 = σ2)

then Degrees of freedom = n1 + n2 - 2 = 14 + 13 - 2 = 25.

(kindly find the image attached with this solution)

Answer :- Therefore 25 degrees of freedom are used to find the t critical value.
