Given the point (1, 3) and a slope of 2, write an equation in point-slope form.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

y=2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given a point and a slope, we can use the point slope formula

y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1})

m is the slope. In this case, m is 2.

y1 is the y coordinate of the point given. y1 is 3.

x1 is the x coordinate of the point given. x1 is 1

y-3=2(x-1)

Now, we need to get the equation into point slope form: y=mx+b

To do this, we need to get y by itself

First, distribute the 2 on the right

y-3=2*x+ 2*-1

y-3=2x-2

Add 3 to both sides

y-3+3=2x-2+3

y=2x+1

The equation is in y=mx+b form, so our final equation is:

y=2x+1

Newborn babies: A study conducted by the Center for Population Economics at the University of Chicago studied the birth weights
Fed [463]

Answer:

a) 615

b) 715

c) 344

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

  • Given that,  A study conducted by the Center for Population Economics at the University of Chicago studied the birth weights of 732 babies born in New York. The mean weight was 3311 grams with a standard deviation of 860 grams

  • Since the distribution is approximately bell-shaped, we can use the normal distribution and calculate the Z scores for each scenario.

Z = (x - mean)/standard deviation

Now,

For x = 4171,  Z = (4171 - 3311)/860 = 1  

  • P(Z < 1) using Z table for areas for the standard normal distribution, you will get 0.8413.

Next, multiply that by the sample size of 732.

  • Therefore 732(0.8413) = 615.8316, so approximately 615 will weigh less than 4171  

 

  • For part b, use the same method except x is now 1591.    

Z = (1581 - 3311)/860 = -2    

  • P(Z > -2) , using the Z table is 1 - 0.0228 = 0.9772 . Now 732(0.9772) = 715.3104, so approximately 715 will weigh more than 1591.

 

  • For part c, we now need to get two Z scores, one for 3311 and another for 5031.

Z1 = (3311 - 3311)/860 = 0

Z2 = (5031 - 3311)/860= 2  

P(0 ≤ Z ≤ 2) = 0.9772 - 0.5000 = 0.4772

  approximately 47% fall between 0 and 1 standard deviation, so take 0.47 times 732 ⇒ 732×0.47 = 344.

There is a strong positive linear correlation between rainfall and the number of oranges a tree produces. Does this mean that mo
8_murik_8 [283]
No; just because there is a correlation does not prove causation. 

The correlation says that as the amount of rainfall increases, the amount of oranges produced increases as well.  It does not state what causes it.
