What is the equation of the line in slope intercept form using these points?

Mathematics
1 answer:
deff fn [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

y = -x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The slope-intercept form of any linear equation is y = mx + b, where y = y-coordinate, m = slope, x = x-coordinate, and b = y-intercept.

2. To find the slope given two points, we can use the formula \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} and plug in the corresponding variable.

  • \frac{5-(-2)}{-6-1}
  • \frac{5+2}{-7}
  • \frac{7}{-7}
  • -1

3. Okay, so the slope is -1x or just -x. This means that the equation looks like this so far: y = -x + b

4. To find b, the y-intercept, we can take the equation of b = y_1 - m * x_1 and plug in the values!

  • b = -2-(-1)*1
  • b = -2 + 1 * 1
  • b = -1 * 1
  • b = -1

5. Now that we have our y-intercept and slope, let's plug in those values and find the equation!

  • y = -x - 1

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = -x - 1. I hope this helped you!

Find the regression​ equation, letting the first variable be the predictor​ (x) variable. Using the listed​ lemon/crash data, wh
kakasveta [241]

The regression analysis evaluates the amount of relationship that exists

between the variables in the analysis.

  • The regression equation is; \underline{\overline y = -0.00255 \cdot \overline x + 16.47268}
  • The prediction is worthwhile because it gives an idea of the observed Crash Fatality Rate and it is therefore approximately correct.

Reasons:

First part;

The given data is presented as follows;

\begin{tabular}{|cc|c|}Lemon Imports (x) &&Crash Fatality Rate\\232&&16\\268&&15.7\\361&&15.4\\472&&15.5\\535&&15\end{array}\right]

The least squares regression equation is; \overline y =  b \cdot \overline x + c

Where;

b = \mathbf{\dfrac{\sum \left(x_i - \bar x\right) \times \left(y_i - \bar y\right) }{\sum \left(x_i - \bar x\right )^2 }}

\overline y = The mean crash fatality = 15.52

\overline x = The mean lemon import = 373.6

Therefore;

b = \dfrac{-171.36 }{67093.2 } = -0.00255

c = \overline y - b·\overline x = 15.52 - (-0.00255)×373.6 = 16.47268

Therefore;

  • The regression equation is \underline{\overline y = -0.00255 \cdot \overline x + 16.47268}

Second part;

When the imports is 425 metric tons of lemon, we have;

\overline y = -0.00255 × 425 + 16.47268 = 15.38893 ≈ 15.4

Therefore;

When the import is 425 metric tons, the Crash Fatality Rate ≈ 15.4

Given that the predicted value is between the values for 268 and 535, we

have that the prediction is approximately correct or worthwhile

<u>The prediction is worthwhile</u>

The number of freshmen entering college in a certain year is 621. What type of data is 621?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:  Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

The number of freshmen entering college in a certain year = 621

It is considered as discrete data.

Since we know the definition of Discrete which refers to all types of data which take only numerical values.

It is based on counts.

According to question, we have given the exact number of freshmen instead of any range or interval.

Hence, Third option is correct.

K divide by 6 + 8 = 5
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

k= -18

Step-by-step explanation:

5 = (k/6) + 8 so 5-8 = k/6

-3=k/6 then -3 multiplied by 6 = k which is -18 = k

-18/6= -3

-3+8=5

Зx +1 &lt;10<br> What is the answer for this
balandron [24]

Answer:

x < 3

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

  1. Brackets
  2. Parenthesis
  3. Exponents
  4. Multiplication
  5. Division
  6. Addition
  7. Subtraction
  • Left to Right

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Inequality</u>

3x + 1 < 10

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Subtract 1 on both sides:                    3x < 9
  2. Divide 3 on both sides:                       x < 3

Here we see that any value <em>x</em> smaller than 3 would work as a solution to the inequality.
