Answer:
The red segment is from 1/4 to 3/4.
3/4 - 1/4 = 2/4
2/4 = 1/2
1/2
This answer can also be found by seeing there are four equal boxes making up the one larger box, since two out of the four boxes are filled then the fraction would be 2/4, which simplifies to 1/2
Answer:
It's not possible to reach a conclusion about who will vote candidate Taylor because this is a random sample and not a population census or experiment.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is impossible to reach a conclusion about the proportion of all likely voters who plan to vote for candidate Taylor because the 1,000 likely voters in the sample represent only a small fraction of all likely voters in a large city.
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the gradient is given by:
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1), where two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are given.
Thus if we have a gradient of 2.5 and two points (3, 8) and (x, 13), we can substitute this into the above formula for the gradient to get:
2.5 = (13 - 8)/(x - 3)
2.5(x - 3) = 5 (Multiply both sides by (x - 3))
x - 3 = 2 (Divide both sides by 2.5)
x = 5 (Add 3 to both sides)
Thus, the value of x is 5.
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Has a slope of 2 and passes through (10,17)
Using the slope intercept form
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 2x+b
Substitute the point into the equation
17 = 2(10)+b
17 = 20+b
Subtract 20 from each side
17-20 =b
-3 =b
y = 2x-3
b. passes through (1,-4) and (2,-5)
First find the slope
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-5- -4)/(2-1)
= (-5+4)/(2-1)
= -1/1
= -1
Using the slope intercept form
y = -x+b
Substitute a point into the equation
-4 = -1(1) +b
-4 = -1+b
Add 1 to each side
-3 = b
y = -x+3
