Answer:

Firstly, you can use the slope and the first point to find a second point:

2 + 1 = x2 and 6 + 5 = y2 because the slope is 5/1.

Next you can write the equation in point-slope form (remember point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1):

y - 11 = 5(x - 3)

Another equation would be B because B is the correct equation if you choose 2 as x2 and 6 as y2.

Hope this helps!

First, let's write down this inequality:
<span>There are at least 245 students enrolled in the school.

y≥245

This inequality says what the sentence says!

now, the number of teachers must be:
x≥2*(y/25)
(two times the number of groups of students of 25!)

so those two inequalities, taken together will be the answer!

Answer:

A t-score of 2.0244 should be used to find the 99% confidence interval for the population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 39 - 1 = 38

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 38 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 0.99( $t_{99}$ ). So we have T = 2.0244.
