Answer: in your graphplot the point of the y-intercept(which in this case is 1, hence the “+1”)

Step-by-step explanation:

Next 5x is the same as -5/+1 which pretty much means you have to go down 5 times and 1 to the right in a repeated motion until you can no longer plot that point.

then you do the opposite of -5x which is -1/+5 which means you have to go up 5 times and 1 to the left in a repeated motion until you can’t

Find the slope of every line that is parallel to the line on the graph.

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

-1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

What are parallel lines?

Lines that are parallel never touch. They can extend infinitely and they will still never touch. In order for this to happen the slope of the two lines must be the same. So if we want to find the slope of every line that is parallel to the line on the graph, we simply find the slope of the line of the graph.

Finding the slope

We can find the slope using the following formula:

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Where the x and y values are derived from any given points on the line (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

Here the given points are (-5,-1) and (0,-2)

So we have (x1,y1) = (-5,-1) meaning x1 = -5 and y1 = -1

We also have (x2,y2) = (0,-2) meaning x2 = 0 and y2 = -2

Now we plug these values into the formula

Recall formula : $Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

==> Plug in x1 = -5 , y1 = -1 , x2 = 0 and y2 = -2

$Slope=\frac{-2-(-1)}{0-5}$

==> simplify numerator and denominator

$slope = \frac{1}{-5}$

So the slope of the line is -1/5

This means the slope of any parallel line to that line would also have a slope of -1/5

Hi!

I can help you with joy!

The answer is 2x= 6x.

This is an example of direct variation!

Answer:

First question: LCL = 522, UCL = 1000.5

Second question: A sample size no smaller than 418 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

First question:

Lower bound:

0.36 of 1450. So

0.36*1450 = 522

Upper bound:

0.69 of 1450. So

0.69*1450 = 1000.5

LCL = 522, UCL = 1000.5

Second question:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

The project manager believes that p will turn out to be approximately 0.11.

This means that $\pi = 0.11$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

The project manager wants to estimate the proportion to within 0.03

This means that the sample size needed is given by n, and n is found when M = 0.03. So

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.03 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.11*0.89}{n}}$

$0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.11*0.89}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.11*0.89}}{0.03}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.11*0.89}}{0.03})^2$

$n = 417.9$

Rounding up

A sample size no smaller than 418 is needed.

what's the slope? Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

If u = 6 feet, v = 7 feet, w = 4 feet, x = 7 feet, y = 13 feet, and z = 4 feet, what is the area of the object?

Anastaziya [24]

It depends what type of shape it is if it were a rectangle it would be l x w x h but what a see is a 6 sided figure so it should be a hexagon but a hexagon has all equal sides so it would depend what type of shape it is
