Answer:

(x,-y): (2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

M=(x+x)/2,(y+y)/2

Given (1,4)=

\frac{3x - 4}{2}

This implies:

1 =  \frac{3x - 4}{2}

3x - 4 = 2 \\ 3x = 2 + 4 \\  \frac{3x }{3}  =  \frac{6}{3}  \\ x = 2

In a similar way,

4 =  \frac{ - 2 + 5y}{2}  \\  - 2 + 5y = 8 \\ 5y = 10 \\ y = 2

The question demanded (x,-y)

Hence(2,-2) is the answer

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

there is insufficient evidence to support the claim that more than 10% of the employees are paid minimum wage.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A marketing organization claims that more than 10% of its employees are paid minimum wage.

The null hypothesis is:

H_o : p = 10

The alternative hypothesis is:

H_1 : p > 10

If a hypothesis test is performed that fails to reject the null hypothesis, how would this decision be interpreted

i.e Decision Rule: fails to reject the null hypothesis

Then the interpretation of the decision is that, there is insufficient evidence to support the claim that more than 10% of the employees are paid minimum wage.

The function y=40x describes how far from home Shu Ling is as she drives from Dallas to Miami. Graph the function. Use the graph
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

You can see the graph below.

To answer the question, you need to draw a vertical line from x = 12h up, until the line meets with the line.

Once the line meets with the line, draw a horizontal line from that point, and the value where this line intersects with the y-axis will be the distance from home after 12 hours.

The graph is kinda hard to read because the line is really steep, the green line is the equation y = 40*x

the red line is a line at x = 12

The black dashed line is the horizontal line that intersects with the y-axis.

In the graph, you can see that the dashed line intersects the y-axis at around y = 475.

Then a good estimate is that the distance after 12 hours is 475 (miles).

Now, we can compare this with the direct calculation, just replace x by 12 in the given line:

y = 40*12 = 480.

So our estimation is really accurate.
