Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
y = (2/3)x + 16
Discussion:
Given line:
2x - 3y = 6 => add 3y to both sides
2x = 6 + 3y => subtract 6 from both sides
2x -6 = 3y => divide both sides by 3
y =(2/3)x - 2
The slope of this line, m, (2/3) and any line parallel to the given line has the same slope. We are looking for the line with slope (2/3) passing through (-6, 12)
y = (2/3)x + b => substitute (x,y) = (-6, 12) in the equation
12 = (2/3)(-6) + b => add (2/3)(6) = 12/3 = 4
12 + 4 = (2/3)(-6) + (2/3)(6) + b => as (2/3)(-6) + (2/3)(6) = 0
12 +4 = 0 + b =>
b = 16
Hence the equation of the parallel line through ( -6,12) is
y = mx + b
=(2/3)x + 16
Check: is (-6,12) on this line? Does 12 = (2/3)(-6) + 16 = -4 + 16 = 12? Yes!
Thank you,
MrB
Parallel lines will have the same slope.
so if one of the lines has a slope of 1.3, then its parallel line will also have a slope of 1.3
Answer:
There is significant evidence at 0.05
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
After performing hypothesis., with confidence level being α = 0.05 ; The researcher decides to reject the Null. The conclusion will be ;
There is significant evidence to reject the Null at confidence level of 0.05
The graph shows us that the slope of f(x) is -2. Now we gotta find the slope of g(x) to compare it to that of f(x). The equation of g(x) is in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept), so the slope is given to us for that one as well: it's -6. A line with a slope of -6 will be steeper than a line with a slope of -3, therefore the answer is B - the slope of f(x) is less than the slope of g(x).
Hope this helps.
Answer: $5.22 (in the year 2021)
========================================================
Explanation:
The year 2021 is 22 years after 1999 since
2021 - 1999 = 22
That means we'll plug x = 22 into the equation given to us
P = 144*(0.86)^x
P = 144*(0.86)^22
P = 5.21588994768589 which is approximate
P = 5.22 rounding to the nearest cent
The share price is about $5.22 in the year 2021.
This assumes that the 14% decline keeps happening year after year; however, in reality, stocks are more complicated and fluctuate more randomly if anything.
