1) The y- axis is where x = 0, so the line "y = -1/2x - 3" will cross the y-axis when x = 0. You plug in "x = 0" into the equation, and get y = 0 -3, so y = -3. That means the line " y = -1/2x - 3" will cross the y-axis ar (0, -3)
2) If there are 2 parallel lines, then there is no solution, because the definition of parallel lines is, " 2 lines in the same plane, that never meet." That makes the solution inconsistent.
You don't even have to look up the definition of 'standard deviation'. You only
have to remember that 'smaller standard deviation' means 'less spread-out'.
First, let's find the mean (average). It's not supposed to change:
1/7th of (65 + 71 + 77 + 80 + 82 + 90 + 96) = 561/7 = <u>80 and 1/7</u> .
Now, just pick 7 scores that total 561 and are all bunched up.
The easiest way would be 80, 80, 80, 80, 80, 80, 81 .
But that's so easy that it feels like cheating.
Let's say <u>77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, and 84</u> .
I don't know the second on but the first is pint
Answer:
missing side length = 9
Step-by-step explanation:

a = 6
b = 7
c = missing side





Solution: We are given the population mean 
Now, in order to find which shift's mean is closest to population mean, we will find the mean of each shift.
The mean of shift 1 is:

The mean of shift 2 is:

The mean of shift 3 is:

The mean of shift 4 is:

We clearly see the mean of shift 2 is close to the population mean. Hence the option B) Shift 2 is correct.
