Answer:
It is a negative correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
As the x value increases the y value decreases. This causes it to be a negative.
Answer:
y= 2/3x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so basically we want to put it in the form y=mx+b where m is 2/3 and passes through the point (9,5). So sub in the x and y of the point in brackets into the equation. 5= 2/3(9) + b and solve for b so b = -1. Therefore the equation is y=2/3x -1
Yes...thats what u want to do. you want to get the x terms on one side and everything else on the other side.
8x = 7x + 3....so we will subtract 7x from both sides
8x - 7x = 7x - 7x + 3....simplify
1x, or just x = 3 (because ur 7x's cancelled each other out)
so ur answer is : x = 3
and u can check ur answer by subbing it back into the original equation.
8x = 7x + 3
8(3) = 7(3) + 3
24 = 21 + 3
24 = 24 (correct)
