Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

n = the smaller even integer

n +2 = the next even integer

The wording of the question translates into:

2n + (n+2) = -4

3n +2 = -4

3n = -6

n = -2

Statistic significance requires that your sample be representative of the population, but I'm struggling with this because if the class is an elective then the answer would be: <span>No, it is not a valid inference because she asked all 22 students in her science class instead of taking a sample of the students in her school.
BUT if the class is required, as most science classes are, then it WOULD be a random sample of the school. So the last option would be correct. 

My guess though is that the teacher is looking for answer B.

Slope intercept form of 12x-y=4
Nata [24]

Hey there! :)

Please keep in mind that slope-intercept form is : y=mx+b ; where m=slope, b=y-intercept

Using this, we can isolate y in our original given equation.

12x - y = 4

Start off by subtracting 12x from both sides.

-y = -12x + 4

Divide both sides by -1.

-y ÷ -1 = (-12x + 4) ÷ -1

Simplify!

y = 12x - 4

Therefore, using the slope-intercept form, we can come to the conclusion that because 12 is located in the "m" slot and "m=slope" then 12 is our slope. In addition, -4 is our y-intercept because it is located on the y position.

Slope = 12

Y-intercept = -4
