Answer:

The slope of the given line and a line parallel to it is 5/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Given:

−

is the standard form of a linear equation.

A line parallel to this line has the same slope. To determine the slope, solve for

to change the equation to slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b, where: m is the slope and b is they intercept.5x−2y=11

Subtract 5x from both sides. −2y=−5x+11

Divide both sides by −2. y=−5/−2x+11/2

Simplify. y=5/2 x −11/2

The slope of the given line and a line parallel to it is 5/2.

balandron [24]

Answer:

The first step is to determine the average

$x= \frac{0,6+0,7+ 0,7+0,3+0,4+ 0,5+ 0,4 +0,2}{8}\\\ x= 0,475$

The exercise says it’s a normal distribution: (n=8)

$s^{2}= \frac{1}{n-1} ((0,6.x)^2+2(0,7-x)^2+(0.3-x)^2+2(0.4-x)^2+(0.5-x)^2+(0.2-x)^2)\\\ \frac{1}{7}*0,235 = 0,0336 \\\\ s= 0183$

According to the exercise, the mean is equal to 0,5 then the value of t of the distribution can be obtained

$t= \frac{x-u}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }}\\\ t= \frac{0,475 - 0,5}{0,183}\\\ t= -0,3860$

The variable t has 7 grade to liberty, we calculate the p-value as:

$2* P(t < - 0,3860)= \\\ 2* 0,3554 = 0,7108$

This value is very high, therefore the hypothesis is not rejected
