Complete the equation of the line through (2,1) and (5,-8)
Mila [183]

First we calculate the slope (which is called "m".

Slope = m = (Y2 -Y1) ÷ (X2 -X1)

m = (-8 -1) / (5 -2) = -9 / 3 = -3

We next fill in this equation: b = y -mx

We know m = -3 and we can choose a point (2, 1) to calculate "b"

b = 1 --3 * 2 b = 7

Putting this into y = mx +b

y = -3x +7

A business major wants to determine whether the variation in advertising costs of hair salons is different from the variation in
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Test value = 3.49

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

S_1 = \$ 23, n_1 = 12\\S_2 = \$ 43, n_2 = 8

Alpha, α = 0.05

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \sigma_1^2 = \sigma_2^2\\H_A: \sigma_1^2 \neq \sigma_2^2

We use F-test to determine the difference in variation between the two samples.

Formula:

F_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{S_2^2}{S_1^2}\\\\(As ~S_2 > S_1)

Putting all the values, we have

F_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{1849}{529} = 3.49

Now, F_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance, degree of freedom(8-1,12-1)} = 3.01

Comparison:    

F_{stat} > F_{critical}

We reject the null hypothesis and accept  the alternate hypothesis.

Thus, there is  variation in advertising cost of salon and the advertising cost of nails.

3(7x+4)-x as an infinite equation
Sidana [21]

Answer: 20x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the three: 3(7x+4) will be changed to 21x+12-x

Next group like terms, -x+21x=20x

The new equation will be 20x+12
