Answer:

slope is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=-5x+1$

This equation is in slope-intercept form:

$y=mx+b$

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

In the given equation, the slope is -5 and the y-intercept is 1.

Answer:

When the volume of a gas in a container varies inversely with the pressure on the gas and a container of nitrogen has a volume of 29.5 litres with 2000 psi. So, if the tank has a 14.7 psi pressure, then the volume of the tank would be 4013.6 litres.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a gas in a container varies inversely with the pressure on the gas. If a container of nitrogen has a volume of litres with psi, what is the volume if the tank has a psi pressure.

Calculate the volume to the nearest whole number.

Use the given values and calculate the proportionality constant as well as required solution.

Step 1 of 2

Write the inversely proportionality relation between the volume and pressure of a gas in container.

$v \propto \frac{1}{p}$

Where volume is represented by v and pressure is represented by p.

Remove the proportionality and place a constant say k.

$v=\frac{k}{p}$

Substitute the given values of nitrogen that v=29.5 and

p=2000 and calculate the value of k from above equation.

$\begin{aligned}&29.5=\frac{k}{2000} \\&\Rightarrow k=29.5 \times 2000 \\&\Rightarrow k=59000\end{aligned}$

Step 2 of 2

Substitute the value p=14.7 and above calculated k value in the equation

$\begin{aligned}&v=\frac{k}{p} . \\&v=\frac{59000}{14.7} \\&\Rightarrow v=4013.6\end{aligned}$

sattari [20]

Question in order:

The exact numbers of each color of Umbrella Corporation's most popular candy, W&Ws, naturally vary from bag to bag, but the company wants to make sure that the process as a whole is producing the five colors in equal proportions. Which of the following would represent the alternative hypothesis in a chi-squared goodness-of-fit test conducted to determine if the five colors of W&Ws occur in equal proportions?

a. H1: All of the proportions are different from 0.20

b. HI: p1 = P2 = p3 =P4=p5 = 0.20

c. H1: At least one proportion is not equal to 0.20

d. H1: At least two of the mean number of colors differ from one another.

e. HI: the number of candies per bag and candy color are dependent

Answer:

option C

Step-by-step explanation:

H1: At least one proportion is not equal to 0.20

What properties can be used to solve 7y-15=-29. Identity property of multiplication,addition property of equality ,distributive

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Addition Property of Equality.

Inverse property of multiplication.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

$7y-15=-29$

First of all, let us use Addition Property of Equality.

According to the property, if we add a number on both sides of an equality, there is no change in the equality.

In other words, the equality will be same if we add the same number on Left Hand Side and Right Hand Side of the equality.

First of all, let us add 15 on both sides of the equality:

$7y-15+15=-29+15\\\Rightarrow 7y=-14$

Now, let us Inverse property of multiplication.

i.e. Multiplication of a number with its inverse is equal to 1.

$a\times \frac{1}{a} = 1$

So, let us multiply the given equation with $\frac{1}7$

$7y \times \dfrac{1}{7}=-14 \times \dfrac{1}{7}\\\Rightarrow 1y =-2\\\Rightarrow y=-2$

The properties used are:

Addition Property of Equality.

Inverse property of multiplication.
