Answer:

The slope = 1/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form for a straight line is

y = mx + c where m is the slope

So in this case m = 1/6.

A recent survey of 50 executives who were laid off during a recent recession revealed it took a mean of 26 weeks for them to fin

g100num [7]

Answer: $(24.28,\ 27.72)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample size : $n=50$

Sample mean : $\overline{x}=26$

Standard deviation : $\sigma =6.2$

Significance level : $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$

Critical value : $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Formula to find the confidence interval for population mean :-

$\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=26\pm(1.96)\dfrac{6.2}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\\approx26\pm1.72\\\\=(26-1.72,\ 26+1.72)\\\\=(24.28,\ 27.72)$

Hence, a 95% confidence interval for the population mean = $(24.28,\ 27.72)$

Solve the system algebraically.<br> 3x - 2y - 1 = 0 y = 5x + 4 <br> What is the solution?

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

$x=\frac{-9}{7}$

$y=\frac{-17}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the equation:

$3x-2y-1=0$

And $y=5x+4$

Second equation can be rewritten as:

$5x-y=-4$

We will solve the equations:

$3x-2y=1$ (1)

$5x-y=-4$ (2)

Multiply equation (1) by 5 and equation (2) by 3 we get:

$15x-10y=5$ (3)

$15x-3y=-12$ (4)

Now, subtract (4) from (3) we get:

$-7y=17$

$y=\frac{-17}{7}$

Now substitute $y=\frac{-17}{7}$ in equation (1) we get:

$3x-2{\frac{-17}{7}}=1$

$3x+\frac{34}{7}=1$

$21x=-27$

$x=\frac[-27}{21}$

$x=\frac{-9}{7}$

How many solutions are there to the following equation?

swat32

Answer:

D, infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

1. multiply out

5(x-3) = 5x-15

2. combine like terms

5x-15-3x=8x-15-6x = 2x-15=2x-15

they are equal so there are infinite solutions.
