It's a nonlinear because the x and y values are not increasing at the same ratio each time. This would be an example of a linear function:
x l 1 2 3 4 5 6
y l 3 6 9 12 15 18
As x increases by 1, y increases by a multiple of 3
Roper is not using a simple random sample. The samples are calculated to get 500 males and 500 females. This would be very unlikely or improbable to take place in a simple random sample. The design that they are using is a stratified sampling (dividing the population into groups) with 2 strata and these are the males and females.
Answer:
Equation shown
Step-by-step explanation:
Eq(1): x-3y=-12
X=-12+3y
=-4+y
Eq(2): x-3y=-6
X=-6+3y
=-2+y
Answer:
The inverse function is 
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is
.
This function is only invertible on the interval,
.
To find the inverse on this interval, we interchange
and
.

We now make
the subject to get,



But the given interval is
, This implies that,
.

Answer:
y = x -7
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 2y = 14
The slope intercept form is
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
Subtract 2x from each side
2x - 2y -2x = -2x+14
-2y = -2x+14
Divide each side by -2
-2y/-2 = -2x/-2 +14/-2
y = x -7
The slope is 1 and the y intercept is -7
