Answer:

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have

$10x+4y=16$

Solve for y

That means -----> isolate the variable y

Subtract 10x both sides

$4y=16-10x$

Divide by 4 both sides

$y=(16-10x)/4$

Simplify

$y=4-\frac{5}{2}x$

Rewrite

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x+4$

Answer:

The answer is option (b), y=-5/2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form is a way of expressing the equation of a straight line; where there are two variables that vary in a linear form. The equation is always of the form; y=mx+c

Where;

y and x represents the variables on the y and x axis respectively
m is a real number representing the slope
c is also a real number representing the y-co-ordinate, where the line intercepts the y-axis

Solving for y in 10x+4y=16

(4y)/4=(-10x)/4+(16/4)

The answer is y=-5/2x+4, option (b)

Which triangle defined by three points on the coordinate plane is congruent with the triangle illustrated, and why?

HACTEHA [7]

The triangle defined by three points on the coordinate plane is congruent with the triangle illustrated:

C) (4,2); (8,2); (4,8) because the corresponding pairs of sides and corresponding pairs of angles are congruent.

If we plot these points we can observe that they are congruent, we should also solve for the distance of each point between each other to conclude their congruency.

Which of these statements describes a rebate?

sesenic [268]

The following statement describes a rebate -

A.) The Shopper receives a discount now and pays sales tax on the discounted price of the item.

Explanation:

This option is correct because a rebate is described as a discount and one gets its benefit when one pays the tax on the discounted item. The discount is given at the same moment and the tax is paid on the same price.

Let μ1 and μ2 denote true average densities for two different types of brick. Assuming normality of the two density distribution

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

a) $df= \frac{(\frac{0.161^2}{8} +\frac{0.25^2}{6})^2}{\frac{1}{8 -1} (\frac{0.161^2}{8})^2 +\frac{1}{6 -1} (\frac{0.25^2}{6})^2} = 8.03 \ approx 8$

b) $t=\frac{24.74-20.92}{\sqrt{\frac{0.161^2}{8}+\frac{0.25^2}{6}}}=32.688$

$p_v = 2*P(t_{8}>32.688)= 4.18x10^{-9}$

c) $ME= 2.306 \sqrt{\frac{0.161^2}{8}+\frac{0.25^2}{6}}= 0.269$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

For this case the satterthwaite approximation is given by:

$df= \frac{(\frac{s^2_1}{n_1} +\frac{s^2_2}{n_2})^2}{\frac{1}{n_1 -1} (\frac{s^2_1}{n_1})^2 +\frac{1}{n_2 -1} (\frac{s^2_2}{n_2})^2}$

And if we replace we got:

$df= \frac{(\frac{0.161^2}{8} +\frac{0.25^2}{6})^2}{\frac{1}{8 -1} (\frac{0.161^2}{8})^2 +\frac{1}{6 -1} (\frac{0.25^2}{6})^2} = 8.03 \ approx 8$

Part b

Data given and notation

$\bar X_{1}=24.74$ represent the mean for 1

$\bar X_{2}=20.92$ represent the mean for 2

$s_{1}=0.161$ represent the sample standard deviation for 1

$s_{2}=0.25$ represent the sample standard deviation for 2

$n_{1}=8$ sample size for 1

$n_{2}=6$ sample size for 2

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean for men it's higher than the mean for women, the system of hypothesis would be:

H0: $\mu_{1} = \mu_{2}$

H1: $\mu_{1} \neq \mu_{2}$

If we analyze the size for the samples both are lower than 30, and we don't know the population deviation's, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare means, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X_{1}-\bar X_{2}}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_{1}}{n_{1}}+\frac{s^2_{2}}{n_{2}}}}$ (1)

T-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

Calculate the statistic

We have all in order to replace in formula (1) like this:

$t=\frac{24.74-20.92}{\sqrt{\frac{0.161^2}{8}+\frac{0.25^2}{6}}}=32.688$

P value

For this case since we have a bilateral test and since we know the degrees of freedom calculated form part a we can find the p value like this:

$p_v = 2*P(t_{8}>32.688)= 4.18x10^{-9}$

And since the $p_v < \alpha$ we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance.

Part c

The margin of error for this case is given by:

$ME= t_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_{1}}{n_{1}}+\frac{s^2_{2}}{n_{2}}}$

We can find the critical value with the following excel formula:

"-=T.INV(0.025;8)"

$t_{\alpha/2}= 2.306$

And if we replace we got:

$ME= 2.306 \sqrt{\frac{0.161^2}{8}+\frac{0.25^2}{6}}= 0.269$
