So we know the lines are parallel.
Thus, the equation should look something like this:
y = 5x + b

Now, we have to solve for b.
Plug x=1 and y=2 into the equation to solve for b
2 = 5 + b
Subtract both sides by 5
-3 = b
b = -3

Plug that value into the equation.
y = 5x - 3

That's your answer.
Have an awesome day! :)

Which of the following equations describe the line shown below?

frez [133]

Here, Slope (m) = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
m = 10 - 2 / 1 - (-3)
m = 8 / 4
m = 2

y - 10 = 2 (x - 1)
Also, y - 2 = 2(x + 3)

In short, Your Answers would be A & B

Hope this helps!

Explain why estimation is an important skill to know when adding and subtracting decimals.

Alla [95]

Estimation is a important skill to know when adding and subtracting decimals because if you estimate you have an idea on what your answer should be close to.

For example 4.68-2.38 could be 5-2 which is 3. 4.68-2.38 equals 2.3. 2.3 is close to 3.

The state education commission wants to estimate the fraction of tenth grade students that have reading skills at or below the e

Korolek [52]

Answer:

A sample of 499 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is given by:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In this question, we have that:

$\pi = 0.21$

90% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.1$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95$ , so $Z = 1.645$ .

How large a sample would be required in order to estimate the fraction of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level at the 90% confidence level with an error of at most 0.03

We need a sample of n, which is found when $M = 0.03$ . So
