First subtract 8.5 from both sides, then divide the -1.2 to get x by itself
x=1.5
B.) Hibiscus Street
The key thing to remember is the slope of the lines. The equation for a line in slope intercept form is
y = ax + b
where
a = slope
b = y intercept
So the equation for Oak Street is y = 2/3x - 7. So it's slope is 2/3. And any street that has the same slope will be given a tree name. And any street that's perpendicular will be given a flower name. You can determine is a line is perpendicular if it has a slope that's the negative reciprocal. So a street that's perpendicular to Oak street will have a slope of -3/2.
Now you've just been given the equation to a new street that's y = -3/2x - 2. Since the slope is -3/2 and Oak street has a slope of 2/3, the new street is perpendicular to Oak street. And given the naming scheme, that means that the new street will have the name of a flower. So let's look at the available street names and pick a flower.
<span>
A.) Weeping Willow Street
* Nope a Weeping Willow is a tree. So this name won't work.
B.) Hibiscus Street
* Yes. A Hibiscus is a flower, so this name is suitable.
C.) Oak Street
* Nope. Not only is this a tree instead of a flower, but there's already an Oak street. So bad choice.
D.) Panther Street
* Nope, this is an animal, not a flower. Bad choice.

The correct answer is: <span>D. The regression line is not a good model because the points in the residual plot form a curve. (i know this because i just passed the test ;) )</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
General slope intercept form equation of straight line is given as
where m is slope and b is y-intercept
here m=24 and b=-5
Therefore
$250 c+ $ 180 g > $ 950
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
As a cryptographer (c), Miyoko earns per day = $ 250
As a geologist (g) , Miyoko earns per day = $ 180
So the equation comes to be $250 c+ $ 180 g = $ 950
The equation can be rewritten to find c as, (950-180 g) / 250
The equation can be rewritten to find g as, (950 - 250 c) / 180
Plugin different values of c and g in the above 2 equations, we can find that ,
To achieve the goal, Miyoko requires to be a geologist for 3 days and crpytographist for 2 days.
