What is the x-coordinate of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 2:5? x = (StartFraction m Over m + n EndFraction) (x 2 minus x 1) + x 1

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The image and whole question is attached.

The end point are:

J(-6, -2)

K(8, -9)

We need to divide the segment in ratio 2:5

The formula is:

m and n are the ratio, hence

m = 2

n = 5

x_2 = 8

x_1 = -6

Substituting, we get the x-coordinate:

a

step-by-step explanation:

answer: 33 ( approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, in the linear regression formula, the slope is the a in the equation y = b + ax ( by comparing it with the general equation of line y = mx + c )

where,

here given table is,

price ($), x   :           18         23       25       29       30       33

pairs sold, y :         16         13         10       8         6       2

so, ,   ,   ,

and   ,

thus, slop of the given line is,

⇒  

⇒   ≈ 33
