2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of any line in standard form, Ax + By = C is -A/B.

Divide each term by 3 and simplify.

3y = 2x - 6

3y / 3 = y

2x / 3 = 2/3x

6 / 3 = 2

So, y = 2 / 3 x - 2

slope or gradient = 2/3

Explanation:

The first step in finding the slope of a line that is written in standard form is to write the equation in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b. To do this, rearrange the variables. The standard form, Ax + By = C can be rewritten as By = -Ax + C.

Divide by B to simplify

In the equation By = -Ax + C, B needs to be distributed through the equation. To do this, divide both sides by B. The answer is y = (-A/B)x + C/B.

Find the slope

Once the equation of the line is in slope-intercept form and is simplified, then the slope equals the term in front of the x variable. In the standard form from step 2, the slope is -A/B.

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity". that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both. the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature. this has important considerations for the human body's comfort. when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off. if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature. evaporation is a cooling process. when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature. when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases. in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions. the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases. the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions. there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).

step-by-step explanation:

75% of the temperatures are below what value? how do you know? 75% of the temperatures are above w

Use a calculator to verify that σ(x) = 62, σ(x2) = 1034, σ(y) = 644, σ(y2) = 93,438, and σ(x y) = 9,622. compute r. (enter a number. round your answer to three decimal places.) as x increases from 3 to 22 months, does the value of r imply that y should tend to increase or decrease? explain your answer. given our value of r, y should tend to increase as x increases. given our value of r, we can not draw any conclusions for the behavior of y as x increases. given our value of r, y should tend to remain constant as x increases. given our value of r, y should tend to decrease as x increases.
