A contractor is building a new subdivision on the outside of a city. He has started work on the first street and is planning for the other streets to run in a direction parallel to the first. The second street will pass through (−2, 4). Find the equation of the location of the second street in standard form. coordinate grid with a segment labeled Street 1 that extends between the points negative 5 comma 6 and three comma negative 2; a point labeled Street 2 is at negative 2 comma 4 a 2x + y = 2
b x − y = 2
c 2x − y = 2
d x + y = 2

Farmers know that driving heavy equipment on wet soil compresses the soil and injures future crops. here are data on the "penetrability" of the same type of soil at two levels of compression. penetrability is a measure of how much resistance plant roots will meet when they try to grow through the soil. compressed soil 2.85 2.66 3 2.82 2.76 2.81 2.78 3.08 2.94 2.86 3.08 2.82 2.78 2.98 3.00 2.78 2.96 2.90 3.18 3.16 intermediate soil 3.17 3.37 3.1 3.40 3.38 3.14 3.18 3.26 2.96 3.02 3.54 3.36 3.18 3.12 3.86 2.92 3.46 3.44 3.62 4.26 use the data, omitting the high outlier, to give a 95% confidence interval for the decrease in penetrability of compressed soil relative to intermediate soil. compute degrees of freedom using the conservative method. interval: to
