If y varies directly with x, write an equation for the direct variation. then find each value.
1. if y= - 12 when x=9, find y when x= - 4
2. find y when x=10 if y= 8 when x= 20
3. if y= -6 when x= -14, find x when y= -4

Formulate the indicated conclusion in nontechnical terms. be sure to address the original claim. the foundation chair for a hospital claims that the mean number of filled overnight beds is over 523, and she is therefore justified starting a funding campaign to add a wing to the hospital. assuming that a hypothesis test has been conducted and that the conclusion is failure to reject the null hypothesis, state the conclusion in nontechnical terms.
