Answer:

The slope is -\frac{1}{5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Choose 2 points on the graph.

(7,3) and (2,2)

Use slope formula: \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

\frac{2-3}{2-7}=\frac{-1}{-5}

The slope is -\frac{1}{5}.

Answer:

\frac{1}{5} or 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope refers to the gradient of the line.

There is a formula to find the gradient of a line where m is the gradient:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1}}

So, we will take two points on the line.

Let's take our first point as (-3, 1) and our second as (7, 3).

Let's work with the y values.

The first y value is 1 and the second y value is 3.

So, in the numerator, they would look like 3 - 1.

Let's work with the x values.

The first x value is -3 and the second x value is 7.

So, in the denominator, this would look like 7--3.

Let's use these in the fraction and work out our answer:
m = \frac{3-1}{7--3} = \frac{2}{10} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2

Therefore, our final answer is \frac{1}{5} or 0.2.

Hip Breadths and Aircraft Seats
Engineers want to design seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit 98% of all males. (Accommodating 100% of males would be too expensive.) Men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.4 in. and a standard deviation of 1.0 in. Find P 98. That is, find the hip breadth for men that separates the smallest 98% from the largest 2%.
