Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
m = slope where
m = rise / run
rise = y2 - y1
run = x2 - x1
where
the given point P1 = (7, -12)
and is in the form of (x1,y1)
and
the given point P2 = (-9,36)
is in the form of (x2,y2)
then
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )
m = ( 36 - (-12) ) / ( -9 -7 )
m = ( 36 + 12 ) / ( - 16 )
m = 48 / - 16
m = - 3
the slope is negative 3
slope = - 3
I think the answer is 4/12 or 1/3
Answer:
The standard deviation of number of hours worked per week for these workers is 3.91.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by

After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem we have that:
The average number of hours worked per week is 43.4, so
.
Suppose 12% of these workers work more than 48 hours. Based on this percentage, what is the standard deviation of number of hours worked per week for these workers.
This means that the Z score of
has a pvalue of 0.88. This is Z between 1.17 and 1.18. So we use
.





The standard deviation of number of hours worked per week for these workers is 3.91.
22% = 22/100
22/100 * 14.50 = 3.19 (this is the amount discounted off original price)
14.50 - 3.19 = $11.31
