Answer:

y = -3/2x +11

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to change the equation from standard form to slope form.

y = mx + b

2x-3y=7 --> subtract 2x from both sides

-3y = -2x + 7 --> now divide both sides by -3 to get y by itself

y = 2/3x - 7/3  --> the reason 2/3x is positive is because when there are two negatives it turns to a positive.

now you have to use point slope form y - y1 = m (x - x1)

x1 and y1 would be your point. 2 is x1 and 8 is y1

y - 8 = -3/2 (x - 2) --> the reason that m is -3/2 is because a perpendicular equation is the opposite reciprocal of the original slope

next distribute the -3/2

y-8 = -3/2x + 3 --> and now add 8 to 3 to get why by it self

now you have y = -3/2x + 11

The following data give the estimated prices of a 6-ounce can or a 7.06-ounce pouch of water-packed tuna for 14 different brands
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

a) Range = 1.39

b) the sample variance is 0.1597

c) the sample standard deviation is 0.3996

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) Find the range.

To determine the range, we simple subtract the smallest value from the largest value. i.e

Range = largest value - smallest value

from data set; our smallest is 0.53 while our largest value is 1.92

so

Range = 1.92 - 0.53 = 1.39

b) Find the sample variance.

To determine our variance, we use the following formula;

∑(X_{i} - x_{bar})² / n - 1 = [ ∑X_{i}²/n-1 ] - [ \frac{n}{n-1}(x_{bar})²]

where x_{bar} =  ∑X_{i}/n

n is sample size = 14 so lets calculate ∑X_{i}

∑X_{i} = 0.99 + 1.92 + 1.23 + 0.85 + 0.65 + 0.53 + 1.41  + 1.12 + 0.63 + 0.67 + 0.69 + 0.60 + 0.60 + 0.66

∑X_{i}  =  12.55    

∑X_{i}² = 0.99² + 1.92² + 1.23² + 0.85² + 0.65² + 0.53² + 1.41²  + 1.12² + 0.63² + 0.67² + 0.69² + 0.60² + 0.60² + 0.66²

∑X_{i}² = 13.3253

so

our  x_{bar} =  ∑X_{i}/n = 12.55 / 14 = 0.8964

so our Variance  will be;

= [ ∑X_{i}²/n-1 ] - [ \frac{n}{n-1}(x_{bar})²]

= [ 13.3253 / 14-1 ] - [ \frac{14}{14-1} (0.8964)²]

= 1.025 - 0.8653

= 0.1597

Therefore, the sample variance is 0.1597

c) Find the sample standard deviation.

we know that standard deviation is the square root of variance;

standard deviation = √Variance

standard deviation = √0.1597

standard deviation = 0.3996

Therefore, the sample standard deviation is 0.3996
