You're given the slope of the line and a point thru which the line passes.  So it makes sense to use the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line:  if the point is (a,b) and the slope is m, then 

y-b=m(x-a).  You'd then solve this for y to obtain the equation in slope-intercept form.

On the other hand, if you're asked to write the equation in slope-intercept form, starting with the general form of this equation may be faster:  y=mx+b.

Substitute the given values for x and y (which are 25 and -9) and m (which is (2/5).  Solve the resulting equation for b (the y-intercept).

Then write the finished equation:  y=( ? )x + b, where b is the y-intercept you've just found.

The value of the z statistic for the considered data is given by: Option A: -3.87 approximately.

<h3>How to find the z score (z statistic) for the sample mean?</h3>

If we're given that:

  • Sample mean = \overline{x}
  • Sample size = n
  • Population mean = \mu
  • Sample standard deviation = s

Then, we get:

z = \dfrac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}

If the sample standard deviation is not  given, then we can estimate it(in some cases) by:

s = \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

where \sigmapopulation standard deviation

For this case, we're specified that:

  • Sample mean = \overline{x} = 2.3
  • Sample size = n = 15
  • Population mean = \mu  = 2.7
  • Population standard deviation = \sigma = 0.4

Thus, the value of the z-statistic is evaluated as:

z = \dfrac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{2.3- 2.7}{0.4/\sqrt{15}} \approx -3.87

Thus, the value of the z statistic for the considered data is given by: Option A: -3.87 approximately.

marin [14]
Surface area of the the rectangles:
8 * 5 + 8 * 4 + 8 * 3 = 96

Surface area of the two triangles:
Use bh/2 base time height over 2
(4 * 3)/2 = 6
There are 2 triangles, 2 * 6 = 12

12 + 96 = 108
