Answer: 0.7748

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Number of bit bulls at the pound = 18

Number of pit bulls have attacked another dog in the last year =4

The proportion of pit bulls have attacked another dog in the last year:p=\dfrac{4}{18}\approx0.22

Number of the pit bulls selected = 6

The probability of that none of the pit bulls in Joe's group attacked another dog last year :  P(0)=(1-0.22)^6=0.225199600704\approx0.2252

By using binomial , the probability that at least one of the pit bulls in Joe's group attacked another dog last year is given by :-

P(x\geq 1)=1-P(x

Hence, the required probability = 0.7748

Heather was asked to graph 3x - y = -4 by using slope and y-intercept. Her graph is shown.

Hello! The y-intercept is (0, 4), because the line crosses 0 in the x-axis at that point. We can cross out C and D, because those don't show that. The slope is rise/run. You would go up 3, and go to the right once. If you need to, solve for slope by doing y2 - y1/ x2 - x1. Let's use the point (0, 4) and (1, 7) as an example. We would set it up like this: 7 - 4 / 1 - 0. Solving that would give us 3/1 or just simply three. The slope is positive 3 and the y-intercept is (0, 4). The answer is A.
