Hey there!!
How do we find the equation of a line ?
Ans : We take the slope and the y - intercept and get them together.
How do you find slopes?
Ans - In order to find slop, we will need to use the slop formula which is
( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
The two points shown in the above question are
( 4 , -8 ) and ( 8 , 5 )
y₂ = 5 , y₁ = -8 and x₂ = 8 , x₁ = 4
Now plug in the values:
( 5 + 8 ) / ( 8 - 5 )
13 / 3
Hence, the slope is 13/3
The basic formula : y = mx + b
Where b is the y-intercept and m is the slope.
We have found the slope, hence, the formula would become
... y = 13/3 x + b
Now take a coordinate and substitute it .
I will take ( 8 , 5 )
x = 8 and y = 5
Now plug in the values
... 5 = 13/3 × 5 + b
... 5 = 65/3 + b
Subtract 65/3 on both sides
... 5 - 65/3 = b
... -50/3 = b
Hence, the y-intercept is -50/3
Now plug in all the values to get the total equation...
The final equation : y = 13x/3 - 50/3
... y = 13x - 50 / 3
Hope my answer helps!!
Answer: 5.83 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Sketching the data above,
Length of segment AD can be computed using Pythagoras rule ;
Where segment AD = hypotenuse
Segment AB = 3 = opposite
Sin Θ = opposite / hypotenuse
Sin 31° = 3 / hypotenuse
Hypotenuse × 0.5150380 = 3
Hypotenuse = 3 / 0.5150380
Hypotenuse = 5.8248120 units
Hypotenuse = 5.83 units
Answer:
A 90% confidence interval for <em>p</em> will be <u>narrower </u>than the 99% confidence interval.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to compute the (1 - <em>α</em>) % confidence interval for a population proportion is:

Here
is the sample proportion.
The margin of error of the confidence interval is:

The MOE is dependent on:
- Confidence level
- Standard deviation
- Sample size
The MOE is directly related to the confidence level and standard deviation.
So if any of the two increases then the MOE also increases, thus widening the confidence interval.
And the MOE is inversely related to the sample size.
So if the sample increases the MOE decreases and vice versa.
It is provided that the sample size and the sample proportion are not altered.
The critical value of <em>z</em> for 90% confidence level is:

And the critical value of <em>z</em> for 99% confidence level is:

So as the confidence level increases the critical value increases.
Thus, a 90% confidence interval for <em>p</em> will be narrower than the 99% confidence interval.
