Answer:
a) negative
b) -7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The x value increased, but the y value decreased so the line goes down and has a negative slope
(y₁-y₂)/(x₁-x₂) is the slope where (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) are points on the line
(4-(-3))/(-1-5)=7/-6
Answer: in order to qualify, the time must be at least 15.93 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a random variable representing the average response times of fire departments to fire calls. Since it follows a normal distribution, we will determine the z score by applying the formula,
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = sample mean
µ = population mean
σ = population standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 12.8 minutes
σ = 3.7 minutes
in order to qualify for the special safety award, the probability value would be to the right of the z score corresponding to 80%
The z score corresponding to 80% on the normal distribution table is 0.845
Therefore,
0.845 = (x - 12.8)/3.7
0.845 × 3.7 = x - 12.8
3.13 = x - 12.8
x = 12.8 + 3.13 = 15.93
Answer:
375
Step-by-step explanation:

representing 2 successes and 3 failures. This term's value is</span>
<span>(5C2)(0.5^5)
= 10*0.03125 = 0.3125 = P(2 successes in 5 trials) =31.3% </span>
