Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a graph is also known as its gradient, which is the steepness of the graph.
If we are given two points on the line, we can find the slope by taking rise/ run, which is the ratio of the change in y-coordinate against the change in the x-coordinate. This can also be written as a formula:
☆ (x₁, y₁) is the first coordinate and (x₂, y₂) is the second coordinate
In this question, we are given the equation of the line. This equation is already in the slope-intercept form (y= mx +c) since the coefficient of y is 1 and all the other terms are on the other side of the equal sign. In the slope-intercept form, m is the slope while c is the y-intercept.
m= ⅘ since the coefficient of x is ⅘ in the given equation (when the equation is in the slope-intercept form).

Answer:
And rounded up we have that n=385
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".
The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
Solution to the problem
In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by 
and 
. And the critical value would be given by:
The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:
(a)
And on this case we have that 
and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
(b)
We can use as an estimator for p 
. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:
And rounded up we have that n=385
Answer:
66.76% probability that the levee will NEVER fail in the next 20 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each year, there are only two possible outcomes. Either a levee fails during the year, or no levees fail. In each year, the probabilities of levees failing are independent from each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
In which 
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
And p is the probability of X happening.
In this problem we have that:
A levee was designed to protect against floods with an annual exceedance probability of 0.02. This means that 
What is the risk that the levee will NEVER fail in the next 20 years?
This is 
when 
. So
66.76% probability that the levee will NEVER fail in the next 20 years.
