Answer:
y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is written in the form y=mx+b. Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
When there isn't a slope, as in the line is flat and it isn't moving up or down, you wouldn't write anything for it. You would just write y equals the y-intercept (y = b).
Likewise, if the y-intercept is at (0,0), then you'd only write y equals the slope (y = mx).
Hopefully this makes sense :)
Btw, I also answered in the main comments earlier, so you can check that out as well.
If you would like to simplify 6 * (-5), you can do this using the following steps:
6 * (-5) = - (6 * 5) = - 30
The correct result would be - 30.
Answer:
Almost 2.5% of the students spent more than $275 in a semester.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 235
Standard deviation = 20
According to the standard deviation rule, almost 2.5% of the students spent more than what amount of money on textbooks in a semester?
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean. The other 5% are more than 2 standard deviations of the mean. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, 2.5% of those are below two standard deviations of the mean and 2.5% are more than two standard deviations above the mean.
235 + 2*20 = $275
Almost 2.5% of the students spent more than $275 in a semester.
