First, solve for slope.
Formula for slope: \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}
Plug in values:\frac{-5-7}{0-2} =  \frac{-12}{-2} = 6
Slope: 6
Second, we must plug into point-slope form. 
Formula for point-slope: y - y1 = m(x-x1)
Plug in the values: y - 7 = 6(x-2)
Solve. 
y - 7 = 6(x-2) 

y - 7 = 6x - 12

Add 7 both sides. 

y = 6x - 5
So the equation is: y = 6x - 5

((-5) - 7) / (0-2) = slope because equation for slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1. Then the y-intercept is already given. So slope is -12/-2 = 6 so, y= mx + b, meaning mx is slope of -6x and b being -5. Therefore the equation is y = -6x - 5. Hope this helps!

In 2008, there were 507 children in Arizona out of 32,601 who were diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) ("Autism and de
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of ASD in Arizona is (0.014, 0.018).

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is as follows:

x=507\\n=32601\\\text{Confidence level }=99\%

The sample proportion is:

\hat p=\frac{x}{n}=\frac{507}{32601}=0.016

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 99% confidence level is, <em>z</em> = 2.56.

Compute the 99% confidence interval for the proportion of ASD in Arizona as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

    =0.016\pm 2.58\cdot\sqrt{\frac{0.016(1-0.016)}{32601}}\\\\=0.016\pm 0.0018\\\\=(0.0142, 0.0178)\\\\\approx (0.014, 0.018)

Thus, the 99% confidence interval for the proportion of ASD in Arizona is (0.014, 0.018).

What’s the probability?
son4ous [18]

Answer:

\frac{1}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability for a flip on either side of the coin is always 50% or \frac{1}{2}

So to get the probability for the three flips just do:

(\frac{1}{2}) ^{3}  or \frac{1}{2} × \frac{1}{2} × \frac{1}{2}

Either way you solve it the answer is \frac{1}{8}
