Write an equation of a line with the given slope and y-intercept (8,1)m=-1/2

1 answer:

5 0

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
first plug in m
y=-1/2X + b
now plug in the point (8,1) for the x and the y
1=-1/2(8) + b

now you need to solve for b
simplify
1=-4+ b
add 4
5=b

now that you know b
you can plug it into the equation along with the m

so the answer is
y=-1/2X + 5

The weekly earnings of students in one age group are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 47 dollars. A researcher

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Option D) 340

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = $47

Margin of error = 5

95% Confidence Interval:

$\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$\text{Margin of error} = z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Putting the values, we get,

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96$

$5 = 1.96(\dfrac{47}{\sqrt{n}} )\\\\\sqrt{n} = \dfrac{47\times 1.96}{5}\\\\n = 339.443776\\\Rightarrow n \approx 340$

Thus, the correct answer is

Option D) 340
