A line includes the points (-3, 8)and (-1, 2). What is its equation in slope- intercept form

1 answer:

5 0

Solve for slope first:
m = $\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

m = $\frac{2-8}{-1-(-3)}$ = -3

then solve for b in y = mx + b

8 = -3(-3) + b
b = -1

y = -3x - 1

Let’s assume that human body temperatures are normally distributed with a mean of 98.20° F and a standard deviation of 0.62° F.

uysha [10]

Answer: It is such a small percentage of the population that would be considered to have fever at that level.

So, it is not appropriate stringent standard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 98.20°F

Standard deviation = 0.62°F

If Bellevue Hospital in New York City uses 100.6°F as the lowest temperature considered to be a fever.

So, $\bar{X}=100.6^\circ F$

So, using the normal distribution, we first find the value of z.

$z=\dfrac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\x=\dfrac{100.6-98.2}{0.62}\\\\z=3.87$

Since z = 3.87

So, p = 0.0001 =0.1%

So,It is such a small percentage of the population that would be considered to have fever at that level.

So, it is not appropriate stringent standard.
