Answer:

2.0

Step-by-step explanation:

x = age

y = average systolic blood pressure

x₁ = 40 years old, y₁ = 110 systolic blood pressure

x₂ = 50 years old, y₂ = 130 systolic blood pressure

\text{Slope of a line}=m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\Rightarrow m= \frac{130-110}{50-40}\\\Rightarrow\frac{20}{10}\\\Rightarrow m= 2.0

∴ Slope of the regression line is 2.0

Let's attribute a to equal probability of 2 and b to equal probability of 3
A=54/360 B=62/360
"or" means you combine the probabilities which means that AvB =116/360
now simply divide 116 by 360 and you get your answer which is 0.32

B. 28 meters

You can see that the side opposite of 8 meters are all different sizes, but all three lengths, if you line them all up together, add up to 8 meters. So the two sides add up to 16 meters. Now the other two sides. You can apply the same thing that was said about the 8 meters to the 6 meters side. And then the other side is 3 meters, so you can find the missing length by doing 6-3 = 3 meters (or just see that it also equals six and you can just skip that).

So, now you have 8+8+6+6 (or 3+3, depending on which way you did it) = 28 meters.
