Answer:

y-y1 = m (x-x1)

where

m is the slope

and (x1,y1) is one of the points given.

You have been given 2 points (-12,8) and (9,1). You can call one of them (x1,y1) and the other (x2,y2). It doesn't matter which one is which.

But before we go further, we need to determine the slope.

We can do this from the points as well.

y2-y1

m = ---------

x2-x1

Let's say

(x1,y1) = (-12,8)

(x2,y2) = (9,1)

This gives us a slope of

y2-y1 1-8 -7 -1

m = --------- = ---------- = ---- = ---

x2-x1 9-(-12) 21 3

Now that we have everything we need

y-8 = (-1/3)[x-(-12)]

Distribute the -1/3

y-8 = (-1/3)x -4

If we add 8 to both sides we have the equation in the slope intercept form (y=mx+b)

y = (-1/3)x + 4

1. A sample consists of 75 TV sets purchased several years ago. The replacement times of those TV sets have a mean of 8.2 years.
Greeley [361]

Answer:

8.2+/-0.25

= ( 7.95, 8.45) years

the 95% confidence interval (a,b) = (7.95, 8.45) years

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 8.2 years

Standard deviation r = 1.1 years

Number of samples n = 75

Confidence interval = 95%

z value(at 95% confidence) = 1.96

Substituting the values we have;

8.2+/-1.96(1.1/√75)

8.2+/-1.96(0.127017059221)

8.2+/-0.248953436074

8.2+/-0.25

= ( 7.95, 8.45)

Therefore the 95% confidence interval (a,b) = (7.95, 8.45) years

Which of the following conditions must be met in order to make a statistical inference about a population based on a sample
klasskru [66]

Answer:

For this case if we want to conclude that  the sample does not come from a normally distributed population we need to satisfy the condition that the sample size would be large enough in order to use the central limit theoream and approximate the sample mean with the following distribution:

\bar X \sim (\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

For this case the condition required in order to consider a sample size large is that n>30, then the best solution would be:

n>= 30
