Answer:   y = \frac{4}{5}x-\frac{3}{5}

m = 4/5 is the slope

b = -3/5 is the y intercept

====================================

First find the slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-3 - 1)/(-3 - 2)

m = -4/(-5)

m = 4/5

Then use point-slope form

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\\\\y - 1 = \frac{4}{5}(x - 2)\\\\y - 1 = \frac{4}{5}x + \frac{4}{5}(-2)\\\\y - 1 = \frac{4}{5}x - \frac{8}{5}\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}x - \frac{8}{5} + 1\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}x - \frac{8}{5} + \frac{5}{5}\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}x + \frac{-8+5}{5}\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}x - \frac{3}{5}\\\\

The equation is in the form y = mx+b with m = 4/5 as the slope and b = -3/5 as the y intercept.

Katy's favorite rides at the amusement park are the roller coasters and water slide. The wait time for the roller coaster is 25
ioda

Answer:

She went on the slide 8 times and on the roller coaster 4 times

Step-by-step explanation:

We convert each statements to a mathematical equation.

Firstly, let's represent the number of times she went on the coaster with R and the number of times on the slide with S. We know quite well she went on 12 rides. Hence the summation of both number of times yield 12.

Mathematically, R + S = 12. ........(i)

Now we also know her total wait time was 3hours. Since an hour equals 60 minutes, her total wait time would equal 180 minutes.

To get a mathematical representation for the wait time, we multiply the number of roller coaster rides by 25 and that of the slides by 10.

Mathematically, 25R + 10S = 180 .......(ii)

Here we now have two equations that we can solve simultaneously.

From equation 1 we can say R = 12 - S. We can then substitute this into equation 2 to yield the following:

25(12 - s) + 10s = 180

300 - 25s + 10s = 180

300 - 25s + 10s = 180

300 - 15s = 180

15s = 300 - 180

15s = 120

S = 120/15

S = 8

S = 8 , and R = 12 - S = 12 - 8 = 4

The ages of armadillos are normally distributed, with a mean of 14 years and a standard deviation of 1.2. Approximately what per
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = 79.052%f using Standard Normal Distribution Tables

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know from normal distribution: z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD

where x = targeted value; Mu = Mean of Normal Distribution; SD = Standard Deviation of Normal Distribution

Therefore using given data: Mu = 14, SD = 1.2 we have z(x) by using z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD as under:

Approach 1 using Standard Normal Distribution Table:

z for x=17: z(17) = (17-14)/1.2 gives us z(17) = 2.5

z for x=13: z(13) = (13-14)/1.2 gives us z(13) = -0.83

Afterwards using Normal Distribution Tables we find the probabilities as under:

P(17) using z(17) = 2.5 gives us P(17) = 99.379%

Similarly we have:

P(13) using z(13) = -0.83 gives us P(13) = 20.327%

Finally in order to find out the probability between 17 & 13 years we have:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = P(17) - P(13) = 99.379% - 20.327% = 79.052%

The standard normal distribution table is being attached for yours easiness.

Approach 2 using Excel or Google Sheets:

P(17) = norm.dist(17,14,1.2,1)

P(13) = norm.dist(13,14,1.2,1)

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = { P(17) - P(13) } * 100
