For the data set, the mean is 3.26 and the range is 1.5.
The data is transformed by subtracting 0.5 from each data value.
Mean is also average of the data set. As a general rule the mean will be changed by adding or subtracting a constant to each value. However the range will remain the same.
The mean would be 3.26 - 0.5 = 2.76
There is no change in the range, so the range would be same = 1.5
Answer <u>(assuming it can be in point-slope form)</u>:
Step-by-step explanation:
With the given information, we can use the point-slope formula, , to write the equation of the line. Substitute values for the , , and in the formula to do so.
The represents the slope, so substitute in its place. The and represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, so substitute -6 for and -8 for . This gives the following answer and equation (just make sure to convert the double negatives into positives:
