Y = mx + b
m is your slope AKA rate of change
b is the y intercept.
from the graph we can see that the y intercept (b) is 15. (look at the y axis and see what point the line crosses on the y, here it is 15, in-between 10 and 20)
slope is rate of change. to figure this out remember slope = rise over run:
so pick two points. how much does one point rise after the other point you picked? In the graph it rises 1 square so rise = 1
Now looking at the same two points, how far away from each other are they on the x axis? Looking at the graph they are 2 squares away from each other. so run = 2
Now plug these numbers into the rise over run formula:
Now we have everything we need to put into our formula for a line:
For number 16 you should get:
after you do the same steps again yourself

Answer:
The travel time that separates the top 2.5% of the travel times from the rest is of 91.76 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Mean of 80 seconds and a standard deviation of 6 seconds.
This means that
What travel time separates the top 2.5% of the travel times from the rest?
This is the 100 - 2.5 = 97.5th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.975, so X when Z = 1.96.
The travel time that separates the top 2.5% of the travel times from the rest is of 91.76 seconds.
