Answer:

y=-2x+160

Step by Step:

The equation of a line can be determined using the point slope formula:

y-y1=m (x-x1)

To make a substitution, we must ensure we have the correct information. The question gives:

y1=60

x1=50

y=1/2x+10 This is the formula of a line that is perpendicular to the one we are trying to find.

It tells us that the gradient of the perpendicular line is 1/2. The gradient of the line we are trying to find can be found using m1×m2=-1 because we know that when lines are perpendicular, the product of their gradients must equal 1

So if we replace m1 with 1/2

1/2×m2=-1

m2=-2

We now have all the relevant information to make a substitution:

y-60=-2 (x-50)

expand brackets

y-60=-2x+100

rearrange to get in the form y=mx+b

y=-2x+160

What’s the greatest mad
Nana76 [90]

Answer: Jason's team.

Step-by-step explanation: When finding the MAD, you need to find the mean of the data, which they said is 10.  The next step is to subtract numbers from the data from the mean, which is 10 for all three dot plots. For example, for Jason's team, we need to subtract all the 7's, 8's, 11's, 12's, and 13's, because those are the only parts of the plot with data.  Let's try subtracting 7 - 10.  The answer is -3, but we need to make it positive, because that's how data works, so it's actually 3.  You keep doing this for all three plots, which is provided below:

Jason's Team: 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3.

Hannah's Team: 3, 2, 2, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 3, 3.

Dion's Team: 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 3.

Now, the next step is adding all these values and dividing it by ten, since that's how many numbers there are for the data.

Jason's Team MAD: 2.4.

Hannah's Team MAD: 1.6.

Dion's Team MAD: 0.8

As you can see, Jason's Team has the greatest MAD, which is your answer.

Let me know if this is right! :)
